Hi,
I'm writing a KSH script, and at one point, I have to call a new shell and perform some variable assignments.
I noticed that the assignment is not working.
Please see two samples below:
Command 1:
#>ksh "i=2;echo I is $i"
Output:
#>I is
Command 2:
#>ksh <<EOF
> i=2
> echo I... (7 Replies)
I have a very tough shell program to do. Here is the assignment:
Write a non-interactive script that takes in any number of directory names as arguments and calculates and outputs the total number of blocks of disk space occupied by the ordinary files in all the directories. For example, the... (0 Replies)

I have a program that I want the user to input date. When the user inputs the date, is it able to format it to system date dd-mm-yyy and then echo the value into a text file?

If the above is not going to work, I tried to have the system date appear in the user input field and... (6 Replies)
Hi guys,
I'm basically looking for some help with a bash script I've written. It's purpose is to assign process to individual CPU cores once that process hits 15% CPU usage or more. If it drops below 15%, it's unassigned again (using taskset).
My problem is that I can't think of a way to... (2 Replies)
Here's the assignment. I'll bold the parts that are rough for me. Unfortunately, that's quite a bit lol. The syntax is, of course, where my issues lie, for the most part. I don't have a lot of programming experience at all :/. I'd post what I've already done, but I'm so lost I really don't know... (1 Reply)

Suppose I have a file named Stuff in the same directory as my script. Does the following assign the file Stuff to a variable?
Var="Stuff"
Why doesn't this just assign the string Stuff? Or rather how would I assign the string Stuff to a variable in this situation?
Also, what exactly is... (3 Replies)
I have come across a weird behaviour in bash and would love to get to the bottom of it. If I execute echo -e "\na\nb\nc\n" at the command line, I get:
a
b
c
However, if I wrap it in an assignment such as:
A="$( echo -e "\na\nb\nc\n" )"then I get
a

I have a little code block (executing on AIX 7.1) that I cannot understand why the NOTFREE=0 does not appear to be assigned even though it goes through that block. This causes a unary operator issue.

build-lives-rfx-plugin(1) General Commands Manual build-lives-rfx-plugin(1)NAME
build-lives-rfx-plugin - builds rendered effects for LiVES
SYNOPSIS
build-lives-rfx-plugin script_name [plugin_dir] -get section file
DESCRIPTION
This perl script is used by LiVES to compile an RFX (rendered effect) plugin for LiVES. It is generally called from build-lives-rfx-plugin-
multi for a script which has a language code representing LiVES-perl. The script_name must be the full (absolute) path to the plugin
script, and plugin_dir can be used to specify the output directory where the compiled plugin should be generated. If plugin_dir is not
defined then /tmp is assumed.
The second variant with -get is used to print out a script section from a plugin script to stdout. It is generally only used internally by
LiVES.
Return values The script returns the following values
0 - success 1 - the value of a trigger was greater than the number of parameters 2 - a value could not be read from the script file 3 - the
language code of the plugin script was not equivalent to LiVES-perl 4 - the API version level of the plugin script was invalid 5 - the
<define> section was missing from the plugin script
