suppose the output of a select query is two fields : 546 3003; these two values should be assigned as variables in a update query;
< select br_cd,txn_id from ttable > the output will be 546 3003.
these two variables should be applied in a update query
< update utable set ... where br_cd= and txn_id= . like that without splitting
by awk.

Before I even attempt this, is it possible to grep for a pattern, maybe a partial sentence like "go to page 3", assign that to a variable and then use awk or something to pull out the 3 and assign it to a variable? So first I would have Gotopg = "go to page 3" then page = 3 (9 Replies)

gtk-update-icon-cache

gtk-update-icon-cache(1)					   User Commands					  gtk-update-icon-cache(1)

NAME

       gtk-update-icon-cache - Icon theme caching utility

SYNOPSIS

       gtk-update-icon-cache [--force] [--help] [--ignore-theme-index] [--index-only] [--source=name] [--quiet] [--validate] [iconpath]

DESCRIPTION

       gtk-update-icon-cache creates cache files for icon themes that can be used with mmap(2).

       It  expects  to	be  given the path to an icon theme directory containing an index.theme file, e.g.  /usr/share/icons/hicolor, and writes a
       icon-theme.cache containing cached information about the icons in the directory tree below the given directory.

       GTK+ can use the cache files created by gtk-update-icon-cache to avoid a lot of system call and disk seek  overhead  when  the  application
       starts. Since the format of the cache files allows them to be mmap()ed shared between multiple applications, the overall memory consumption
       is reduced as well.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       -f, --force		       Overwrite an existing cache file even if it appears to be up to date.

       -?, --help		       Show help options.

       -t, --ignore-theme-index        Do not check for the existence of 'index.theme' in the icon theme directory.   Without  this  option,  gtk-
				       update-icon-cache  refuses  to create an icon cache in a directory which does not appear to be the toplevel
				       directory of an icon theme.

       -i, --index-only 	       Do not include image data in the cache

       -c, --source=name	       Output a C header file declaring a constant name with the contents of the icon cache.

       -q, --quiet		       Turn off verbose output.

       -v, --validate		       Validate existing icon cache.

OPERANDS

       The following operands are supported:

       iconpath 	       The path to an icon theme directory containing an index.theme file.

EXIT STATUS
