I have a program that is designed to take the first parameter (a file extension) and use it to rewrite the file stored in the second paramerter with the new extension. And if the current file does not exist then the program will print an error message "No such file."
For example, my program is chExt.sh and if the first parameter is the extension 'txt' and my second paramter is the current file name 'marcopolo.grp' then the program would rewrite the file to 'marcopolo.txt'
When executing the program like this ./chExt.sh 'txt' 'marcopolo.grp'
the program successfully rewrites the file to 'marcopolo.txt'
When executing the program like this ./chExt.sh 'cpp' 'batman.FIG'
the program successfully rewrites the file to 'batman.cpp'
The problem I am having is if the second parameter is a file name with the special character "$" in the extension...
For example, ./chExt.sh 'bar' 'fo$o.b$r' does not successfully rewrite the file name to what it should be (fo$o.bar).
My current script is...
Code:
#!/bin/csh
set ext="$1"
shift
echo the remaining are $*
foreach file (${*:q})
echo $file
if (-r "$file") then
set newName=`echo "$file" | sed 's/\.[A-Za-z0-9]*$/'".$ext"'/g'`
echo $newName
if ( "$file" == "$newName" ) then
:
else
mv "$file" "$newName"
endif
end
else
echo "$file": No such file
end
endif

LEARN ABOUT PHP
parse_str
PARSE_STR(3) 1 PARSE_STR(3)parse_str - Parses the string into variablesSYNOPSIS
void parse_str (string $str, [array &$arr])
DESCRIPTION
Parses $str as if it were the query string passed via a URL and sets variables in the current scope.
Note
To get the current QUERY_STRING, you may use the variable $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']. Also, you may want to read the section on vari-
ables from external sources.
Note
The magic_quotes_gpc setting affects the output of this function, as parse_str(3) uses the same mechanism that PHP uses to populate
the $_GET, $_POST, etc. variables.
PARAMETERS
o $str
- The input string.
o $arr
- If the second parameter $arr is present, variables are stored in this variable as array elements instead.
RETURN VALUES
No value is returned.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
Using parse_str(3)
<?php
$str = "first=value&arr[]=foo+bar&arr[]=baz";
parse_str($str);
echo $first; // value
echo $arr[0]; // foo bar
echo $arr[1]; // baz
parse_str($str, $output);
echo $output['first']; // value
echo $output['arr'][0]; // foo bar
echo $output['arr'][1]; // baz
?>
