I guess I'm really missing something here. Why do you believe that an array is needed here? Why not just keep a running total as you gather numbers? This is written assuming ksh, but should work for any POSIX-conforming shell (not csh and not tcsh):
Is there a command that sets a variable length?
I have a input of a variable length field but my output for that field needs to be set to 32 char.
Is there such a command?
I am on a sun box running ksh

Given a line of text in ksh:
string1 string2 string3 .....stringn
is there a way of automatically assigning each string to an array element? Or just different variables would do.
Thanks,

Hi,
I have an issue where i run an command in a shell script.
command >/dev/null
ret=$?
echo ret
If the command returns an error i'm redirecting it to /dev/null.
The prob is if an error comes it expects the user to press return to continue.
And hence the return is not echoed. and the end... (4 Replies)
