Hello,
I am a bit puzzled by the way my shell treats spaces in filenames.
An example will be way clearer than any explanation I can make:
$ ls test\ file\ with\ spaces
test file with spaces
$ var="test\ file\ with\ spaces"
$ echo $var
test\ file\ with\ spaces
$ ls $var
ls: cannot... (4 Replies)
In a Korn shell script I have,
cat ../header | sed -e 's/flag1/$cnumb/g' > header.txt
The header is short
{{Company flag1}}
But the result in header.txt is
{{Company $cnumb}}
The value of $cnumb is 120. I am trying to get the value of $cnumb into the header.
I have tried /'$cnumb'/g,... (10 Replies)
Hi
Don't know if this is a dummy question, but let's give it a try.
I yesterday had a problem with undefined behaviour in the sort shell command (I'm using bash), leading to different sort orders without apparent reasons. I resolved this by typing
export LC_ALL="C"
export LC_COLLATE="C"... (5 Replies)

Hello all. This is my first post/question on this site.
I’m a new Systems Analyst with previous experience with BASH. Although now I'm using AIX, and I’m trying to get a feel for the Korn shell (for those of you that don’t know AIX only uses the KORN shell).
I hope I put this into the correct... (10 Replies)
Hi there.
I'm facing a strange & an intriguing behaviour with sed while replacing the tab character with a space reading from a file. It randomly works sometimes but mostly doesn't work.
Below is what's happening-
<tab> here is the actual literal tab.
user1> cat temp2
1<tab>2<tab>3 4... (2 Replies)

shcomp
SHCOMP(1) Korn shell utilities SHCOMP(1)NAME
shcomp - compile a shell script
SYNOPSIS
shcomp [ options ] [infile [outfile]]
DESCRIPTION
Unless -D is specified, shcomp takes a shell script, infile, and creates a binary format file, outfile, that ksh can read and execute with
the same effect as the original script.
Since aliases are processed as the script is read, alias definitions whose value requires variable expansion will not work correctly.
If -D is specified, all double quoted strings that are preceded by $ are output. These are the messages that need to be translated to
locale specific versions for internationalization.
If outfile is omitted, then the results will be written to standard output. If infile is also omitted, the shell script will be read from
standard input.
OPTIONS
[D dictionary] Generate a list of strings that need to be placed in a message catalog for internationalization. [n noexec] Displays warn-
ing messages for obsolete or non-conforming constructs. [v verbose] Displays input from infile onto standard error as it reads it.
EXIT STATUS
0
Successful completion.
>0
An error occurred.
