That depends on what the question is. Were it "save old user files before copying (instead of overwrite)", then copying should occur in either case. But then still the elif were too many - put the for loop outside/after the if branch.

Hi,
I need to convert user-input from '(this)' to '\(this\)' before passing it to egrep. I've tried using TR, SED and NAWK to add the backslash, but the most I ever get is a backslash without a '(' or ')'.
Any ideas?
Thanks! (13 Replies)

xmclipboardendretrieve
XmClipboardEndRetrieve(library call) XmClipboardEndRetrieve(library call)
NAME
XmClipboardEndRetrieve -- A clipboard function that completes retrieval of data from the clipboard
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/CutPaste.h>
int XmClipboardEndRetrieve (display, window)
Display * display;
Window window;
(void)
DESCRIPTION
XmClipboardEndRetrieve suspends copying data incrementally from the clipboard. It tells the clipboard routines that the application is
through copying an item from the clipboard. Until this function is called, data items can be retrieved incrementally from the clipboard
with XmClipboardRetrieve. The act of copying data is started with the XmClipboardStartRetrieve function.
display Specifies a pointer to the Display structure that was returned in a previous call to XOpenDisplay or XtDisplay.
window Specifies the window ID of a widget that relates the application window to the clipboard. The widget's window ID can be obtained
with XtWindow. The same application instance should pass the same window ID to each of the clipboard functions that it calls.
RETURN
XmClipboardSuccess
The function was successful.
XmClipboardLocked
The function failed because the clipboard was locked by another application. The application can continue to call the function
again with the same parameters until the lock goes away. This gives the application the opportunity to ask if the user wants to
keep trying or to give up on the operation.
