Operating Systems Solaris Display Message Question Post 302878019 by MattyJ2009 on Wednesday 4th of December 2013 09:08:59 AM
Old 12-04-2013
I was wanting just a command or two to get the output. I was going to try to use:

Code:
dmesg | grep `date +%b%e`

Code:
dmesg | grep `TZ=GMT+24 date +%b%e`

But it doesn't want to work (at least on the first nine days of the month).

NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename... DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code: (-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked. EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified. AUTHOR
