Hi all,
I am parsing command line options using getopts.
The problem is that mandatory argument options following ":" is taking next option as argument if it is not followed by any argument.
Below is the script:
while getopts :hd:t:s:l:p:f: opt
do
case "$opt" in

Hello everyone,
Is it possible to use getopts and also receive arguments without option flags?
e.g. myscript arg1 arg2 -a arg3 -b arg4
If so, how do you stop getopts from exiting as soon as it detects the non-option arguments? (2 Replies)

Hello,
Does getopts have some way of handling the use of an option that requires a parameter more than once on the command line.
e.g. mycmd -a john -a jane
I came up with a solution using arrays (shown below), but wonder if getopts has some other way of handling it. Other solutions... (2 Replies)
I have a script with several options and during testing I found that the \? option does not handle options without dashes as I would expect. Then I run the script with any option that does not include a dash, it runs the script when I would expect \? to catch it and error.
I've tried this with... (2 Replies)

I use the "getopts" ksh built-in to handle command-line options, and I'm looking for a clean/standard way to "unset" an option on the command line. I don't know if this is a technical question about getopts or more of a style/standards question. Anyway, I understand that getopts processes its... (4 Replies)
Hello everyone,

}

Hi,
I installed some packages required by an app built with python.
But when I try python setup.py install, I get the following error:

env
ENV(1) BSD General Commands Manual ENV(1)NAME
env -- set and print environment
SYNOPSIS
env [-i] [name=value ...] [utility [argument ...]]
DESCRIPTION
env executes utility after modifying the environment as specified on the command line. The option name=value specifies an environmental
variable, name, with a value of value. The option '-i' causes env to completely ignore the environment it inherits.
If no utility is specified, env prints out the names and values of the variables in the environment, with one name=value pair per line.
EXIT STATUS
env exits with one of the following values:
0 utility was invoked and completed successfully. In this case the exit code is returned by the utility itself, not env. If no util-
ity was specified, then env completed successfully and returned the exit code itself.
1 An invalid command line option was passed to env.
1-125 utility was invoked, but failed in some way; see its manual page for more information. In this case the exit code is returned by the
utility itself, not env.
126 utility was found, but could not be invoked.
127 utility could not be found.
COMPATIBILITY
The historic - option has been deprecated but is still supported in this implementation.
SEE ALSO execvp(3), environ(7)STANDARDS
The env utility conforms to IEEE Std 1003.2-1992 (``POSIX.2'').
BUGS
env doesn't handle commands with equal (``='') signs in their names, for obvious reasons.
