Hope the title is close enough; didn't quite know how to put this...
OK.
We have a hypothetical script, script.a, with one simplistic line:
Code:
bash ./nextDir/script.b
Now script.b has a bit more going for it; and does file moves, copies, and renames, calling all the targets with respect to itself.
Manually running script.b from a command prompt at its dir is no problem; all moves, copies, and renames are executed on the targets without issue.
OTOH, running script.b from script.a changes the effective recursion level for script.b to that of script.a; and nothing executes properly...
So, I guess this is a rock-bottom basic question, but the answer eludes me: How do we create a script.a which calls script.b without changing its recursion level?

Hi all,
I'd like to create a directory tree, and define from stdin how many levels deep and how many directories in each level should be created.
What I wrote does not work properly:#!/bin/bash

Hi All
I'm using a tree command in a script that for me outputs:-

However a different user is getting the following output:-

Hi,
I cannot find a way to copy a directory to another location with all attributes (mode, ownership, timestamps) but withOUT recursion (after so many years of working with Linux).

build-lives-rfx-plugin
build-lives-rfx-plugin(1) General Commands Manual build-lives-rfx-plugin(1)NAME
build-lives-rfx-plugin - builds rendered effects for LiVES
SYNOPSIS
build-lives-rfx-plugin script_name [plugin_dir] -get section file
DESCRIPTION
This perl script is used by LiVES to compile an RFX (rendered effect) plugin for LiVES. It is generally called from build-lives-rfx-plugin-
multi for a script which has a language code representing LiVES-perl. The script_name must be the full (absolute) path to the plugin
script, and plugin_dir can be used to specify the output directory where the compiled plugin should be generated. If plugin_dir is not
defined then /tmp is assumed.
The second variant with -get is used to print out a script section from a plugin script to stdout. It is generally only used internally by
LiVES.
Return values The script returns the following values
0 - success 1 - the value of a trigger was greater than the number of parameters 2 - a value could not be read from the script file 3 - the
language code of the plugin script was not equivalent to LiVES-perl 4 - the API version level of the plugin script was invalid 5 - the
<define> section was missing from the plugin script
