1 Command - 2 Behaviours and a wrong false message
Heyas

As there was a splitting issue with TUI 0.6.6-x focused around tui-status since the 'solaris' (not really but for that purpose) update, the urge was given to do this first.

Well, the splitting 'bug' should be fixed, i hope.
But i've found a new one.

When i start the very same script in two diffrent ways, it one time works, the other time it dont.

One script is called by the WM named 'Awesome':
LUA (rc.lua):
Code:
...
	terminal = "lxterminal"
	term_cmd = terminal .. " -e "
...
	 { "BG: NASA iotd", term_cmd .. awful.util.getdir("config") .. "/scripts/nasaBackground-new2.sh",  },

And the other time i call it like:
Code:
./scripts/nasaBackground-new2.sh

So basicly, i call it two times the same way.
Right?

During this test phase, i check if the first argument is numeric, by this (bash):
Code:
		check=$(echo "$1" | tr -d [:digit:])
		if [[ -z "$check" ]] && [[ ! -z "$1" ]] 		# && echo $1 | grep -q [0-9]
		then	echo "all numbers:: $1" > /dev/zero
		else	echo "First argument $1 ($check) is not numeric!"
			exit 1
		fi

But see this (wide!):
https://sea.fedorapeople.org/review/...rs_4_small.jpg
I also checked wether there was a leading or tailing space, by changing to ~ "first argument .$1. is not numeric", there is not.

While writing the post, i've added the ($check) is not numeric, and reran the script, for some reason i dont understand or see in the code, it seems than when the script is started by 'lua' - the interface, the values are bogus: "$check" = "$1"

Any idea why?
- or how i could fix this please?

Thank you in advance.

locale::codes::script

Locale::Codes::Script(3pm)				 Perl Programmers Reference Guide				Locale::Codes::Script(3pm)

NAME

       Locale::Codes::Script - standard codes for script identification

SYNOPSIS

	  use Locale::Codes::Script;

	  $script  = code2script('phnx');		      # 'Phoenician'
	  $code    = script2code('Phoenician'); 	      # 'Phnx'
	  $code    = script2code('Phoenician',
				 LOCALE_CODE_NUMERIC);	      # 115

	  @codes   = all_script_codes();
	  @scripts = all_script_names();

DESCRIPTION

       The "Locale::Codes::Script" module provides access to standards codes used for identifying scripts, such as those defined in ISO 15924.

       Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default ISO 15924
       four-letter codes will be used.

SUPPORTED CODE SETS

       There are several different code sets you can use for identifying scripts. A code set may be specified using either a name, or a constant
       that is automatically exported by this module.

       For example, the two are equivalent:

	  $script = code2script('phnx','alpha');
	  $script = code2script('phnx',LOCALE_SCRIPT_ALPHA);

       The codesets currently supported are:

       alpha, LOCALE_SCRIPT_ALPHA
	   This is a set of four-letter (capitalized) codes from ISO 15924 such as 'Phnx' for Phoenician.  It also includes additions to this set
	   included in the IANA language registry.

	   The Zxxx, Zyyy, and Zzzz codes are not used.

	   This is the default code set.

       num, LOCALE_SCRIPT_NUMERIC
	   This is a set of three-digit numeric codes from ISO 15924 such as 115 for Phoenician.

ROUTINES

       code2script ( CODE [,CODESET] )
       script2code ( NAME [,CODESET] )
       script_code2code ( CODE ,CODESET ,CODESET2 )
       all_script_codes ( [CODESET] )
       all_script_names ( [CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::Script::rename_script  ( CODE ,NEW_NAME [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::Script::add_script  ( CODE ,NAME [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::Script::delete_script  ( CODE [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::Script::add_script_alias	( NAME ,NEW_NAME )
       Locale::Codes::Script::delete_script_alias  ( NAME )
       Locale::Codes::Script::rename_script_code  ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::Script::add_script_code_alias  ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] )
       Locale::Codes::Script::delete_script_code_alias	( CODE [,CODESET] )
	   These routines are all documented in the Locale::Codes::API man page.
