Hi,
Last 2 weeks I have searched many forums and i haven't found the answer for the question:
How to get all command output to Putty title?
Needed it for other programs to know when some jobs on a server is done and is it done right or wrong. Plink stdout and stdin wasn't working, i used many tweaks with wait delays and for some commands that worked for others not. XSEL and XCLIP couldn't be installed on that server.
So here is the solution:
1. Get command output in a file.
2. Echo that file to title.
on putty client and suse server it looks like this:
Hopefully someone will be able to use this. It won't work for all server types and putty client settings, of course, but the idea should work well.
Best
Jacek

I have a Perl script that changes the terminal window title and I would like to reset it to the original value when I am done. We are using Putty which emulates xterm.

simplexml_load_string
SIMPLEXML_LOAD_STRING(3) 1 SIMPLEXML_LOAD_STRING(3)simplexml_load_string - Interprets a string of XML into an objectSYNOPSIS
SimpleXMLElement simplexml_load_string (string $data, [string $class_name = "SimpleXMLElement"], [int $options], [string $ns = ""],
[bool $is_prefix = false])
DESCRIPTION
Takes a well-formed XML string and returns it as an object.
PARAMETERS
o $data
- A well-formed XML string
o $class_name
- You may use this optional parameter so that simplexml_load_string(3) will return an object of the specified class. That class
should extend the SimpleXMLElement class.
o $options
- Since PHP 5.1.0 and Libxml 2.6.0, you may also use the $options parameter to specify additional Libxml parameters.
o $ns
- Namespace prefix or URI.
o $is_prefix
- TRUE if $ns is a prefix, FALSE if it's a URI; defaults to FALSE.
RETURN VALUES
Returns an object of class SimpleXMLElement with properties containing the data held within the xml document, or FALSE on failure.
Warning
This function may return Boolean FALSE, but may also return a non-Boolean value which evaluates to FALSE. Please read the section on
Booleans for more information. Use the === operator for testing the return value of this function.
ERRORS /EXCEPTIONS
Produces an E_WARNING error message for each error found in the XML data.
Tip
Use libxml_use_internal_errors(3) to suppress all XML errors, and libxml_get_errors(3) to iterate over them afterwards.
EXAMPLES
Example #1
Interpret an XML string
<?php
$string = <<<XML
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<document>
<title>Forty What?</title>
<from>Joe</from>
<to>Jane</to>
<body>
I know that's the answer -- but what's the question?
</body>
</document>
XML;
$xml = simplexml_load_string($string);
print_r($xml);
?>
The above example will output:
SimpleXMLElement Object
(
[title] => Forty What?
[from] => Joe
[to] => Jane
[body] =>
I know that's the answer -- but what's the question?
)
At this point, you can go about using $xml->body and such.
