I have a script which take 3 input parameters
1st - a date (i.e. current date)
2nd - type (i.e. A)
3rd - limit (i.e. 40)
normally the date parameter would be current date, so I thought I could do this
calculate.sh $(date +%Y-%m-%d) A 40
however, it seems like it can't be done,... (3 Replies)

anybody know a nice way to parse long input parameters such as --path /dir1/dir2/ (see below). Now I have more than 10 input parameters and it's confusing having parameters like -q something, I would prefer longer ones
case $OPTKEY in
--path) M_PATH=$OPTARG ;;

Hi All,
I have tried to use ckdate (sun) command in script. It checks the input parameter which should be in 'YYYYMMDD format.
date=$( echo $1 | ckdate -f "%Y%m%d") | true
if ]
then
print " success"
else
print "no success"
fi
But in whatever format i pass the parameter,... (3 Replies)
I have to write a script to verify input parameters;
say esr should be YES or NO other wise the script should print an error.
This is what i tried in my script but I get the following error
:
esr="YES"
if ; then
print " Error should specify esr options YES/NO"
else
esr =$esr
fi

Hi,
I am facing a weird problem with input parameters. Please find more details about my problem below:
a) I am executing a korn shellscript with 11 input parameters from "Appworx" tool (it's a scheduling tool) and immediately displaying those 11 parameter values in unixscript and noticed... (4 Replies)
Hi
I wrote a script which lists the content of a given directory.
I have just one problem. If you give 2 or more parameters, then it gives a strange error. After that error, it gives also an error from my script, but normally it shouldn't give that error.
Here's my script.You can test it.

Hi,
Is there a simple way to take input of parameters after the first one? As following example, if I assign others=$2, it only takes the second one, if I assign others=$@, it will include the first one. I may try to assign others="$2 $3 $4 $5 $6 $7 $8 $9", it looks very ugly and could missing... (1 Reply)

ppmtosixel
ppmtosixel(1) General Commands Manual ppmtosixel(1)NAME
ppmtosixel - convert a portable pixmap into DEC sixel format
SYNOPSIS
ppmtosixel [-raw] [-margin] [ppmfile]
DESCRIPTION
Reads a portable pixmap as input. Produces sixel commands (SIX) as output. The output is formatted for color printing, e.g. for a DEC
LJ250 color inkjet printer.
If RGB values from the PPM file do not have maxval=100, the RGB values are rescaled. A printer control header and a color assignment table
begin the SIX file. Image data is written in a compressed format by default. A printer control footer ends the image file.
OPTIONS -raw If specified, each pixel will be explicitly described in the image file. If -raw is not specified, output will default to com-
pressed format in which identical adjacent pixels are replaced by "repeat pixel" commands. A raw file is often an order of magni-
tude larger than a compressed file and prints much slower.
-margin
If -margin is not specified, the image will be start at the left margin (of the window, paper, or whatever). If -margin is speci-
fied, a 1.5 inch left margin will offset the image.
PRINTING
Generally, sixel files must reach the printer unfiltered. Use the lpr -x option or cat filename > /dev/tty0?.
BUGS
Upon rescaling, truncation of the least significant bits of RGB values may result in poor color conversion. If the original PPM maxval was
greater than 100, rescaling also reduces the image depth. While the actual RGB values from the ppm file are more or less retained, the
color palette of the LJ250 may not match the colors on your screen. This seems to be a printer limitation.
