Yikes true, happened because i had commented out the lower line in the testfile.
You asked why i added the ./
Currently have:
Code:
+ tui $ bin/tui-conf-get -s tmp list
one two three four five six
+ tui $ bin/tui-conf-get tmp list
1 2 3 4 5 6
+ tui $ cat tmp
variable=value # unwanted commend
list="one two three four five six" # bad comment
list='1 2 3 4 5 6'
I tried to also remove single quotes with the awk, and appended a tail, but it fails:
LC_ALL=C bin/tui-conf-get -s tmp list
bin/tui-conf-get: line 136: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `"'
bin/tui-conf-get: line 138: syntax error: unexpected end of file
My script needs to read a variable from the user. But before the user types the input, I want to give a default value so the user can edit the default value for input.
How can I implement it?

setup
setup(1) setuptool setup(1)NAME
setup - A text mode system configuration tool
SYNOPSIS
setup
DESCRIPTION
The setuptool program (setup) is a front-end menu program for a group of other tools, mostly system-config-*-tui tools. The list of options
which it presents is assembled by scanning /etc/setuptool.d and /usr/share/setuptool/setuptool.d for files.
Each file in the directory should contain one or more lines of text. Each line contains from one to four fields which are separated by "|"
characters. In order, they are:
- the path to the binary to invoke (mandatory)
- the untranslated name of the application which should be displayed
(If unset, defaults to the path of the binary, but don't depend on that.)
- the gettext textdomain in which a translation of the name of the application can be found
(If unset, defaults to "setup".)
- the directory in which translations for the textdomain can be found
(If unset, defaults to "/usr/share/locale".)
If multiple entries with the same untranslated name exist, the one which was read FIRST takes precedence. Files are read in name collation
order.
EXAMPLE
A contrived example would create /etc/setuptool.d/00bogus with these contents:
/bin/ls --color; /bin/sleep 5|Example "ls" invocation.
or
/bin/ls --color; /bin/sleep 5|Give this help list|libc
to use one of libc's (not meaningful here, but) translatable messages.
