So i am trying to read in file
readFile <GivenFile> modFile
looking for a regular file under the directories in the GivenFile and print them out is my over all goal.
basically I am looking for anything that looks like a directory in the given file and printing it out.
Since I am trying to do this in baby steps because I have never worked with perl.
in my file I have something like
as of now you can see I dont have anything remotely checking to see if this is regular file or not.
Ive been reading all over the net and my book notes, feeling a little bit of heat here because ive been running into little hick ups here and there.
THanks for reading.
I have a program which I wish to modify. It used to be run from the command line, but now I wish to change this so it can be used as a function.
The program has complex argument processing so I want to pass my paramters to as if it were being called by the OS as a program.
I have tried to... (2 Replies)
I searched on the forums. No advises.
I am using a previous source code. I changed the main function main(int argc, char **argv) in a function misc(int argc, char **argv). How do you use the argc and argv parameters? This is how I am calling the function :
char param;
strcat(param,"wgrib ");... (4 Replies)
I have a script that asks a bunch of questions using the following method for input:
print "Name:";
while(<>){
chomp;
$name=$_;
}
So for example, if the questions asked for name, age, & color (in that order)... I want to be able to easily convert $ARGV into the input expected by... (2 Replies)
Hi C experts,
I have the following code for adding command line option for a program
int main (argc, argv)

this is in one of my scripts...
if ($#argv == 0) then
echo 'blah bla'
exit 0

I want it to be something like this...
if ($#argv == 0 OR $argv >=3)
echo 'blah bla'
exit 0
endif
so when the arguments are none, or greater than three I want this "if then" to take over. how? I... (5 Replies)
Hello all,

echo enter an value:
set val= "$<"
if($#argv == 0) then
echo No args
else
echo The arg is $argv
so if a value is inputted #argv... (1 Reply)

I'm working on my own pow function and I need to make a copy of *argv but
I think that I am having trouble with the size of *argv and the size of any array that I
make. The code below isn't working for me. and I want to accept any number no
matter the size with pow -f 2 2. I was working out... (16 Replies)
All of my machines (various open source derivatives on x86 and amd64) store argv above the stack (at a higher memory address). I am curious to learn if any systems store argv below the stack (at a lower memory address).
I am particularly interested in proprietary Unices, such as Solaris, HP-UX,... (9 Replies)

fmt
FMT(1) BSD General Commands Manual FMT(1)NAME
fmt -- simple text formatter
SYNOPSIS
fmt [-Cr] [goal [maximum]] [name ...]
fmt [-Cr] [-g goal] [-m maximum] [name ...]
DESCRIPTION
fmt is a simple text formatter which reads the concatenation of input files (or standard input if none are given) and produces on standard
output a version of its input with lines as close to the goal length as possible without exceeding the maximum. The goal length defaults to
65 and the maximum to 75. The spacing at the beginning of the input lines is preserved in the output, as are blank lines and interword spac-
ing. In non raw mode, lines that look like mail headers or begin with a period are not formatted.
-C instructs fmt to center the text.
-g goal New way to set the goal length.
-m maximum New way to set the maximum length.
-r Raw mode; formats all lines and does not make exceptions for lines that start with a period or look like mail headers.
fmt is meant to format mail messages prior to sending, but may also be useful for other simple tasks. For instance, within visual mode of
the ex(1) editor (e.g., vi(1)) the command
!}fmt
will reformat a paragraph, evening the lines.
SEE ALSO mail(1), nroff(1)HISTORY
The fmt command appeared in 3BSD.
BUGS
The program was designed to be simple and fast - for more complex operations, the standard text processors are likely to be more appropriate.
