Its resulting the below output.
. When I execute the command in host1 its not waiting for input. Any idea friends?
I can't tell you why it isn't waiting on host1, but i suppose it is simply not there (or not in the path, not flagged executable, ....). I can tell you, though, why your connection to the host is closed afterwards:
Normally, when you start a process B from another process A , A sets up B as its "child process": B will be started, executed and when it ends, its return value will be presented to A for evaluation.
With the command exec this changes: A, in fact, will start B in its own environment (the one of A) and the exit immediately so that B effectively replaces A. Because you replaces your login shell with the little script you wrote (which in turn ended) your connection was simply closed the same way it would have been if you had ended the login shell otherwise (like by pressing "CTRL-D", entering "exit", etc.).

How can I use the exec command to log my korn shell session to the screen and the log file?
Currently I have this command:
$exec 1> ${LOG} 2>&1
This logs the output to the log file only. I want it to go to the screen also. Is this possible with this command?
thanks. (10 Replies)
Hello Experts,
I am on Solaris 10
Due to some limitations in one of the vendor software, I am forced to output the command to exec and then run it from there.
For example..
$(echo "/usr/bin/cp a.dat b.dat") # This works
However,
$(echo "/usr/bin/cat a.dat > c.dat") # This does not... (8 Replies)

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.
