It is because of the way you were using inotifywait.
will wait for the create event in /some/dir, report that event and exit.
. . .
Yes, but shouldn't the for fullname in /HOTFOLDER/*.xlsx then run across ALL files present? Or do you think it's a race / timing problem? Why, then, would the 4th (i.e. the last) file be treated only?

Hi
I'm going to write a program in C language to watch activity on file system
in SCO UNIX openserver 5.0.6.
Apparently Linux provide an API called "inotify" , I'm wondering what's the SCO UNIX package for this ? (1 Reply)

I would like to unzip some files with a for-loop.
Is there anyone who could tell me how I should do this - in a correct way?

The problem is the pipe - I believe. But how could I do it? I need it for the command... (4 Replies)

ppmtopgm(1) General Commands Manual ppmtopgm(1)NAME
ppmtopgm - convert a portable pixmap into a portable graymap
SYNOPSIS
ppmtopgm [ppmfile]
DESCRIPTION
Reads a portable pixmap as input. Produces a portable graymap as output. The output is a "black and white" rendering of the original
image, as in a black and white photograph. The quantization formula used is .299 r + .587 g + .114 b.
Note that although there is a pgmtoppm program, it is not necessary for simple conversions from pgm to ppm , because any ppm program can
read pgm (and pbm ) files automatically. pgmtoppm is for colorizing a pgm file. Also, see ppmtorgb3 for a different way of converting
color to gray. And ppmdist generates a grayscale image from a color image, but in a way that makes it easy to differentiate the original
colors, not necessarily a way that looks like a black and white photograph.
QUOTE
Cold-hearted orb that rules the night
Removes the colors from our sight
Red is gray, and yellow white
But we decide which is right
And which is a quantization error.
