Thanks, bakunin. I'm new to the Korn shell, so had no idea about these nuances. I see that ksh93 is in the OpenBSD package repository, so I'll install it and see how it's different from pdksh.
Neo, I will give VSC/IntelliSense a try. If it makes CPP easier to read and work with, I will probably really like it.
In the meantime, I'm back to bash for when I want to work and not play/explore. I find that having this in my .bashrc gives me exactly the behavior I expect (namely, any time I press Enter in a terminal, the shell's idea of the history matches exactly what is in my HISTFILE--no more, no less):
Code:
PROMPT_COMMAND="history -a; history -c; history -r"
hello everyone!
Very basic question for the guru's in here but anyways, I am trying to type a command that is longer than the line. What character do I use to continue my command on the next line?
Thanks in advance....

Hi Guys,
Our user crontab files are located at /var/spool/cron/crontabs.
I have to make some modifications to it.
I have all the crontab entries in a file called 'crontab.actual'. I made changes to this file and now I want to reload these changes from the crontab.actual file to my crontab... (12 Replies)
What is the command for checking modification history on file?

Let me rephrase this. On a regular Unix file can I at least check to see the time and date history modification of the file? (6 Replies)

Hello :)
I'm a newb when it comes to shell scripting and was wondering about a command(s) for a script that could be used to checkout a certain number of version/revision histories of a file. I know for the latest revison you "co filename" or for a certain revision number "co -r*.* filename"... (2 Replies)

Please advise.

I am making a bash script right now and am running into an issue. As I am new to scripting, I do not know exactly what to do to get what I'm looking for in my script.
Essentially, my script will automatically input VRFY common names after nc

condor_convert_history
condor_convert_history(1) General Commands Manual condor_convert_history(1)Name
condor_convert_history Convert - the history file to the new format
Synopsis
condor_convert_history[-help]
condor_convert_historyhistory-file1[history-file2...]
Description
As of Condor version 6.7.19, the Condor history file has a new format to allow fast searches backwards through the file. Not all queries
can take advantage of the speed increase, but the ones that can are significantly faster.
Entries placed in the history file after upgrade to Condor 6.7.19 will automatically be saved in the new format. The new format adds infor-
mation to the string which distinguishes and separates job entries. In order to search within this new format, no changes are necessary.
However, to be able to search the entire history, the history file must be converted to the updated format. condor_convert_historydoes
this.
Turn the condor_schedddaemon off while converting history files. Turn it back on after conversion is completed.
Arguments to condor_convert_historyare the history files to convert. The history file is normally in the Condor spool directory; it is
named history . Since the history file is rotated, there may be multiple history files, and all of them should be converted. On Unix plat-
form variants, the easiest way to do this is:
cd `condor_config_val SPOOL`
condor_convert_history history*
condor_convert_historymakes a back up of each original history files in case of a problem. The names of these back up files are listed;
names are formed by appending the suffix .oldver to the original file name. Move these back up files to a directory other than the spool
directory. If kept in the spool directory, condor_historywill find the back ups, and will appear to have duplicate jobs.
Exit Status
condor_convert_historywill exit with a status value of 0 (zero) upon success, and it will exit with the value 1 (one) upon failure.
