Echoing

I was just wondering how you would echo out different length variables but still have them all line up. I tried putting tabs between the variables but that didn't work as planned. For example this is in some loop, with different variables in it each time: echo "$1 $2 $3 $4 $5" Appears like...

Echoing silently?

I know, sounds mutually exclusive :-) I have a script where I ask for a password and store it in a variable, and then use it with sudo on an array of other hosts. The password winds up being choed back to my terminal as well as to the process on the remote host, like: Attempting to update...

getopt::long::descriptive::usage

Getopt::Long::Descriptive::Usage(3)			User Contributed Perl Documentation		       Getopt::Long::Descriptive::Usage(3)

NAME

       Getopt::Long::Descriptive::Usage - the usage description for GLD

VERSION

       version 0.096

SYNOPSIS

	 use Getopt::Long::Descriptive;
	 my ($opt, $usage) = describe_options( ... );

	 $usage->text; # complete usage message

	 $usage->die;  # die with usage message

DESCRIPTION

       This document only describes the methods of the Usage object.  For information on how to use Getopt::Long::Descriptive, consult its
       documentation.

METHODS

   new
	 my $usage = Getopt::Long::Descriptive::Usage->new(\%arg);

       You really don't need to call this.  GLD will do it for you.

       Valid arguments are:

	 options     - an arrayref of options
	 leader_text - the text that leads the usage; this may go away!

   text
       This returns the full text of the usage message.

   leader_text
       This returns the text that comes at the beginning of the usage message.

   option_text
       This returns the text describing the available options.

   warn
       This warns with the usage message.

   die
       This throws the usage message as an exception.

	 $usage_obj->die(\%arg);

       Some arguments can be provided

	 pre_text  - text to be prepended to the usage message
	 post_text - text to be appended to the usage message

       The "pre_text" and "post_text" arguments are concatenated with the usage message with no line breaks, so supply this if you need them.
