Top Forums UNIX for Beginners Questions & Answers How to have local shell variables in a ksh script seen on remove server in SSH block? Post 303036280 by vgersh99 on Friday 21st of June 2019 10:22:02 AM

DJR,
this is not what I suggested and not how to assign/use/display local vs remote vars - please reread my original post.
Code:
filepath=/xxx/yyy/zzz/
filename=xyz

ssh -q uid@hostname " \
. \
. \
myRemoteVar='foo' \
echo here's my remoteVar->[\${myRemoteVar}] \
if [[ -e ${filepath}/${filename} ]]; then
.... \
.... \
fi " < /dev/null

# the \${vars} are variables to be evaluated on the REMOTE host

GIMP-REMOTE(1)							 GIMP Manual Pages						    GIMP-REMOTE(1)

NAME
gimp-remote - tells a running GIMP to open a (local or remote) image file. SYNOPSIS
gimp-remote [-h] [--help] [-v] [--version] [--display display] [-e] [--existing] [-q] [--query] filename ... DESCRIPTION
gimp-remote is a small utility that tells a running GIMP to open one or more (local or remote) image files. It does so by searching for a GIMP toolbox on the active display. If it can find a GIMP toolbox, a synthetic drop event is created which makes GIMP think the files would have been dropped onto the toolbox. More than one filename or URL can be specified on the commandline. If no GIMP window is found, gimp-remote will start a new GIMP instance and ask it to load the specified images. If no filename or URL is given, gimp-remote will start a new GIMP. This behaviour can be altered using the command-line options described below. OPTIONS
gimp-remote accepts the following options: -h, --help Display a list of all commandline options. -v, --version Output the version info. --display display Use the designated X display. -e, --existing If no running GIMP instance is found, don't start a new one but exit. -q, --query Check if GIMP is running and exit. A status code of 0 indicates that a GIMP toolbox window has been found on this display. EXAMPLES
gimp-remote http://www.gimp.org/images/wilber_the_gimp.png Loads the image from the GIMP website into a running GIMP or starts a new one. gimp-remote wilber.xcf wilma.xcf Loads the local files wilber.xcf and wilma.xcf into a running GIMP or starts a new one. ENVIRONMENT
DISPLAY to get the default host and display number. AUTHORS
