Real question being what is the purpose of running
:wq inside script ?

.....
Above command helps to save the file even if it open.
.....
Can you elaborate on this ?
How does
:wq make things work better or worse for file in question ?
There are other tools on your disposal such as
lsof or
fuser to see if the file is opened.
You can also use
screen or
tmux to achieve similar hackery, sending commands into sessions.
Check out
-X options and examples online.
But try to correct the workflow first and use other tools not editors in scripts in such way...
Can you show the code, perhaps a better way can be devised to make entire processing.
Hope that helps.

Peasant.

Hi all,
I have programmed in VB before, and have recently moved on to Bash.
In VB there is a command:
SendKeys {F12} > "Show Help"

Is there any way of doing this in Bash? (I need to send the Ctrl key into the script?)

NAME
page_util_quote - page character quoting utilities
SYNOPSIS
package require page::util::quote ?0.1?
package require snit
::page::util::quote::unquote char
::page::util::quote::quote'tcl char
::page::util::quote::quote'tclstr char
::page::util::quote::quote'tclcom char
_________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
This package provides a few utility commands to convert characters into various forms.
API
::page::util::quote::unquote char
A character, as stored in an abstract syntax tree by a PEG processor (See the packages grammar::peg::interpreter, grammar::me, and
their relations), i.e. in some quoted form, is converted into the equivalent Tcl character. The character is returned as the result
of the command.
::page::util::quote::quote'tcl char
This command takes a Tcl character (internal representation) and converts it into a string which is accepted by the Tcl parser, will
regenerate the character in question and is 7bit ASCII. The string is returned as the result of this command.
::page::util::quote::quote'tclstr char
This command takes a Tcl character (internal representation) and converts it into a string which is accepted by the Tcl parser and
will generate a human readable representation of the character in question. The string is returned as the result of this command.
The string does not use any unprintable characters. It may use backslash-quoting. High UTF characters are quoted to avoid problems
with the still prevalent ascii terminals. It is assumed that the string will be used in a double-quoted environment.
::page::util::quote::quote'tclcom char
This command takes a Tcl character (internal representation) and converts it into a string which is accepted by the Tcl parser when
used within a Tcl comment. The string is returned as the result of this command.
