Since preparing 'translatable' strings for functions is boring, I thought I'd implement some more functions from TUI.
What does one need, when one wants cross-platform-compatible scripts?
A way to reckognize and differ them of course!
Code:
swarm.os.desktop() { #
# Returns the name of the DE/WM or terminal application name
# Assigned to: $DESKTOP
$PRINTF '%s\n' "${XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP:-${DESKTOP_SESSION:-${TERM:-TTY}}}"
}
swarm.os.distro() { #
# Returns the name of the distro
# Assigned to: $DISTRO
# This /etc is not as dynamic as I'd like
# but its THE absolute standard - as far as I'm aware
if [[ ! -f "/etc/os-release" ]] || ! $GREP -E ^NAME= "/etc/os-release" | $SED s,"NAME=","",g >&1
then local e=/etc
local SF="release version" # Search For
local results=$(for a in $SF;do \ls "$e"|"$GREP" "$a";done)
local resultsFiles=$(for each in $results;do [[ -f "$e/$each" ]] && $PRINTF "$each ";done)
for each in $resultsFiles
do strcat="$($GREP -i ^NAME= $e/$each)"
[[ -n "$strcat" ]] && break
strcat="$($GREP -i ^id= $e/$each)"
[[ -n "$strcat" ]] && break
done
$PRINTF "${strcat/*=}"|$SED s,'\"','',g
fi
}
swarm.os.based() { #
# Returns arch, debian, redhat or unknown
# Assigned to: $BASED
out=""
if [[ -f /etc/redhat-release ]]
then out=redhat
elif [[ -f /etc/arch-release ]]
then out=arch
elif [[ -f /etc/debian_version ]]
then out=debian
else out=unknown
# Do further checking
# Changes according to: https://github.com/icy/pacapt/blob/ng/pacapt (153-180)
swarm.util.which cave 1>/dev/null 2>/dev/null && out=exherbo
swarm.util.which emerge 1>/dev/null 2>/dev/null && out=gentoo
swarm.util.which port 1>/dev/null 2>/dev/null && out=mac
swarm.util.which brew 1>/dev/null 2>/dev/null && out=mac
swarm.util.which zypper 1>/dev/null 2>/dev/null && out=opensuse
# Not sure if i handle these 2 properly
swarm.util.which pkg 1>/dev/null 2>/dev/null && out=openbsd
swarm.util.which pkgng 1>/dev/null 2>/dev/null && out=freebsd
fi
builtin echo "$out"
}
DISTRO="$(swarm.os.distro)"
DESKTOP="$(swarm.os.desktop)"
BASED="$(swarm.os.based)"
If you happen to have any recomended additions or changes, please, let me know so.
Have fun!

Hi,
I am trying to capture runtime stats of a shell script (c shell). Are there system variables to call? Or should I create a date variable at the start of the script and at the end of the script? I am trying to capture the time if the script stops or ends with error.
Please help.

forkpty
OPENPTY(3) BSD Library Functions Manual OPENPTY(3)NAME
openpty, login_tty, forkpty -- tty utility functions
SYNOPSIS
#include <util.h>
int
openpty(int *amaster, int *aslave, char *name, struct termios *termp, struct winsize *winp);
int
login_tty(int fd);
pid_t
forkpty(int *amaster, char *name, struct termios *termp, struct winsize *winp);
DESCRIPTION
The openpty(), login_tty(), and forkpty() functions perform manipulations on ttys and pseudo-ttys.
The openpty() function allocates a pseudo-tty and returns file descriptors for the master and slave in amaster and aslave. If name is non-
null, the filename of the slave is returned in name. If termp is non-null, the terminal parameters of the slave will be set to the values in
termp. If winp is non-null, the window size of the slave will be set to the values in winp.
The login_tty() function prepares for a login on the tty fd (which may be a real tty device, or the slave of a pseudo-tty as returned by
openpty()) by creating a new session, making fd the controlling terminal for the current process, setting fd to be the standard input, out-
put, and error streams of the current process, and closing fd.
The forkpty() function combines openpty(), fork(), and login_tty() to creates a new process operating in a pseudo-tty. The file descriptor
of the master side of the pseudo-tty is returned in amaster, and the filename of the slave in name if it is non-null. The termp and winp
parameters, if non-null, will determine the terminal attributes and window size of the slave side of the pseudo-tty.
RETURN VALUES
If a call to openpty(), login_tty(), or forkpty() is not successful, -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the error. Otherwise,
openpty(), login_tty(), and the child process of forkpty() return 0, and the parent process of forkpty() returns the process ID of the child
process.
ERRORS
openpty() will fail if:
[EAGAIN] There are no available pseudo-ttys.
login_tty() will fail if ioctl() fails to set fd to the controlling terminal of the current process. forkpty() will fail if either openpty()
or fork() fails.
FILES
/dev/ptmx cloning pseudo-tty device
/dev/ttys[0-9][0-9][0-9] slave pseudo-tty devices
