ATF-SH(1) BSD General Commands Manual ATF-SH(1)NAME
atf-sh -- interpreter for shell-based test programs
SYNOPSIS
atf-sh script
atf-sh -h
DESCRIPTION
atf-sh is an interpreter that runs the test program given in script after loading the atf-sh-api(3) library.
atf-sh is not a real interpreter though: it is just a wrapper around the system-wide shell defined by the 'atf_shell' configuration value in
atf-config(1). atf-sh executes the interpreter, loads the atf-sh-api(3) library and then runs the script.
Scripts using atf-sh-api(3) should start with:
#! /usr/bin/env atf-sh
The following options are available:
-h Shows a short summary of all available options and their purpose. For those formats that write to a single file, specifying a '-' as
the path will redirect the report to the standard output.

ATF-TEST-PROGRAM(1) BSD General Commands Manual ATF-TEST-PROGRAM(1)NAME
atf-test-program -- common interface to ATF test programs
SYNOPSIS
atf-test-program [-r resfile] [-s srcdir] [-v var1=value1 [.. -v varN=valueN]] test_case
atf-test-program -l
DESCRIPTION
Test programs written using the ATF libraries all share a common user interface, which is what this manual page describes. NOTE: There is no
binary known as atf-test-program; what is described in this manual page is the command-line interface exposed by the atf-c, atf-c++ and
atf-sh bindings.
In the first synopsis form, the test program will execute the provided test case and print its results to the standard output, unless other-
wise stated by the -r flag. Optionally, the test case name can be suffixed by ':cleanup', in which case the cleanup routine of the test case
will be executed instead of the test case body; see atf-test-case(4). Note that the test case is executed without isolation, so it can and
probably will create and modify files in the current directory. To execute test cases in a controller manner, refer to atf-run(1), which is
the preferred way to run test cases. You should only execute test cases by hand for debugging purposes.
In the second synopsis form, the test program will list all available test cases alongside their meta-data properties in a format that is
machine parseable. This list is processed by atf-run(1) to know how to execute the test cases of a given test program.
The following options are available:
-l Lists available test cases alongside a brief description for each of them.
-r resfile Specifies the file that will receive the test case result. If not specified, the test case prints its results to stdout. If
the result of a test case needs to be parsed by another program, you must use this option to redirect the result to a file
and then read the resulting file from the other program. Note: do not try to process the stdout of the test case because
your program may break in the future.
-s srcdir The path to the directory where the test program is located. This is needed in all cases, except when the test program is
being executed from the current directory. The test program will use this path to locate any helper data files or utilities.
-v var=value Sets the configuration variable var to the value value.

I have seen some misinformation regarding Unix file permissions. I will try to set the record straight. Take a look at this example of some output from ls:
$ ls -ld /usr/bin /usr/bin/cat
drwxrwxr-x 3 root bin 8704 Sep 23 2004 /usr/bin

sort -nr --key=1 ....
The output I get is:

Suppose I have a main() function with only one malloc statement allocating say some 1 gb memory. Also say my system has 1 gb of ram.
main()
{
malloc(1gb)
return(0)
}
The program above exits without freeing the memory.
In this case will the 1 gb of heap memory be returned... (9 Replies)
I'm trying to install a PGX32 video card on my Sparc 10 Ultra running Solaris 10.

Hey All,
Quick question...
I'm writing a short script to check if a continuous port is running on a server.
I'm using "ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep processName" and I was wondering if it was better/more reliable to just check the
return code from the command or if its better to pipe to... (12 Replies)
I installed NetBSD 6.1.2 amd64 and can't find the apm utility. Is it not in the base system?
Is it necessary to recompile the default amd64 kernel to use apm?
Or is there a new method for power management and suspend/resume? (2 Replies)
Hi,
I am learning shell scripting for the first time. I use AT&T Korn Shell, Version AJM 93u+ 2012-08-01, compiled from source on NetBSD.
So far I have managed to set up what I think is a useful and pleasing shell prompt, which can be seen in the image attached to this post.
The prompt is... (2 Replies)
Hey gang, I have a list of times I need to sum up. This list can vary from a few to a few thousand entries. Now I had found a closed reference to adding time titled "add up time with xx:yy format in bash how?" In it, the example works great for that formatted list of times... This is the reply code...

Usually when I on the evening go to bed I take some interesting book with me. I read it for a while to get me down to sleep. Probably most people seek information from the Nett by googleing but I am so oldfashioned I prefer a real book ;)
