LDBASHCONFIG(8) libbash Manual LDBASHCONFIG(8)NAME
ldbashconfig -- Creates or updates cache file for libbash(7) libraries.
SYNOPSIS
ldbashconfig
DESCRIPTION
ldbashconfig Creates and/or updates libbash(7) cache file. This file is used by ldbash(1) at run time.
Run this command each time you add new bash library or change interface of existing one - ldbash(1) highly depends on consistency of the
cache file.
FILES
/etc/ldbash.cache
Cache file that contains information about libraries dependencies and list of exported symbols. See ldbashconfig((8)) for further
details.
BUGS
None known.

LDBASH(1) libbash Manual LDBASH(1)NAME
ldbash -- Dynamic loader for libbash(7) libraries.
SYNOPSIS
ldbash [-h | --help]
ldbash [-l | --list]
ldbash [-L | --load lib,[lib] ...]
ldbash [-U | --unload lib,[lib] ...]
ldbash [-e | --externlist lib,[lib] ...]
ldbash [--externlist-all]
ldbash [--i | --internlista lib,[lib] ...]
ldbash [--internlist-all]
DESCRIPTION
ldbash is used to manipulate libbash(7) libraries. Its main function is to load specific library. It can also print list of available
libraries, list functions each library exports, unload functions, etc.
In case of --load and --unload ,the output is intended to be passed to bash eval command.
Options-h | --help Print options summary
-l | --list Display list of available libraries. The libraries names listed, may be passed as parameters to other invocations of ldbash.
I.e. first you run ldbash --list to see what is available and then you may load it.
-L | --load lib,[lib] ...
Load given libraries - i.e. print string that should be passed to eval command. Usually the string contains various source
commands.
Libraries that given libraries depend on are also loaded.
Libraries only loaded if their dependencies are satisfied. Dependencies are resolved using ldbash.cache file, which is created
by ldbashconfig(8).
-U | --unload lib,[lib] ...
Unload given libraries, but not their dependencies.
The output should be passed to eval command (in the same manner as with --load ).
-e | --externlist lib,[lib] ...
List all symbols that are exported by given libraries. Symbols are usually functions that given libraries implement.
--externlist-all
List all exported symbols of all available libraries. Symbols are usually functions that library implement.
-i | --internlist lib,[lib] ...
List all internal symbols (i.e. global variables/functions) of given libraries. This is intended mostly for developers that
want to develop library of their own, and want to be sure that they don't override any already defined symbol.
--internlist-all
List all internal symbols of all available libraries. This is intended mostly for developers that want to develop library of
their own, and want to be sure that they don't override any already defined symbol.
FILES
/etc/ldbash.cache
Cache file that contains information about libraries dependencies and list of exported symbols. See ldbashconfig((8)) for further
details.
BUGS
The script can't load libraries if their file name starts with '-'. (If someone uses file names that start with a '-' he/she deserves it!)

Why do shell builtins like echo and pwd have binaries in /bin? When I do which pwd, I get the one in /bin. that means that I am not using the builtin version? What determines which one gets used? Is the which command a definitive way to determine what is being run when I enter pwd? (16 Replies)

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
-r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin ... (6 Replies)
I see lot of ad-hoc shell scripts in our servers which don't have a shebang at the beginning .
Does this mean that it will run on any shell ?
Is it a good practice to create scripts (even ad-hoc ones) without shebang ? (16 Replies)
For a starter I know the braces are NOT in the code...
Consider these code snippets:-

then
echo "I am here."

For those interested in installing dash shell on OSX Lion to help test POSIX compliancy of shell scripts, it is quite easy. I did it like this:

Hi all,
I am learning POSIX shell programming, and the book I read, uses the let command for integer arithmetic.
I have downloaded and use the shellcheck program on Linux.
This programs says:
In POSIX sh, 'let' is undefined.
See the screenshot attached.

I don't know how to start this but here goes.
I've been "using" Linux for over 10 years, possibly more and I still feel like I'm nowhere

Hi all, (mainly Neo)...
I keep noticing that the SQRT code I wrote recently for a POSIX shell keeps appearing, (the green colour sticks out like a sore thumb).
So I decided to take a look on Google.
Guess what?
