Unfortunately this doesn't work because exiv2 is complaining wrong arguments on option -M.
But trying a similar comand by inserting echo to debug the line
The command man zbarimg doesn't mention it, nor does it's site, zbar.sf.net.

You could also make a separate script and call it from find.
That would make sense if this is something you do occasionally or often.
Maybe put this in ~/bin/tagimg.
I haven't executed this, but it looks right.
Code:
#!/bin/sh
if [ -f "$1" ]; then
$TEXT="$(zbarimg -q -Sdisable -Sqrcode.enable --raw "$1")"
exiv -M "set Exif.Image.DocumentName '$TEXT'" "$1"
else
echo "File not found \"$1\"" >/dev/stderr
fi
(Note that '$TEXT' gets expanded properly because the single quotes are inside double quotes.)
I have a file name :
var=UsrAccChgRpt
I want to make them upper case.
Tried:
$var | tr
Error:
tr: Invalid combination of options and Strings.
Usage: tr | -ds | -s | -ds | -s ] String1 String2
tr { -d | -s | -d | -s } String1

Hello all. I've been trying to install NWCHEM in parallel on a new cluster, and have been able to get it to work on single processors by ignoring any MPI environment variables.
This is, of course, pretty worthless. So I'm starting over and trying to get thing set up right for the MPI. The key... (6 Replies)
Hello!
I'm writing a shell script using #!/bin/bash instead of #!/bin/sh because of the substitution: ${!variable}, which won't work with sh. My main problem is the following (just a summarized example, the script is much more complex):
