Few days ago I published on github a configuration/script able to be executed at boot/shutdown. Basically on Mac OS X you could/should use a System wide and per-user daemon/agent configuration file (plist) in conjunction with a bash script file. This is a sample of the plist file you could use: <?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?> <!DOCTYPE plist … Read more
Try something like this: ssh [email protected] “cd /home && ls -l”
grep -v -f pattern_file
Use Curses or ANSI escape sequences. Before you start spouting escape sequences, you should check that stdout is a tty. You can do this with sys.stdout.isatty(). Here’s a function pulled from a project of mine that prints output in red or green, depending on the status, using ANSI escape sequences: def hilite(string, status, bold): attr … Read more
Short answer: //usr/bin/clang “$0” && exec ./a.out “$@” int main(){ return 0; } The trick is that your text file must be both valid C/C++ code and shell script. Remember to exit from the shell script before the interpreter reaches the C/C++ code, or invoke exec magic. Run with chmod +x main.c; ./main.c. A shebang … Read more
You shouldn’t use ls like that and a for loop is not appropriate either. Also, the destination directory should be outside the source directory. mkdir /path/to/destination find . -type f -exec iconv -f iso-8859-1 -t utf-8 “{}” -o /path/to/destination/”{}” \; No need for a loop. The -type f option includes files and excludes directories. Edit: … Read more
“C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin\sh.exe” –login -i -c “git archive master | tar -x -C $0” “%~1”
Git bash is already a batch file with content similar to this : C:\WINNT\system32\cmd.exe /c “”C:\Git\bin\sh.exe” –login -i” If you want run (and leave running) a shell script in the context of the shell, specify it at the command line. The trick is that when the script file name is interpreted, it uses the Windows … Read more
The most reliable method I’ve come across in unix is readlink -f: $ readlink -f /x/y/../../a/b/z/../c/d /a/b/c/d A couple caveats: This also has the side-effect of resolving all symlinks. This may or may not be desirable, but usually is. readlink will give a blank result if you reference a non-existant directory. If you want to … Read more
From wikipedia Bash When Bash starts, it executes the commands in a variety of different scripts. When Bash is invoked as an interactive login shell, it first reads and executes commands from the file /etc/profile, if that file exists. After reading that file, it looks for ~/.bash_profile, ~/.bash_login, and ~/.profile, in that order, and reads … Read more
