As Ignacio said, ARG_MAX is the maximum length of the buffer of arguments passed to exec(), not the maximum number of files (this page has a very in-depth explanation). Specifically, it lists fs/exec.c as checking the following condition: PAGE_SIZE*MAX_ARG_PAGES-sizeof(void *) / sizeof(void *) And, it seems, you have some additional limitations: On a 32-bit Linux, …
I’m using it with VIM mode. Basically ESC-v (or simply v if already in command mode) opens the terminal. It is setup by: autoload -U edit-command-line zle -N edit-command-line bindkey -M vicmd v edit-command-line Here is how to setup it in emacs mode: autoload edit-command-line zle -N edit-command-line bindkey ‘^Xe’ edit-command-line Use ‘bindkey -e’ to …
The external commands make some logical corrections. Check the result of the next script: doit() { str=$1 echo -e “string $str” cmd=basename [[ “${str##*/}” == “$($cmd $str)” ]] && echo “$cmd same: ${str##*/}” || echo -e “$cmd different \${str##*/}\t>${str##*/}<\tvs command:\t>$($cmd $str)<” cmd=dirname [[ “${str%/*}” == “$($cmd $str)” ]] && echo “$cmd same: ${str%/*}” || echo …
Quote the variable to print the newlines: filenames=$(grep ‘foobar’ /some/dir) echo “$filenames”
Thanks to Aditya Kumar; acceptable solution: gdb -batch -ex “run” -ex “bt” ${my_program} 2>&1 | grep -v ^”No stack.”$ If the program needs arguments: gdb -batch -ex “run” -ex “bt” –args ${my_program} param1 param2 \ param3 … 2>&1 | grep -v ^”No stack.”$
You have to be careful when depending on packages that are Github-hosted: if you’re just pointing to the master branch of a package (which is the default when adding such dependencies), you can get in all sorts of trouble when that branch is updated and it’s either not functional (it happens) or it breaks backward …
A deleted answer was on the right track. A slight modification to your attempt: shopt -s extglob MYDIR=”./images” OTHERDIR=”./images/junk” SUFFIXES=’@(pdf|eps|jpg|svg)’ mv “$MYDIR/”*.$SUFFIXES “$OTHERDIR/” Brace expansion is done before variable expansion, but variable expansion is done before pathname expansion. So the braces are still braces when the variable is expanded in your original, but when the …
: is the separator. The PATH variable is itself a list of folders that are “walked” through when you run a command. In this case, the folders on your PATH are: /Users/chengluli/anaconda/bin /Users/chengluli/.rbenv/shims /
You can use a named pipe, which is intended for exactly the situation you describe. mkfifo some_pipe command_that_writes_to_stdout | tee some_pipe \ & command_that_reads_from_stdin < some_pipe rm some_pipe Or, in Bash: command_that_writes_to_stdout | tee >(command_that_reads_from_stdin)
