Also, this CGI is in a Linux / Apache system.

Without correct permissions for files created by CGI scripts, a script will fail. So, how to set permissions automatically (on the fly) when generating CGI files with new or unique names? By the way, the cgi code is compiled/binary, so no mod_perl, etc.

Thanks so far ... but plucking out the '+' is key. If only there was something like strtonum(arr[2]) to force '+' to function.

Based on this code... BEGIN { str = "2+2" split(str,arr,"") print arr[1] arr[2] arr[3] } ...how can one simply convert the string arr[2] to the + math operator so as to print 4?

Annihilannic, The systems are freeBSD w/sendmail and openSuse w/postfix. However, given the new service of connection = "/inet/tcp/0/"smtp"/25", is the local mta relevant? A successful local test makes it all the more puzzling since the same parameters work via command line/telnet to the...

A print statement was added to view server info. The "print "HELO ..." statement yields the server's 1st msg: "220 mail.server.com ESMTP" ... then the script hangs w/out any further output (even with the above code suggestions). Maybe fflush() or close() is in order... but how to do w/out...

Here's a quiz... How to use smtp with gawk. What works on the bash command line is not working in an awk script. Consider the following code: BEGIN { RS = ORS = "\r\n" to = "name@server.com" from = "name2@server.com" text = "testing1...testing2...testing3..." subject = "testing...

PHV, your suggestion is closest to my ideal. Given that parentheses around a command starts a subshell, maybe one ought to include ";exit" near the end. Edcrosbys, after the first line in the script it is just a typical gawk script with: BEGIN { ... Mike042 and Annihilannic, you raise...

The first line is #!/usr/bin/gawk -f, which works fine executing within the current directory. Hope to execute files that are in either a subdirectory or outside the current directory (which may require the full path from / ).

Thanks Annihilannic, With: /another/directory/script, returned is: bash: /another/directory/script: No such file or directory With: ./another/directory/script, the terminal hangs. While the following seems to work: cmd="cd another/directory; ./script; cd .." eval $cmd unset cmd ... it seems...

How should a script in another directory be run, such as /another/directory/script ? My shell is bash.

Previously, the individual scripts called the meter script directly, an incremented counter sent as an argument for generating the percent of total complete. As that became cumbersome, a single call to the meter became the goal. If/when accomplished, marking intervals using strftime() between...

Try: awk '{ORS=""; if(++n>1) print}'

The main script: #!/usr/bin/gawk -f BEGIN { cmd1 = "./meterScript" ### output to terminal print cmd1 | "bash" close(cmd1) ### script3 below must wait for script2 cmd2 = "./script2; wait" ### output to a file print cmd2 | "bash" close(cmd2) cmd3 = "./script3" ###...

I've got a gawk script that controls other gawk scripts, one of which displays overall progress on the command line. While a progress display is simple to implement given iterations within a given script, I wish to monitor the progress of the controlling script via process id and to add an...

PHV, Your solutions are right on! So, can you recommend a favorite awk book? I have Effective Awk by Robbins. It would be nice to find more for accommodating user defined function libraries... maybe for a coming version of gawk?

Challenge: to convert what works on the command line into an executable script, putting each string within a file into an array, the file delimeter being empty space of any length. This works on the command line: gawk '/searchstring/ {split($0, arr, " "); for (i = 1; i <= NF; i++) { if...

Thanks Annihilannic; the program now works as desired. To answer PHV, there is an error without the tee; the cause is undiscovered.

How might the following bash code be modified to suppress tee's output to terminal? ./prog1 | tee >(./prog2 > file1) >(./prog3 > file2)

Perhaps awk is not the best language for a long bash/sql interaction like that in quotes here: command = "sqlite3 filename.sql <<SQL_ENTRY ... several lines of SQL ... SQL_ENTRY" Any ideas on how to make a command of many lines appear as one string (or how to better...
