My host allows limited access to SSH and Linux commands. However, I can't use Wget believe it or not. I was hoping for something to download a file (.flv) from another server. Is there another command I can try? If there isn't, I could probably make use of Python, Perl or PHP (favourite) to achieve a file download. Is it possible? ...
I'm pretty new to programming for Linux environments, so I don't exactly know what to search for in order to answer this question for myself. I need to understand how applications set the shell to accept a certain command to start them. For example, you can start Firefox from the command line by executing the command: firefox. I don't k...
I can do something like this in Haskell: #!/usr/bin/runghc main=putStrLn "Hello World" Then I can run it with ./hello.hs My question is, why is the first line ignored? Comments in haskell start with -- but the first line still seems to be ignored. It even loads in ghci. The trick also works with Python and Perl. But when I do someth...

Hello all, Is there an option for the CURL command to show only a percentage output to shell rather than all of this, for example: % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 100 12.4M 100 12.4M 0 0 4489k 0 0...

I have IE8 add-on that needs to know command line arguments specified by user. The problem is that real processes have command lines: c:\program files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe SCODEF:5740 CREDAT:79873 c:\program files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe SCODEF:5740 CREDAT:79880 instead of c:\program files\Internet Explorer\iexplor...
I have installed jed and jed-extras on ubuntu. I would like to have a class-browser / outline mode. So I can see the structure of the code document currently edited and easily jump to a function or class in it. The question is: What are the steps to actually activate / use the outline mode? There is supposed to be one but I can't find ...
I don't understand the difference between these methods. Here's what the JavaDoc says: setLine(String) = Line to split into several commandline arguments. setValue(String) = Sets a single commandline argument. My confusion is that I see them being used interchangeably in the code I'm updating. An example: Commandline comma...
Okay this is and isn't programming related I guess... I've got a whole bunch of little useful console utilities scattered across a suite of projects that I wrote and I want to dump them all to a single directory to make using them simpler. The only issue is that I have them all compiled in both Debug and Release mode. Given that I onl...
I'm on Windows, and I want to launch Firefox and the Selenium IDE with a specified test case loaded and ready to play back. I've got as far as: >"C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" -chrome "chrome://selenium-ide/content" which launches Firefox and the IDE, but I don't know enough about the Selenium IDE or Chrome to g...
I can best explain my question with an example. I recently downloaded Python for Windows, installed to C:\Python. So if I'm in folder X that contains myscript.py, and I want to invoke it, I have to call this: > C:\Python\python.exe myscript.py But it would be super-cool if I could just do this, from within any folder: > python myscri...
What is the difference between "inspect" and "interactive" flags? The sys.flags function prints both of them. How can they both have "-i" flag according to the documentation of sys.flags? How can I set them separately? If I use "python -i", both of them will be set to 1. Related: tell whether python is in -i mode ...
We ship a Java application whose memory demand can vary quite a lot depending on the size of the data it is processing. If you don't set the max VM (virtual memory) size, quite often the JVM quits with an GC failure on big data. What we'd like to see, is the JVM requesting more memory, as GC fails to provide enough, until the total a...
How can I find out the command line options a program was launched with under windows? ...
how do you define a variable to an integer at the command line. For example if i want to assign A=22 and B=23 and then have the A and B = a separate variable such as C..? I am confused on the syntax of this at the command line. I understand how to set variables in a script but how would i do it from a command line using only 1 line? Any...
Hi, I've been trying to find a way of sorting this with standard commandline tools, bash, awk, sort, whatever but can't find a way apart from using perl or similar. Any hint? Input data header1 3 2 5 1 header2 5 1 3 ..... ..... Output data header1 1 2 3 5 header2 1 .... Thanks ...
