Hi, I am trying to figure out how to setup continuous integration using maven. What I want is: Check for new stuff in SVN If changes are detected, check them out Build and deploy I think all of this can be pushed into some shell script to make it be invoked by cron. Thus we will have automated continuous integration (nightly buil...
I am trying to parse the "number of hops" value from the traceroute command and output it with a bash script. Any hints? Very new so thanks.

I am working with VMD (a molecular dynamics visualization package) and I want to open VMD from a Perl script, run a Tcl script, print the output to a log file, then close VMD and return to the Perl script. The ordinary syntax to do this is: system("vmd -dispdev text -eofexit < program.tcl > LOG"); which breaks down as follows, as best...
I'm starting to write an (sophisticated) FTP distribution script, but I thought: this can't be! I'm reinventing the wheel! Reliably distributing files to remote servers under controlled conditions from a central location is as old of a task as computers are, damn it! Please someone prove me right. Google search on this subject is so br...
This is what I used: for i in `find some -type f -name *.class` I got: some/folder/subOne/fileOne.class some/folder/subOne/fileTwo.class some/other/sub/file.class next, I would like to get rid of the "some/" for each value of $i.

I need to communicate with a serial device by sending it ascii characters. I know that in Linux you can use fopen() to write to a serial port, but I didn't know if you could do that from a shell. If not, is there another simple way to do this? ...

I've created a small Bash script that does a MySQL data dump. Because the dump can be fairly large I put the process in the background and then wait for either an error or the log to show up in the file system. I have the following code: mysqldump main_db > /loc/to/dmp/file.sql 2>/loc/to/error/log/file.log & The problem is that I get ...
Hi all, I'm sure this question may seem foolish to some of you, but I'm here to learn. Are these assumptions true for most of the languages ? EDIT : OK, let's assume I'm talking about Perl/Bash scripting. 'Single quotes' => No interpretation at all (e.g. '$' or any metacharacter will be considered as a character and will be printed ...

If I'm in a shell script that has no shebang line… Hum, that doesn't matter, because indeed sh is always used. Maybe not so. Is there a command to identify the name/type of current shell, the path to the shell binary, and the version of the shell? I don't need all of that, but the more I can get, the better. I want something that has ...
