Software :: Hidden Typing Mistakes On Command Line?

Mar 15, 2010

I use xterm and my kernel launches framebuffer before X windows.I reckon this is what's reponsible for hiding my all-too frequent typing mistakes.I'm a terrible typist, especially when in a hurry, but obviously you see your mistake and you correct it.owever if the terminal actually hides your mistakes, well you can have a frustrating few seconds. This sometimes happens to me and I think it's due to my Spanish keyboard and all the special characters that I can mishit. When I go to correct them (at least visually) the command fails and bash reports back (say, the filename) with an extra character (often a question mark).This all happens quickly and easily corrected but it's very annoying becuase of the way it hides these mistakes from your eyes

CentOS 5 Networking :: How To Create Wireless Network From Command Line With Hidden ESSID

Feb 27, 2011

I have a CentOS 5.5 server running currently with a Netgear gigabit ethernet card and for wifi I have a wi-fi card with the chipset: RT2860.Now I have gotten the ethernet card and wi-fi card working but my main question is: How do you bridge the connection between the ethernet card and the wi-fi card to create a wireless network with a hidden ESSID if possible and WPA encryption? (So the server basically acts as a wireless router as well as doing all the other stuff I need to do on it).

Software :: Typing CC Command While Compiling Programs?

Feb 24, 2010

I am doing my project which detects and displays the error message along line number when compiling c programs under Linux. Using gcc command..cc command which we generally use. For which my program must act as a compiler and generate error messages when user program is written and compiled. My idea was to develop a shell script program using name suppose ncc that would be..

$ vi ncc.sh
echo "compiling program $1"
$cc MyPgm.c
$.a/.out
<esc>
:wq
Now user program pgm1.c can be compiled using
$ sh ncc.sh pgm1.c

This will invoke my compiler program. But the thing is how to pass user program pgm1.c as input to my compiler program...

Ubuntu :: Mv Command Skips .hidden .files?

Dec 31, 2010

with the mv command or an alternative thereto. It'sreally something I ought to know but I have usually used the mv commandfor a small number of files at a time and, amazingly, never for "hidden" files (with names beginning with .), symbolic links and any lingering hard links.It is my intention to move whole directory trees from one file systemto another, including hidden files.Consider the following directories in /tmp: /tmp/A and /tmp/B, notingtheir contents:

Code:
$ ls -lA /tmp/[AB]

Programming :: Effect Of Using Eval To Execute A Command As Opposed To Writing It On The Command-line?

Jun 18, 2010

Code: cmd='date | wc'

$cmd If this script is executed, an error is generated. The reason written was that "The execution fails because the pipe is not expanded and is passed to date as an argument".What is meant by expansion of pipe. When we execute date | wc on the command line, it goes fine.then | is not treated as an argument. Why?

General :: Ubuntu 10.10 And Command Line Scripts - Error - Android: Command Not Found

Mar 26, 2011

I know my way around MS Windows much better, but I just don't feel right trying to program something for Android on a Microsoft operating system. I am interested in Android programming so I followed the instructions on [URL] to install the environment on my computer...

I just installed the JDK, SDK, Eclipse successfully (or I assume):

* When I get to Step 4 where I'm supposed to run 'android' it will not run. I get the error message "android: command not found" (I am definitely in the right directory).

** When I double-click it in nautilus, it opens up in gedit. I can set the permissions in nautilus (through the properties - Allow executing file as a program) and get it to work,

My system:

Intel i7
Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat
android-sdk-linux-x86
eclipse 3.6.2

Software :: Command Line: Chown Command Recursively On Invisible Directories?

which does not work on the invisible directories (why?). When I used ".*" as wildcard it changed all (visible) files including the parent directory (the one I was currently working in which is the "dot") . I can change the invisible directories owner and group using dophin but how is it done from the command line?

Ubuntu :: Is Command Line Invocation Of Gnome-terminal To Run More Than One Command

Feb 17, 2010

how to pass something more than a one-command startup for gnome-terminal. I will give an example of what I'm trying to do here:

Code:

#! /bin/bash
#
#TODO write this for gnome and xterm

[code]....

This same error occurs if the gnome-terminal line is changed to

Code:

gnome-terminal -e mcTerm

Is there any way to pass more than one command on to gnome-terminal? I have tried various single and double quoting senarios and in a final attempt, I abstracted to an exported function all to no avail. Perhaps even though gnome-term is better at many things than xterm, xterm trumps it in this instance.
