I want to change my default shell to tcsh. I used
Code:
usermod -s /bin/tcsh username
command as given at url
But if I open a new shell, it is still a bash shell.
How do I make my default shell as tcsh?
Is there some type of functional way to read things in the Python shell interpreter similar to less or more in the bash (and other) command line shells?
Example:
Code:
>>> import subprocess
>>> help(subprocess)
...
[pages of stuff to read]
...
I'm hoping so as I hate scrolling and love how less works with simple keystrokes for page-up/page-down/searching etc.

Does it use Bash or some other shell?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI would like to create some aliases for bash shell. On other Unix/Linux machines I have done this using the alias command like this: alias rm rm -i
When I type that into a terminal on Ubuntu, it looks like alias is not installed. I get this:
bash: alias: rm: not found
bash: alias: rm: not found
bash: alias: -i: not found
I tried adding the alias to .bashrc instead, but then I get the same error message every time I start terminal. Just for fun I tried apt-get install alias, just to see what would happen, and it installed something called libperl-alias instead, and alias still doesn't work.
I'm used to being able to put a script in ~/bin and having it overrule the system version of a command. However for "time" or "kill" since the bash shell implements a version of the command (i.e. /bin/ version is not used) doing this is not enough. How can I get the shell to run my own version instead of the version in the shell.I understand the implications of doing this. I know what I'm doing, I can always /bin/whatever if I want to get the old version (or just chmod -x ~/bin/whatever).

One of the useful command I used frequently is foreach.> foreach a (`cat list`)>> echo $a need to use bash shell now instead, and realized that I can't use foreach anymore. The command is not found. Does anyone knows if there is similar command / function in bash shell?

Code:

it opens firefox, I can browse, etc.

Is this possible?

i've finally got a NIX environment...yipee! Installed opensuse 11.2 in a dual boot with windoze with no problem whatsoever. unfortunately, my NIX skills are sadly dated or maybe things have changed or both. in any case, i have a rather trivial problem that i have not been able to figure out.
i go to gnome terminal to get to the bash shell, no problem except when i do things like cat, less and so on. the commands do what they do then when done the last line output is "some text" and "(END)" - at the completion of the command it does not return to the bash shell. i've tried ctrl-everything, enter, escape, actually all keystrokes i can think of to get back to the bash shell...no luck. man and docs have not been helpful or i simply missed the answer (i'm a little saturated at this point).the only thing i've been able to do to solve my dilema is close the terminal an start a new instance, not elegant but works.
I changed the default SUSE prompt setting by modifying the shell variable PS1 to display the following information:
u : the username of the current user
h : the hostname up to the first '.'
w : the current working directory, with $HOME abbreviated with a tilde
I used export command to setup a new shell prompt:
export PS1="[u@h: w]$ " To add colors to the shell prompt and make a regular user prompt blue I used the following command syntax:export PS1="e[0;34m[u@h: w]$ e[m "

If some one has a better way to get the the ` and ' chars through I want to sed with the backtick '`' character and ''' single quote character.

Whats the difference, and when do you use which?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am working on a simple script that should take two command line arguments, a [number] and a [name]. The first thing the script should do is check to make sure that no more and no less than two command line arguments have been entered when calling the script - an error message should be delivered if the condition is not true.
If two args have been entered, then the message 'processing "scriptname"' should appear, where scriptname is the name of the script being called. The script should then write to the screen "Hi [name]!", and should write this phrase [number] of times. For example, the command $ myscript 2 joe would produce the output: I have read the manual many times looking for examples, and I am very close by virtue of my own efforts. Further, I have searched these forums and others for good examples, which have also gotten me very close.
