Ubuntu :: Kill A Python Application From The Command Line?
Sep 27, 2010How do I kill a python application from the command line? For an example I have 2 applications running. The first is bleachbit and the second is furiusisomount. They are both python applications so they both come up as python under process name. I could kill them by ID number but if there was another way to do it so that it could be automated in a bash script.

Sep 21, 2010I am going to compile and install my first linux application from the command line. The program is the port scanner program NMAP, and I am looking at the documentation to learn how to do it. I saw this thread [URL], and I just want to make sure I understand what it is I'm doing.
bzip2 -cd nmap-5.35DC1.tar.bz2 | tar xvf -
cd nmap-5.35DC1
./configure
make
su root
make install
"bzip2 -cd nmap-5.35DC1.tar.bz2 | tar xvf -"
Here I am calling the bzip2 program to work with a specified file. look for the file nmap-5.35DC1.tar.bz2 in the current diretory (-cd) and to pipe (redirect) something, this is where I get lost, I think. And I know what x & v mean but not f, or what that has to do with the previous commands.
cd nmap-5.35DC1
Chage to the named directory.
./configure
I assume this is a command?
make
Builds an executable
su root
make install
not sure what the difference is between this and the above.

Jul 13, 2009how to use QGLviewer. I want to give my program a file name as a command line argument. All of the sample programs I find have a main.cpp file like this:
Quote:
#include <QApplication>
#include "window.h"
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
[code]....
Then the Window class, which is derived from QGLViewer, does all the program's actual work. If I want access to argc and argv, for example, to open and read a file that's passed as an argument, what would handle that? Is there a built-in way to get the arg variables to the window class, or do I need to just write a loadfile function and pass them?

General :: Running Sh Scripts From Csh Command Line?
Apr 21, 2010i use the csh shell at work. you can either log on to servers locally or to the NFS mount. is is important to know which you are mounted to when executing scripts. csh is the only shell that lets me know which high availability server i am currently on.
before i write a shell script to complete a task, i have to type sh or bash at the prompt, hit enter and then configure the script. then when i am done, hit control -d to get out the bash or sh shell.
is there a way to run sh or bash scripts from the csh command line - i have tried typing this at the csh command line: /bin/sh (or ./bin/bash) while [ 1 ]; do ps auxwww | grep fire | wc -l ; done ... etc, but it does not work.
we do not have the zsh shell at work

General :: Running Script On Ssh Command Line Want To See Output?
Jun 2, 2011I'm trying to remotely run a script on a target machine though the ssh command-line using passwordless login. I know the keys are set up correctly because if I remove the call to the script, the ssh session succeeds and I can log into the remote machine, but when I call the csh script, I don't get any output on the command line. If I call an identical bash script, I do get the output. Specifically, calling line 1 below just returns me to the command line, but running line 2 echo's hello then returns to the command line (both scripts simply contain a single line to echo hello, and both work when run locally on the remote machine). Why do my csh scripts send any output through the ssh link whereas the bash does?
Code:
1) ssh -i /root/.ssh/id_rsa user@remotemachine /tmp/test.csh
2) ssh -i /root/.ssh/id_rsa user@remotemachine /tmp/test.bash Update: I have further determined that nothing I add to the csh gets run either. I've tried touching files and making directories in the scripts, and all gets run using the bash script, but calling the csh script like line 1 above does nothing, nothing is touched or created.

Mar 3, 2011I have an executable with input options, like so:
Code:
./executable -n 42 -s 42
I've added gcov to the makefiles (compiling with --coverage, -fprofile-arcs, and -ftest-coverage, and linking with -lgcov). It builds fine and creates executable.gcno.
When I try to run gcov, gcov things the options belong to it:
Code:
$ gcov ./executable -n 42 -s 42
gcov: invalid option -- 's'
Usage: gcov [OPTION]... SOURCEFILE...
When I use quotes this happens:
Code:
$ gcov './executable -n 42 -s 42'
executable -n 42 -s 42.gcno:cannot open graph file
The command line options must remain. How can I get gcov to generate the same .gcno file it later looks for?

Ubuntu :: Is Command Line Invocation Of Gnome-terminal To Run More Than One Command
Feb 17, 2010how 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.
Programming :: Effect Of Using Eval To Execute A Command As Opposed To Writing It On The Command-line?

$cmd If this script is executed, an error is generated.

When we execute date | wc on the command line, it goes fine.then | is not treated as an argument. Why?
