I imagine the capability exists; therefore . . .

Would someone please send me a sample shell program that ftp's to a
site and returns a directory listing or gets a file . . . without user
intervention.

Thanks for your assistance.

filename.Z means that filname is compressed.  Type:

	uncompress filename
	tar -xf filname

(Also, be sure that you typed binary before you FTPed it.)

OK, I'm not a sh programmer, so please don't flame me if I'm wrong, but...

1. The above case doesn't work for single-digit numbers; it should read
   case $variable in
     [0-9]*)

2. This is just as easy in csh (at least it works for me):
   switch ($variable)
     case [0-9]*:
       # it's a number
       breaksw
     default:
       # it's not a number
   endsw
  
3. Neither of the above warns for numbers followed by non-digit characters.
   In csh you'll have to do:
   if (`echo $variable | egrep '^[0-9]+$'` != "") then

   This forks a new shell, but it solves the problem correctly. It doesn't
   use output redirection, which this one does:
   echo $variable | egrep '^[0-9]+$' >& /dev/null
   if ($status == 0) then

    You need to put the string in the object file, thence the 
    executable.  Your inputs did not do that. The string only
    existed in the source file.
    Use, for example:
    char version_id[]="@(#)RELEASE 1.0";

    However, note that if you try to link multiple objects with
    this declaration, you have multiple declarations, so declare
    the variable as static.
    static char version_id[]="@(#)RELEASE 1.0";
    Thus you can even put such strings in header files that are
    included more than once in a program.

    Note that the 'what' command of SCCS uses the string you
    are talking of, and that SCCS will put it in and update it.
    Also, RCS has a similar 'ident' feature, using a different
    string structure.  This last paragraph is to save people
    the trouble of adding this info.  :)

Subject: Re: So what _is_ so good about vi?
Date: 21 Jan 93 15:06:20 GMT
Organization: negligable

I guess I am in the minority.  Even the vi-defenders tend to hedge
and say it's commands are cryptic.  Wordstar is cryptic.  Emacs
is cryptic (alt-meta-cokebottle does WHAT?).  vi is cryptic if you
try to learn a sequence as a whole, but each command breaks down
into actions and domains.  The most common ones are relatively
mnemonic.  Some of the difficult parts come from the ancient
days when terminals didn't even necessarily have arrow keys.
the "hjkl" for movement (left,down,up,right) respectively makes
a nice sort of "embedded arrow pad".  Other movements are mnemonic:
w for word, c for character, e for end of word.  d for delete
followed by w for word, and voila: delete word!

Now I have stuck to some of the simpler stuff here, ^ for start
of line and $ for end of line may not be the most obvious choices,
and the bookmarking, cut&paste registers and the more advanced
features take a bit of getting used to, but they are very quick
once you have them down.  The trick is to remember that every
command is built up of smaller, relatively easy to learn, pieces.

Move one paragraph below the next? d}}P  I don't
even think about it, because it isn't one command.  

	d - delete 
		(delete what?)
	} - move to next empty line (it's symbolic, not mnemonic -- so sue me!)
		(ok, it's gone)
	} - move to next empty line
		(we're positioned after the next paragraph)
	P - paste what we deleted above us
		(voila!)

Each piece is relatively simple.  Eventually your fingers start doing 
things all by themselves.  How would emacs do that?  you would
probably have to set a begin mark and an end mark then cut then
move then paste.  But an emacs-person can post the escape sequences
that would be required if they really want to.
		
The only similar editor I know of is VMS's EDT in "nokeypad mode".
I had a VT-52 terminal emulator that didn't emulate the keypad,
even when I FOUND a keypad terminal I preferred nokeypad mode,
who can remember that keypad-3 is CUT (or whatever), but a
simple CUTSEL is "CUT SELected text".  Again, everything built
up out of smaller parts.

Most menuing editors I've seen are two simple to be very useful.
EMACS has always confused me much more than vi.  I have to admit
that my favorite editor is BRIEF, on DOS, and I think that it may
be an EMACS-derivative, but I think they've tamed it a lot.  

Then to recap what some of the others have already said: vi can be 
found on almost every unix system in existance, the same can not be 
said of EMACS.   Your fingers never have to leave the main keys to
use the vi commands.

Usually you would make the executables not the object files, but anyway if you
need to have more than one dependency then just list them, you don't need to
use a wildcard

	all: file1.o file2.o

	file1.o: ...
	file2.o: ...

My typical setup for a makefile for a program is:

	CC=gcc
	CFLAGS=-O

	PROGRAM=myprog
	OBJS=obj1.o obj2.o ...
	HDRS=hdr1.h hdr2.h ...
	LIBS=-llib1 -llib2 ...

	$(PROGRAM) : $(OBJS)
		$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -o $@ $(OBJS) $(LIBS)

	$(OBJS) : $(HDRS)

Hope this helps,

Subject: Re: Sockets: How do I detect when it has unexpectedly closed (solved)
Organization: University of Illinois at Urbana
Date: Sun, 24 Jan 1993 16:04:55 GMT

I solved my problem of detecting when a socket closes.  When I first
asked, there were two methods proposed.  One was to catch SIGPIPE.  When
one writes or reads from a broken socket, this signal is generated.  The
second method was to watch the number of bytes returned from a blocking
read.  If a blocking read returned zero, then the socket is bad.

I tried to catch SIGPIPE, but the damn signal was never generated.  I
tried lots of possibilities, like putting the signal(SIGPIPE,myfunc),
right before the read, in main(), and what not.  Nothing happened.

I even tried to look through the netstat source code, but alas, that was
reading the kernel's memory, and I don't exactly have root access.

Since I was using nonblocking sockets, the blocking read that returned
zero was right out, because when a nonblocking read returns zero, that's
nothing unusual.  However, you can do it like this...

When a socket becomes disconnected, a select(fd_set,&readSet,...) will
return readSet with one of the bits set, indicating that the socket had
data to read.  If, you use a nonblocking socket, read will return a
zero.  The only time one can interpret this zero to mean a disconnected
socket is when select() is used.

The great part is that you know which socket has been disconnected so
that one can shut the connection and release whatever memory was
allocated for it.

Is there an easy, elegant, and quick way to get the Nth line of a file in UNIX?

Currently I use the simple, but somewhat slow:

head -n | tail -1

If n is very large(in the problem I'm working on, it's a random number from 1
to ~20000), then this can take several seconds.  Is there a basic UNIX command
I've failed to find in searching the man pages?  Is there something that works
a bit more quickly using ex, or ed?

Hi,

Can anyone provide some answers to the following question:
 How can one get one Unix process to write to other ones?
 - An example is the netfind server which starts up contemporaneously 
 several processes which connect to different hosts and examine
 certain ports and services in search for a given user.
 - A more trivial example would be creating a short routine which writes to
   a { system("telnet some.host.here 25";} process using the SMTP
   protocol, thus providing an alternative for the mail command.

Assuming the platform is SunOS/Sparc 4.1.2 can you provide the names of
specific '#include' headers and the corresponding library names?

With Sun RPC (and probably the others too, but I don't know for sure)
it only makes sense to pass a parameter by value.  A memory location
won't be much good if it's on a different machine.  However, you could
always arrange for a function to return the updated value, which would

	I always "setenv TERM vt100"; 'nn' (the news reader) works
fine.  Everything else seems to appear fine as well.

	How can I make the above output normal?

[ I've only posted this query to this newsgroup ... should I post it
	on one of the ms-windows groups? ]

Is there a way to disable the pause (^S) key?  Or, is it possible to unpause
it from a program (maybe send in a ^Q to the buffer somehow)?

Thanks in advance.

Ok, I accidently sent the previous version of this article to someone per
e-mail, having pressed r instead of f in nn, so I apologize.

What I asked is if someone could ftp the X11R5 port to some amix site,
so that everybody can profit of it w/o having to recompile... I tried
to compile the dist. with the patches using the gcc-2.2.2 but did not
get the X-server to run, althrouth the rest was working ok. 

Many thanks to any goodwilling person !
