This seems the simplest way to make a spinner. To stop it, use the break (ctrl+c) 😉

I recently reviewed someone’s bash code, and noted their use of getopt. I had always been using getopts, so was at first confused (due to syntax), then puzzled: which one is better, getopt or getopts? Getopt is older, but is a separate binary. It tends to be pretty robust, and supports long options (i.e., you […]
In a previous post I talked about how to find dead symbolic links on your filesystem. You can read about that here: How to find “dead” symbolic links I’d liked to be able to run this command with less typing, so I created the following script:

Save it to /usr/local/bin/deadlinks or ~/bin/deadlinks Set the right […]
We all like backups don’t we? You know, in case your machine gets wrecked up you can restore your most precious data. With this script you can sync your data using Bash, Rsync and Open SSH. Let me first explain the doSync function. Using rsync to transfer the data is quite simple but if the […]
When working with Bash it might become handy to have a way to check if a record exists in an array. In PHP you have in_array for this… The below code adds a function similar to the PHP variant.

Sometimes you want to do actions per line instead of the complete file at once. Here is an example that you can use to read the file line by line.

#!/bin/bash run_cmd_file() { while read line do chr=${line:0:1} case $chr in "#" ) # ignore commented lines ;; * ) echo "$line" ;; esac done < $1 } run_cmd_file filename |

The following example uses tr to convert lowercase characters to UPPERcase characters.

toLower() { echo $1 | tr "[:upper:]" "[:lower:]" } toUpper() { echo $1 | tr "[:lower:]" "[:upper:]" } # Example echo $(toUpper "hey") echo $(toLower "HEY") |
More information about tr can be found here.
First capture the current IFS in $SAVEIFS and then replace it with a newline instead of spaces, now do your thing and afterwards restore the IFS with $SAVEIFS. And yes, you can not use new lines in filenames 😉

Sometimes you want to clean up some things when your script gets stopped for whatever reason. This script captures the SIGINT signal and sends it to the myExit function. The myExit function calls another function (just to show what is possible) which removes a logfile.

If you map the SIGINT signal to a function […]
