Slightly OT, but does anyone know how to pass an empty string to a script via the command line? I have a script that is invoked via:
rename match-str replace-str <list of files> .... where the rename script does an s/match-str/replace-str/g on the filenames (variables evaluated, of course; the script already works). Sometimes I'd like to simply delete the match string, but I'm having trouble passing an empty string as the replace string. Unix seems to just ignore pairs of single or double quotes. Any suggestions? TIA. - B -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
