Ok, let's say I have a shell script named script.sh, and script.sh sucks in a file /etc/file.conf that contains nothing but variable declarations like:
SETTING1=setting1 SETTING2=setting2 and so on. Very simple. My question is, what if I want to feed the script a setting on the command line ? Normally I run the script: script.sh -x -v -e -r and it looks for /etc/file.conf and sucks in all the variables. But I want to: script.sh -x -v -e -r SETTING1='setting1' for some reason this is not working. I am in the FreeBSD csh shell when I attempt this (FWIW). I just want to be able to quickly bypass the conf file, using a single command line. Thanks. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
