I'm just playing with it at the moment. I only use it when I'm
accessing this e-Mail account remotely. But I've been using it just
enough that I got tired of the default behaviours. :)

Now I'm down to fiddling with such useful things as the colors. 
It's made a bit more fun, because I'm ssh'd into that mail account. So
the colors get a little unpredictable. 

I'll look into updating it though. I'm on one of my older servers, and
it's still at MDK 8.1, with Mutt 1.4.something..

Re: SOLVED(?): [expert] test command

2002-12-21 Thread milosh
wuha, i am sorry to say that, but what i wrote was mostly
wrong :( it's just too simple. i didn't saw cause
i assumed to deal with a strange situation. but this is
just normal behaviour. you wrote:

 $echo $? returns 0 after these test commands.
 
 $test -z 
 $test -z
first of all. my biggest mistake ;) test isn't a shell
builtin but a /usr/bin command. but doesn't really matter.

so what do you know about test after this first to commands?
that it works correctly, because  is an empty string an
'-z' tests for empty strings. than you also know, that
the 'test' is programmed in that way, that it returns
a '0' if an option but no argument is given. you see
this in the manpages (man test):

test EXPRESSION
[ EXPRESSION ]
test OPTION

you see that EXPRESSION is in [ ] brackets. means it is 
optional - no error - therefor exit code '0' ;).

i had to read thru the manpage many times carefully too until 
i saw it. just looked to far to see the obvious.

after you understood this, the rest explains it self:
 
 But it returns different value after followings.
 
 $test -n -- echo$? returns 1
 $test -n   --  0
 
 is an empty string, but '-n' tests for a not empty string.
i know it's a brain sucker, but think about mathematicly.
what is an not empty string? a string with something inside.
so... string is 'not empty', here would '-n' return with
0. but  is empty, it is not an 'not empty' string. 
therefor '-n' returns 1.

while i was writing this, i remembered that i did fallen 
already once into this. funny unix is, isnt it? luv it ;)

oh, didn't saw that. ok. this' kinda twisted to understand. 
first of all, in the '-z' example u r giving a string, 
which means 'test' has something to test for. depending on
the argument, it returns its exit code.

the '-n' example u showed has NO argument, which means 'test'
has nothing to test for. it returns zero.

i understand ur confusion. it is common in programms to return 
a 0 value if a needed argument is missing. but this is 
not a programm, it's a shell builtin. end you do not got the
exit code from the command explizitly, but from that what
happend for the shell (namely bash, 4example).

so what happens for the shell? a 'strace test -n' reveals
here many secrets ;). the shell takes the command, validates
it, than takes the option, validates it. than nothing more is
to do. no more 'commands' r available to the shell. now here
plays strace. as u may see at the very end, it makes a close of
a library it opened befor to get ur locale. the close is 
successful, end THIS returns your exit (0).

clear now?

hope didn't confused u more, hehe.

Maybe.  What I'll say is based on years old knowledge so it may be
slightly off in the details (I hardly used `vargs' in my progamming
days) but the idea of what's happening will remain intact.

When, at the prompt (==), you type something like:

==command Arg1 Arg2

The shell first splits the line into strings arg0, arg1, arg2
and assigns the elements of the commandline to them:

arg0 = command
arg1 = Arg1
arg2 = Arg2

Whitespace, i.e., spaces, newlines, and tabs in between, before, and after
the elements on the commandline is (as I recall) discarded
so that if, say, Arg2 is not supplied, then string arg2 will not be
defined in the application you are running.

In particular, then, lets say you type:

==test -n foo

Within `test'  string arg1 = -n and string arg2 = foo
and the test is meaningful and will return TRUE
becuase `-n'  says (is arg2 a sting) AND (is arg2 not empty)
which is true.

Likewise if arg2 =  (the empty string) will return false.

However for

==test -nspacesCR

or just

==test -nCR

where spaces stands for spaces and CR stands for the the newline,
arg2 is _undefined_ which means it is not even in the category of string
much less the empty string (which is still something. namely \0 in memory).

So `test' is saying to itself I have no arg2 to test against.
Formally, 

   arg2 does not exist == arg2 is not a string.

Hence you get an automatic false.  Likewise for -z and no
following argument.

Tks Mr.miLosh  Mr.Dean,
(B
(BThis problem is getting clear now. However, let me please

(B
(BMr.miLosh advised;
(B
(Bfirst of all, in the '-z' example u r giving a string, 
(Bwhich means 'test' has something to test for. depending on
(Bthe argument, it returns its exit code.
(B
(BNo, in the '-z' example, I am NOT giveing a string.
(B
(B   $test -zCR --  NOT $test -zspaceCR
(B
(B
(BMr.Dean advised;
(B
(BSo `test' is saying to itself "I have no arg2 to test against.
(BFormally, 
(B
(B   arg2 does not exist == arg2 is not a string.
(B
(BHence you get an automatic "false".
(B
(BYes, I understand why $test -nCR returns 0. As you mentioned,
(Bno argment is different from no string.
(B
(BBut this assumptions also apply '-z' option, isn't it? If so,
(B$test -zCR should return 1 not 0, because `test' should say
(Bto itself (as in -z case) that I have no arg to test against,
(Bthen it should return authentic `false'. 
(B
(BI read comments from Mr.miLosh  Mr.Dean many time and tried
(Btest command in various patters many times. (I should have
(Bstudied English harder!!) And finally I came up with a
(Bconclusion as Mr.which quotes;
(B
(B'it is common in programms return a 0 value if a needed
(Bargument is missing.' So test returns 0 if no arg is given
(Bafter -* option. Thus both $test -zCR and $test -nCR returns 0.
(B
(BNow I forced myself to be clear on this!! But why $testCR

[expert] test - messages not getting to list?

2002-05-01 Thread David Rankin

I have posted several messages about X working fine in LM7.2, but
neither X4.2 or 3.3.6 working in LM8.2. None of my messages have made it
to the list?

Hardware
AMD K6-2/233 w/64meg, VXpro chipset
#9 Imagine 128 Video w/4meg
NEC Accusync 95F

When X4.2 is selected, X bombs with an Addscreen/Screeninit error

When X3.3.6 is selected, X bombs with a no screens found error

I copied the X86config and X86config-4 from LM7.2, but it still wont
start?

I need help
