Log formatting: quoting format option flags in Perl
Hello, I'm having trouble with setting desired punctuation and spaces with log formatting in a perl script. The log-format options I am using are --log-format=%h%a%l%o%f%t%u%c. Full rsync command at end of this message. When I run the rsync command and write the results to a file, $results = `$rsyncstr 21`, my log format options are ignored if I have the options quoted in the command, and the log is unreadably compressed if I leave off the quotes. I've tried qq//, escaped \, escaped \', and many other ways of escaping quotes. Any suggestions? Full rsync string: rsync -Cclrtvzn --log-format=%h %a %l %o %f %t %u %c /localdir [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/remotedir Many thanks, Shifra -- Shifra Raffel Programmer/Analyst California Digital Library University of California Office of the President Oakland, CA [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
