Thanks. I haven't noticed any problems with it, but will keep it in mind
and probably change it the next time I have the system down.

If so, you might script a ping test, then let X act based on the result

When is it necessary/desireable (probably 2 different questions) to unset
variables created within a script? I've written a bash function that gleans
most, if not all, variables created within a script, then unsets them. But,
when it runs, it takes a second or two, which isn't bad, but feels lik

Whoops! My bad. :) Both of these work...

Yep, that works too. But :), var3=`echo -e "$var1\n$var2"` seems to be a
bit more flexible in that 'echo $var3' produces...

See my other replies for more thoughts on this, but it actually has to be

he same, but definitely acts
differently. Maybe we need extra protection for both the '\' and the '$'?
And I thought this was going to be an easy question! :)

>> varlist=`echo "$varlist" | sed -e "s/$//g"
Yep, that did it! But, what did it do? Or, where can I find info that will
help me make sense of it? FWIW, it looks to me like it's searching for
'\\$' (???). Oooh it is! But the '\\$' gets reduced to '\$' which then
works as desired.
Hi Matthew,
Perhaps what I'm doing in the '$' case needs a bit more explanation. The
following is a script segment that gleans variable names from the script in
which it is run:
for varname in case select until while ; do
varlist=`cat "$0" | grep "^[]*$varname " | se
1) I have a variable with a list of variable names as its content, e.g.
'varlist=$var1 $var2 $var3'. I want to manipulate $varlist such that it
='var1 var2 var3', i.e get rid of the '$'s in front of each variable name.
A 'sed' example that I've tried is:
varlist=`echo "$varlist" | sed 's
| Globbing happens to command lines after parameter substitution.
But wouldn't that mean that the following...
echo 'echo '$2' | sed '"s/^/ / ; s/\$/ / ; s/ $1 / / ; s/^ // ; s/ \$//"
...which produces...
echo * | sed s/^/ / ; s/$/ / ; s/ . / / ; s/^ // ; s/ $//
..._should_ have shown '*' in
at's going on.
Finally, if I set flist=`echo *` (forcing the expansion of '*' before
calling the function), the results are identical to the previous test
(actual expanded file list).
Bottom line... I understand what you're saying about '"$2"' vs. '$2',

Very much so! Thanks for the great explanation!

I ended up w
(and multiple spaces
between words) to stick in variables, or this a "feature" of bash?
