does tee at the end make even sense?
and how does the endless loop end?

For sure. There is always a better way ))

But it simple and easy enough to use from time to time

oh yeah, on the command line i do many things

smol_mazunki 2022-09-15 13:58:27
in scripts i tend to overengineer stuff. and i make a lot of wrapper scripts

2) what do you mean?

find -exec vs. find | xargs

i never understood the benefit of -exec over piping. any idea?

you can not pipe into all tools, as not all tools support reading from pipe

you can not pipe into all tools, as not all tools support reading from pipe

which is why i use xargs

you can not pipe into all tools, as not all tools support reading from pipe

So, it depends.

You have:

– piping
– wrapping
– reading from file
– -exec option

Usage depends on what tool acceps and what is faster to remember and type 🙂

P 2022-09-15 14:02:42
xargs and parallel also

I am familiar, yeah
The repo looks amazing except for the languages used 😅

yeah i think it’s how distros set default policies in ff

Oh I was kinda scared🤪

Using Pop, might be similar things

Yeah same in debian ubuntu systems

while true; do echo -e “onentwonthree”; sleep 1; done | sed -ne ‘s/(.*)/look: 1/p’ | tee -a something

I’m starting to wonder if the flow of data between theses pipes is sync, sed keeps it for himself and as a consequence cat something is empty.

I need to inspect from time to time the output of something with tail -f while the above code is continuing its execution, any idea?

marcotrosi 2022-09-16 21:48:25
does tee at the end make even sense?
Kueppo 2022-09-16 21:49:25
I was testing many alternatives, I first did >> and something was still empty.
marcotrosi 2022-09-16 21:49:31
and how does the endless loop end?
marcotrosi 2022-09-16 21:50:09
I mean, currently it looks like sed is never reached
Kueppo 2022-09-16 21:50:37
This one is just an example, the real code is too big to paste it here

while true; do echo -e “onentwonthree”; sleep 1; done | sed -ne ‘s/(.*)/look: 1/p’ >> something

the same people.

but still

marcotrosi 2022-09-16 21:51:14
ya cause your endless loop is endless
Kueppo 2022-09-16 21:52:02
Yeah but thought that should not prevent me from viewing the content of something.
marcotrosi 2022-09-16 21:52:19
ya but there is no text in something
marcotrosi 2022-09-16 21:52:29
the sed part is never executed
marcotrosi 2022-09-16 21:52:42
because the shell is stuck in your while loop
Kueppo 2022-09-16 21:53:03
it seems to write to something at end.
