Shell Script Question
by Gary J. Hanley July 23, 2002

July 23, 2002

Greetings! A shell script question: Can anyone tell me the pros & cons of coding your shell scripts to stay in-process instead of spawning a child process when needed? For example, ${VARIABLE##*/} instead of `basename $VARIABLE` I'm trying to use the former as much as possible now but I wasn't exactly sure if that is better, not so safe or just doesn't matter. Thanks! -- Gary

pine/mozilla/htmlview
by Bill Mills-Curran July 22, 2002

July 22, 2002

I recently switched to mozilla 1.0, and I'm having problems getting pine to understand that I want to use mozilla as my URL viewer. In the pine setup, I set the URL viewer to a perl script that I wrote that then runs mozilla. (The script works fine when I run it separately.) When I view a URL in pine, I end up with the KDE browser. The output of "ps" shows that pine is running /usr/bin/htmlview instead of my perl script. Any idea why pine is ignoring my setup? TIA, Bill
