I want to isolate everything after "#commands", between the 2 "<", ">"'s as a string. How do I go about this?
I made the whole fille a string
translator=$(<config.txt)
I want to iscolate everything in the commands section, and store it as the variable "translator commands".
From that point I plan to split each line, and each set of commands something like this:
IFS=';' read -a translatorcommandlines <<< "$translatorcommands"
IFS=':' read -a translatorcommand <<< "$translatorcommandlines"
I'm so clueless, please help me!
If you mean to extract all lines after #command
between <
and >
you can go with this command:
sed '0,/^#command/d' config.txt | sed '/>/q' | grep "^\w"
which skips all lines before #command
, prints lines until >
and takes only those starting with word character.
My output for your file is:
make-directory:mkdir;
move-to-directory:cd;
url-download-current-directory:wget;
extract-here-tar:tar;
copy:cp;
remove-directory-+files:rm -R;
enter-root:su;
