Array of string param. is it possible?

[Loc Tran]

Hi all,

I'm trying to use Klish with the capacity of support array of string param.

The command line param prompt will depend on the Entry number in an array. For example:

 EntryNumber: 3

 entri[0]: a0

 entri[1]: a1

 entri[0]: a2

Could it possible in Klish?

Thank you,

Loc Tran

Hi

I can't understand the question.

If you mean command with unknown number of the parameters with the same type - it's not possible now.

If you mean interactive script then you can write any script you like.

If you mean command with set of parameters with visibility depend on condition see "test" field.

This is somewhat related to the fact that most POSIX shells do not have
array support and need special support for "magic" expansions like "$@"
with double quotes.

I have been doing some heavy sh/bash programming recently...



== Greenspun's tenth rule of programming

This goes well with an argument that I made earlier:

It's always a bit dangerous to extend a "simple tool" into a programming
language. You end up with a solution that often has some details missing.

What I'm saying is also called "Greenspun's tenth rule":

"Any sufficiently complicated C or Fortran program contains an ad hoc,
informally-specified, bug-ridden, slow implementation of half of Common
Lisp."
