Lo all

I'm trying to find out true a tcl script how long a linux application is running true the following script:

Code:

### !status
bind pub * !status pub_status
proc pub_status { nick host handle chan text} {
catch { exec ps aux | grep -i rcracki_mt | awk '{print $10}' } status
putmsg $chan "\002\0034::\003 rcrack is running for $status \002"
}

When I run it in bash it returns me for example the following information as expected:

Code:

[ezme@EzMe r2d2]$ ps aux | grep -i rcracki_mt | awk '{print $10}'
3:12

When I run it true my eggie

Code:

[10:11] <@EzMe> !status
[10:11] <R2D2> :: rcrack is running for can't read "10": no such variable

So it seems i need to put the command in quotes or something but that doesn't seem to work eather. Als i tried putting the command in a variable but again no succes.

Any idea's on how to tackle this problem?

Thanks in advanced Smile

Try

Code:

### !status
bind pub * !status pub_status
proc pub_status { nick host handle chan text} {
catch { exec ps aux | grep -i rcracki_mt | awk '{print \$10}' } status
putmsg $chan "\002\0034::\003 rcrack is running for $status \002"
}

I was able to fix it with this method:

Code:

### !status
bind pub * !status pub_status
proc pub_status { nick host handle chan text} {
catch { exec ./status.sh } output
   set grr $output
if {$grr == ""} {
   putmsg $chan "\002\0034::\003 rcrack is not running\002"
   return
   }
   if {$grr != "0:00"} {
   putmsg $chan "\002\0034::\003 rcrack is running for $grr minutes..\002"
}
close $grr
}

where status.sh contains the following line:

Code:

ps aux | grep -i '[r]cracki_mt' | awk '{print $10}'
