BASH Scripting - Help Request

[dulux-oz]

This may be a seen as a non-gaming question but please trust me that it is actually gaming related:

Is anyone any good with unix/linux bash scripting (ie to a professional level) who could help me out with something?

Cheers

One of the things I do for a living. Ask me anything. :-)

OK - does your chewing-gum loose its flavour on the bedpost overnight?

Seriously, PM sent - and thanks

Yes. And going to check the PMs now....

[Andraax]

See your PMs.

I can take a gander if Andraax hasn't already solved it. Most of my BASH is for auto-builds and Cron management or python hooks which is pretty much all that's needed. Unless you're trying to do something crazy.

This is dulux-oz that we are talking about here. Of course he's doing something crazy

I usually jump into python when it's computationally demanding, unless cross system *nix system comparability is your goal. Except those pesky KORN shell users.

Thanks everyone for the help - Andraxx and I got it sorted, so its all good!

And I'm not sure if I should be insulted or not by what Zacc said

Cheers to all the fellow UNIX geeks here (I've been a UNIX sysadmin for almost 30 years). I was really psyched to see that a native Linux version of FG is planned! That's awesome, because it works like crap under WINE. I am psyched!

On a related note, if I wanted to do any mods for FG, specifically the RMC ruleset, what language are they in? Are there any good tutorials for getting started? Thanks!

I really wish FG would hire someone to work on the RMC ruleset full time, poor Dakadin seems swamped. I want it to get all the love that the D&D rulesets get!
