is there a command utility that the options is not explored yet by the command??
that were not explored by the command yet, then
enhance the command by reinventing its name and adding this option
to its current options.

You may combine related commands into one script also.
Example:
copyormovefile (-c -m) filename/s
where:
copyormovefile is the name of the utility
(-c -m) are options that will do the following:
-c for copying filename/s
-m for moving filename/s

can anyone help please

Ummm ... what exactly is your question?

what is the command utility that their options is not yet explored yet... can you suggest some utility?

sir, when i will start my script in here, can you give me some guide to do it, please

How about when i reinvented the command utility like:

cutorpaste

---what options can i put in here, and how can i enchance this options , can you guide me sir...

I think you are talking about aliases - where you assign a command to an alias to reduce typing. Alternatively, you may be talking about writing a script to invoke a particular command (or series of commands) in a manner (or manners) specific to your requirements.

I'm with Tinkster on this, I'm not entirely sure what you are asking.

yeah your right sir, aliases... i want to add a new options that never explored yet by cutorpase... By the way sir, my "cutorpaste" is my invented command utility,
for example
cutorpaste (-c -p)

-c => use to cut some content in a file
-p => used to paste some content of a file...

i need also to enhance these, what will i do ??

If i understand you correctly, the way to do what you want is to create a script to do it. For example, I use a command line script to change my volume:

Now I just call the command with:


You can do similar with any command, then provided the script is executable and in your $PATH you have your own customised command.

sir what is your command utility that you used in your script, did you reinvent also its name and customized it in your $PATH??

sir about the $PATH , how can i customized my "cutorpaste" command... sorry for asking many questions... because im a newbie here , and i want to learn.. thanks sir for helping...

OK - your question is probably a much bigger question than you realise. Using scripts you can customise almost anything, but you have to know how to do that. I recommend that you do some reading first to learn the basics. We can help you better when you understand what you are doing. Start here: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Bash-Prog-Intro-HOWTO.html

ok sir thanks i will try these one... thanks sir for concern...

sir did you use your own utility in your example script??... or its already built- in

The script I posted as an example was one I'd written myself (and not a particularly good script example if I'm honest). It was intended to show you what a script looks like and how, by using scripts, you can simplify commands or, by combining different commands, you can create new ones to perform your own custom actions as you have suggested. For example, each of the commands `cut` and `paste` exist in linux, but there is no `cutorpaste` command. By writing a script you could combine the functionality of the two commands into a single script, which you would call 'cutorpaste', and you would design the script in such a way that it uses the commands in the way that you want.

As I said, though, bash scripting is a very big subject, and you should ideally learn the basics first.

Indeed, you should bookmark these:

If you read that lot, you'll be an expert

Anyway, you can invent your own cmd and its options by writing a script/prog in the language of your choice.

sir i didnt get it, sir can you do it with its simplicity and i will enchance it furthermore... please please T_T
