[SOLVED] Testing capname attributes for constructing tput command

Faki · 04-13-2023, 09:33 PM

I want to set the capname for use with tput. But I need to modify the following bash part to test whether the capname is valid, before computing erps.

What can I do

Code:

if [[ -n "$cn" ]]; then
  erps="tput ${cn}"
fi

For capname I should have any one of the following attributes.

Code:

bold smul rmul rev blink invis smso rmso sgr0
