Need help with Kommander secripting

linx win · 08-24-2006, 04:40 PM

I am trying to write a program script using Kommander. I was able to do most of the functions in my program except the following:

- When I try to save a list content to a file, I do the following:

PHP Code:



@for(i, 0, @name_list.count, 1) 
@File.append(/home/knoppix/names, @name_list.item(i)) 
@endif

But I noticed that it that the value of the variable i is always zero. Do I need to declare it as a vriable and how?

- I am using kommander commands and bash. I am using global to send some data to the bash scripts in the program but how to get the opposit? I mean to get kommander part of the script to recognize the vriables on the bash part of the script.

linx win,

With this thread being two months old, you probably have already determined the answer to your question. I am also attempting to learn how to use Kommander and had a similar problem.

Your example code was correct except in one place, the using of the "i" variable in the second line. It needs an "@" in front of it. So the complete example would look like this:

Code:

    @for(i, 0, @name_list.count, 1)
    @File.append(/home/knoppix/names, @name_list.item(@i))
    @end

The "@i" variable exists only within the "for loop".

From my understanding on how the Kommander parser works, it is best to not mix lines with Kommander script and bash script. The reason for this is, the Kommander script portions is parsed/executed first and then is followed by the bash script portions being processed and executed.
