Hi. Running a centos/fed box, and trying to craft a simple shell test to run a bunch of commands where the command is displayed as well as the output Ie. The following cmd might return 10 (the num of the files if the cmd is run from the cmdline. ls -al /cloud_nfs_parse/austincc*__parse.dat | wc -l 10 However I can't seem to figure out how to run the cmd from within a shell script where I can display the "cmd" as well as the result. #!/bin/sh ## #cp.sh # # run as a test from the nfs /cloud_nfs_parse to gen the num of parse.dat files # from the bn crawl # # #-- this doesn't quite work.. as it generates the complete "ls... output" but it does display the cmd and the resulting num of the ls files.. (set -x; ls -al /cloud_nfs_parse/austincc*__parse.dat | wc -l ) exit Thoughts/comments??
