I have a script (bash).
I want to specify redirect to stdout to a file name that is a variable, "ofile"
for f in `ls NW*.txt`
do
base=${f:0:6}
ofile="${base}_cleaned.txt"
python3 ../software/cleanTextGridOutput.py $f > ${ofile}
done
This is creating an empty file with the name specified as ofile.
Help?
.. and now for some reason, it's working all of a sudden..
Thanks duckies! :)
@Rolston disk caching ? should wait for flushing maybe
@xtof54 How does one flush? Just keep running until it works??
So the syntax was correct?
@Rolston I think it's ok ;-)
For flushing I smtimes replace redirect with
script -f
(not sure about the option tho)
but it's a different use case :-/
@xtof54 Ok. Cool.
I got it to work again, so I am going to try not to touch it anymore. :)
