Description:
Aardvark Shell Utils package is a collection of 3 utilities
designed to aid the user when working with shell scripts, or from
the shell command line. All three accept their input on the command
line, or from standard input, and thus they can be piped (|) with
other commands. These three commands come with their own man
page.
The Aardvark Shell Utils collection includes the three
utilities below:
realpath
Realpath is an implementation of the realpath function for
returning the canonicalized absolute pathname of an input path.
This lets you generate an absolute pathname with all symlinks
resolved and all '.' and '..' characters removed. Many commands
do not work well with relative paths or paths containing symlinks.
Realpath will let you cresolve these absolute paths. Since it can
be used in a sequence of piped commands, as well as with a command
line argument, realpath is very friendly to both shell script
authors and interactive shell users.
Please see the included manpage in the man/ dir for more
info.
You will need a system with a realpath function. (This is
pretty standard ANSI C stuff.)
It is possible that your realpath call will not return an
absolute path in some circumstances (reports of Solaris behaving
like this have surfaced).
filebase
Filebase returns the base portion of a filename, that is the
filename with its extension (e.g. .txt) removed. It works by
returning everything preceeding the last period in the input
string. The period itself is not returned.
fileext
Fileext returns the extension portion of a filename (e.g. txt).
It works by returning everything following the last period in the
input string. The period itself is not returned.
