I found this online and verified that the command:
echo "\033]0;Name\007"
Changes my term name to "Name". I'm just wondering why and how does this happen, so that I can tweak this and use it in my scripts accordingly.
Thanks for the help in advance.

Found this (\033 is the sequence for ESC) :
ESC ] 0 ; txt ST Set icon name and window title to txt.
In the man page : http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man4/console_codes.4.html
So, Linux console implements :
a large subset of the VT102 and ECMA-48/ISO 6429/ANSI X3.64 terminal controls
However this methods does not seems to be portable because it depends of the implementation of the terminal.

Hello this my first question to StackOverflow, not sure about the forum and topic.
While participating in an Open Mainframe initiative using Visual Studio Code and Putty for Unix I developed a sample program in COBOL showing international sayings (german, english, french, spanish, latin for now). It works fine via batch with JCL to file and being called from REXX. In file I can't see special chars for non-english but I had a lucky punch with a twin-program in PL/1 (doing the same and showing the special chars in REXX).
Now my question: I also tried to call by mvscmd from Unix bash script. It works so far but dont show me the special chars. Ok I have last chance to call mvscmd from Python. Or alternatively I can transfer file from MVS to unix (for any reason then it automatically converts and I see my special chars contents).
Where is the place to handle it? Cobol? (as I said, for any reason PL/1 can do. I only use standard put edit in PL/1 vs display in Cobol). Converting the Sysprint/Sysout?
Any specialist can help me?
Hello and sorry for late replay. Well the whole code is a little bit much but I guess my problem is the following - MVSCMD direct coded in the shell script
#!/bin/sh
parm='Z08800.FYD.DATA'
#echo "arg1=>"$1"<"
[ ! -z "$1" ] && parm=$parm","$1
#echo "arg2=>"$2"<"
[ ! -z "$2" ] && parm=$parm","$2
#echo "parm=>"$parm"<"
mvscmd --pgm=saycob --args=$parm \
--steplib='z08800.fyd.load' \
--sysin=dummy \
--sysout=*
I have some more shell script but this is the main. I directly put it to sysout (its the COBOL diplay. I can use fixed string or my saying read from MVS file). When using PL/1 program the last file is then sysprint because PL/1 makes it by PUT EDIT.
I assume my codepage is pretty wrong. But I dont know how to repair. I used some settings in the shell but LANG remains on C ??? By the way this Unix seems to be quite old and I only have the chance to use it until August.
My main interest is to use the program on Mainframe and in JCL and/or REXX.
But they gave us chance with this embedded Unix (?) also so I wanted to try.
Direct Sysout from COBOL program to Unix terminal.
I meant when executing the program on the Mainframe and then watching the result file in ISPF (old stuff) editor by PF3 I can see German and Spanish and French special characters. So they are there seems, produced by COBOL and PL/1.
When transfering the MVS file (kind of PDS) into the UNIX by MVSCMD, it is also fine (special chars) but thats not what I wanted.
I tried to use Python instead flat shell but its going even worse. I cannot direct the Sysout to terminal, all what is Python able to call is on the Mainframe and with the MVS filesystem. So I have to transfer it after. It is to much overhead in my eyes when call say 7 sayings and I want them to be displayed in the Unix terminal lol.
Here is my REXX that is doing the trick
/* rexx */
ARG PARM1 PARM2
PARAMETER = '/Z08800.FYD.DATA'
If Length(PARM1) > 0
Then PARAMETER = PARAMETER","PARM1
If Length(PARM2) > 0
Then PARAMETER = PARAMETER","PARM2
PARAMETER = "'"PARAMETER"'"
Address TSO "Alloc File(sysprint) Dataset(*)"
Address TSO "Alloc File(sysin) Dummy"
Address TSO "Call fyd.load(saypli)" PARAMETER
Address TSO "Free File(sysprint)"
Address TSO "Free File(sysin)"
It is now the other Load, the PL/1 - but the COBOL does the same with Sysout instead of Sysprint.
It is shown in my REXX terminal that is also called by ISPF and then 3.4 in the edit panel. The program has no manual input but reads file. And yes, the sayings are not allocated here, I read them by dynamic allocation but it doesnt matter from where my strings come to the DISPLAY / PUT EDIT
And this now JCL. OK works little different, it stores to PDS member
//SAYCOB JOB
//COBCLG EXEC IGYWCLG,
// PARM.GO='Z08800.FYD.DATA'
// SET MBR=SAYCOB
//COBOL.SYSIN DD DSN=&SYSUID..FYD.SOURCE(&MBR),DISP=SHR
//LKED.SYSLMOD DD DSN=&SYSUID..FYD.LOAD(&MBR),DISP=SHR
//GO.SYSOUT DD SYSOUT=*
//*-------------------------------------------------------------
//*
//*-------------------------------------------------------------
//SAYCOB EXEC PGM=&MBR,PARM='Z08800.FYD.DATA,001,007'
//STEPLIB DD DSN=&SYSUID..FYD.LOAD,DISP=SHR
//SYSOUT DD DSN=&SYSUID..FYD.OUTPUT(&MBR),DISP=SHR
//*-------------------------------------------------------------
//LIST EXEC PGM=LINE80,PARM='/80'
//STEPLIB DD DSN=&SYSUID..FYD.LOAD,DISP=SHR
//SYSIN DD DSN=&SYSUID..FYD.OUTPUT(&MBR),DISP=SHR
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//
Here in the parameter I give them the library to my sayings and then I allocate by PL/1 or COBOL. I can of course show, but its a little bit much, about 200 lines... The problem is not MVS I guess but the Unix codepage.
Right now I'm trying to create wallet for TON.
I downloaded and built Fift interpreter an was trying to create new wallet with: ./crypto/fift new-walelt.fif
[ 1][t 0][1559491459.312618017][fift-main.cpp:147] Error interpreting standard preamble file `Fift.fif`: cannot locate file `Fift.fif`
Check that correct include path is set by -I or by FIFTPATH environment variable, or disable standard preamble by -n.
Although my path variable is set. Could anyone please help me with this?
First, locate {{lite-client-source-direcotry}}/crypto/fift
This is not the build directory, that's the directory where are the source files (lite-client that you downloaded). So verify you have that it contains Fift.fif file.
If you installed it in the user working directory, it should be:
~/lite-client/crypto/fift/
Now, you should either set FIFTPATH variable to point to this directory or run fift with -I option:
export FIFTPATH=~/lite-client/crypto/fift/
./crypto/fift new-walelt.fif
Or
./crypto/fift -I~/lite-client/crypto/fift/ new-walelt.fif
Have you tried ./crypto/fift -I<source-directory>/crypto/fift new-wallet.fif instead of setting environment variable? Are Fift.fif and Asm.fif library files inside FIFTPATH?
Make sure you have followed all the instruction written here:
https://test.ton.org/HOWTO.txt
It should work if you do all the above instruction correctly. If not, it might be a bug. Remember that TON is in a very early beta strage. You can submit the issue here:
https://github.com/copperbits/TON/issues
You also can use this:
cd ~/liteclient-build
crypto/fift -I/root/lite-client/crypto/fift/lib -s /root/lite-client/crypto/smartcont/new-wallet.fif -1 wallet_name
Try this (worked for me)
export FIFTPATH=~/lite-client/crypto/fift/lib
./crypto/fift new-wallet.fif
I've tried to find a table with the definition for each COMPSTAT (related to the tool Control-M workload Automation) return code but without any success.
Can anyone tell me if such a table exists?
Thank you.
It's the return code from whatever task was being executed at that time. By convention, a zero value means 'OK', and anything non-zero means an error of some kind.
Different utilities (i.e. external commands) have different possible return codes, so if the command were SCP then you would look up the code in the SCP documentation, and find that for example, '67' meant 'key exchange failed'.
There is no table that contains the definition of each COMPSTAT return code.
OSCOMPSTAT stand for Control-M Operating System Completion Status.
The value of COMPSTAT is set by the exit code of the command that was called.
Example:
After calling the command [cat file1.txt] the value of COMPSTAT will be:
0 if the file "file1.txt" is found
1 if the file "file1.txt" is not found
After calling the command [ctmfw] the value of COMPSTAT will be:
0 if the specified file is found
7 if the specified file is not found
I am running an "autoit3.chm" file. When it runs, I would like to send a down key arrow but it doesn't work:
$file = FileGetShortName("C:\Users\PHSD100-SIC\Desktop\AutoIt3.chm")
Run(#ComSpec & " /c start " & $file)
WinWaitActive("AutoIT Help")
Send("{DOWN}")
Well, you're just waiting for the wrong Window Title... Try WinWaitActive("AutoIt Help") and it will work... Your "T" must be a "t"...
To find this out, you just need to check your script output and after your CHM-File has been opened you'll see that your script is still running. But you would have expected it to execute the Send(...) and then terminate. So your script must still be waiting for the expected window to appear. Which will lead you to double check your window title, probably you'll directly copy the window title with the AutoIt Window Info Tool, and this shows your mistake. Correct it. Viola, be happy =)
Besides: You don't need to run a Command-Prompt first, you can call ShellExecute($file) directly instead.
If you use the AutoIt Window Info tool, it helps with these issues, and it's also good practice to debug with ConsoleWrite(...)s.
For example, a simple one would be as before. However, you should probably use timeouts or variables and use the return for success/fail.
WinWaitActive("Window")
ConsoleWrite("Success")
Send("{DOWN}")
ConsoleWrite("Success")
Use following syntax for down key enter
Send("{DOWN 2}")
and similar for Up key enter
Send("{UP 2}")
How can i override default make parameters , which is:
make -w
Each time i create a project , i had to modify project settings , adding -j4 to make parameters.
Can i set make -w -j4 by default ?
EDIT
The best way to do this is setting MAKEFLAGS environment variable , i'm picking the only answer as the best only to shut this thread down.
To set this for UNIX, modify the *.desktop file of Qt Creator , prefix the line entitled Exec= with env MAKEFLAGS=-j4 , but be aware that you won't be able to cease building in QtCreator immediately after setting to multithread.
To make it global and permanent go to
Tools > Options > Build & Run > Kits > (pick your toolchain)
and fill your predefined env settings: MAKEFLAGS=-j4
In the qtcreator go to the "Projects tab" and set "Make arguments" as you like:
If you want -jx parameter to be default each time you create a new or open some project, you must add enviroment variable MAKEFLAGS to your system with value -jx.
For example, at ubuntu for 8 - threding compilation this options can be realized by adding
MAKEFLAGS="-j8"
to /etc/enviroments
Result will be:
After attempting implement the fix described in the question I eventually found the following (clearly this in only a solution to linux's that use the freedesktop concept of .desktop files):
The line in "/usr/local/share/applications/Nokia-QtCreator.desktop" was:
Exec=/opt/qtcreator-2.5.2/bin/qtcreator.sh %F
I changed it to:
Exec=env MAKEFLAGS=-j16 /opt/qtcreator-2.5.2/bin/qtcreator.sh %F
And got the functionality requested in the question.
Ok, I have no idea why following the instructions in the question I didn't get there but I didn't. I hope this explanation will help someone.
