As dj_segfault points out, the shell can do most of this for you. Looks like you’ll have to fall back on something external for lower-casing the string, though. For this you have many options, like the perl one-liners above, etc., but I think tr is probably the simplest. # first, strip underscores CLEAN=${STRING//_/} # next, … Read more
The event when user releases his finger is MotionEvent.ACTION_UP. I’m not aware if there are any guidelines which prohibit using View.OnTouchListener instead of onClick(), most probably it depends of situation. Here’s a sample code: imageButton.setOnTouchListener(new OnTouchListener() { @Override public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) { if(event.getAction() == MotionEvent.ACTION_UP){ // Do what you want return true; … Read more
Generally, fgets() is considered a good option. It reads whole lines into a buffer, and from there you can do what you need. If you want behavior like scanf(), you can pass the strings you read along to sscanf(). The main advantage of this, is that if the string fails to convert, it’s easy to … Read more
A better way is to use ScrollView and Keyboard.dismiss. By using ScrollView when the user taps outside of textInput, keyboard dismissed. It’s done because ScrollView default property for keyboardShouldPersistTaps is never. It’s the behavior the user expects. For dismiss the keyboard, or it’s equivalent blur the textInput, when the user tap on the login button … Read more
For those who can’t parse arguments and still get “error: unrecognized arguments:” I found a workaround: parser.add_argument(‘-d’, ‘–dmp’, nargs=”+”, …) opts = parser.parse_args() and then when you want to use it just do ‘ ‘.join(opts.dmp)
You should find the ‘expect’ command will do what you need it to do. It’s widely available. See here for an example More examples here A very rough example: #!/usr/bin/expect set pass “mysecret” spawn /usr/bin/passwd expect “password: ” send “$pass” expect “password: ” send “$pass”
Unfortunately, almost no one of the participants ever clearly understands what are they talking about. Literally. Only Kibbee managed to make it straight. This topic is all about sanitization. But the truth is, such a thing like wide-termed “general purpose sanitization” everyone is so eager to talk about is just doesn’t exist. There are a … Read more
Try java.io.Console.readPassword. You’ll have to be running at least Java 6 though. /** * Reads a password or passphrase from the console with echoing disabled * * @throws IOError * If an I/O error occurs. * * @return A character array containing the password or passphrase read * from the console, not including any line-termination … Read more
Python 3: input = int(input(“Enter the inputs : “) or “42”) Python 2: input = int(raw_input(“Enter the inputs : “) or “42”) How does it work? If nothing was entered then input/raw_input returns empty string. Empty string in Python is False, bool(“”) -> False. Operator or returns first truthy value, which in this case is … Read more
sentinel=”” # ends when this string is seen for line in iter(input, sentinel): pass # do things here To get every line as a string you can do: ‘\n’.join(iter(input, sentinel)) Python 2: ‘\n’.join(iter(raw_input, sentinel))
