[SOLVED] Any way to make commands in bash scripts in the Linux terminal accept whitespace characters?
(piefed.cdn.blahaj.zone)
Edit2: Solved! Thank you all! 🥰 I was supposed to put quotation marks around the command argument variable/substitute within the script, as in scanimage -d [device] –format=png -p -o “$1”
Edit: turns out it's not the accented character, but the whitespace character in front of július.png, since the script doesn't accept julius.png either.
#!/bin/bash
# name of the script is SCAN.bash
scanimage -d [device] --format=png -p -o $1
I have tried ' ', " " and to escape it with \
./SCAN 'anyu 1988 július.png'
./SCAN "anyu 1988 július.png"
./SCAN anyu\ 1988\ július.png
But it throws argument without option. It works fine if I type it out instead of scripting.
The target language is Hungarian and I have generated the necessary locale.
It does, bash uses your locale and if the umlauts are displayed correctly it is set to utf-8 or similar. Your other optiones aren’t parsed correctly
` #!/usr/bin/env bash
filename=“$1” angle=“$2” resolution=“$3” `
Didn't cross my mind to put the quotes in the scrip 🤣 Thanks!
