Including a command within the wiki

To include a command within the wiki, you should use the {{Command}} template. This template detects the bash syntax. For example, the code

{{Command|cd src; make && make install; cd ..}}

results in:

cd src; make && make install; cd ..

Special Characters "=" and "|"

Since {{Command}} is a template, the "=" and "|" signs are interpreted by the wiki.

To include an equality sign, use the meta-template =. For example, the code:

{{Command|./configure --prefix{{=}}$HOME && make && make install}}

results in:

./configure --prefix=$HOME && make && make install

To include a pipe symbol, use {{!}}.

Including a Set of Commands

You can use the {{Commands}} template to include a set of commands. You may then write each command on a separate line, and prepend the | character in front of each command. For example, the code

{{Commands
|cd src
|make
|make install
|cd ..
}}

results in:

cd src
make
make install
cd ..

Modifying the Command Prompt

If you want to modify the command prompt, you may do it by including a prompt argument to the template. For example,

{{Command|prompt=[name@briaree ~]|cd src; make && make install; cd ..}}

results in

[name@briaree ~]

cd src; make && make install; cd ..

In the same way,

{{Commands
|prompt=[name@briaree $]
|cd src
|make
|make install
|cd ..
}}

results in

[name@briaree $]

cd src
make
make install
cd ..

Displaying the Result of a Command

You can display the result of a command (and only one) by adding the option result. For example,

{{Command
|df -h .
|result=
Sys. de fich.         Tail. Occ. Disp. %Occ. Monté sur
/lustre2/home         516T  340T  150T  70% /home
}}

results in : ```bash $ df -h . Sys. de fich. Tail. Occ. Disp. %Occ. Monté sur /lustre2/home 516T 340T 150T 70% /home
