I am trying to do ps -A in code, but typing execlp("/bin/ps", "ps", "-A", NULL); outputs:
/bin/ps: No such file or directory
But I can see ps in the file directory so I have no idea what is wrong.

I am trying to build a list of files to be excluded.
The absolute path works fine!
But when I try to use the relative path. I get the following error:
rsync: failed to open exclude file exclude-list: No such file or directory (2)rsync error: error in file IO (code 11) at exclude.c(1178) [client=3.1.2]
the exclude-list is the file name.
It is in the source directory at the root
My syntax is
rsync -av --delete --exclude-from='exclude-list' /source /destination
I would appreciate any help
Great! explanation from Gordon Davisson!
I created a new directory
mkdir mydir

cd command into that directory:

IT WORKS!

wget -r --ftp-user="user" --ftp-password="pass" ftp://website.com/bat.bat -P %appdata%
when i checked appdata directory i found my file here :
C:\Users\ev\AppData\Roaming\website.com\bat.bat
i dont need it to create new dir i need it here :
C:\Users\ev\AppData\Roaming\bat.bat
Try the -nH parameter:
wget -r -nH --ftp-user="user" --ftp-password="pass" ftp://website.com/bat.bat -P %appdata%
From wget --help:

I'm trying to create a bash script to change the titles of my terminal windows so I can identify what they are doing. I spent a few hours on this and cant figure it out. The idea is to be able to execute settitle NewTitle. Thank you.
This is my echo:$PATH. It looks like Users/klik/bin is there twice. Maybe that is the issue?
~ klik echo $PATH
/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/Users/klik/bin:/Users/klik/bin
This is the script which was created in textedit in plain text format.
#!/bin/bash
# settitle: set the Mac Terminal title
# usage: to set the titlebar to 'PLAY', type: settitle PLAY
echo -e "\033]0;${1}\007\c"
This is my bash_profile and bin file.
if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
source ~/.bashrc
fi
export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin
alias desk='cd ~/Desktop/'
alias down='cd ~/Downloads/'
alias github='cd ~/github/'
This is my ls -a output
Current directories
~ klik ls -l $HOME/bin | pbcopy
total 8
-rwx--x--x# 1 klik staff 147 Mar 9 21:39 settitle.sh
Try this:
echo -e "\033]0;FreddyFrog\007\c"
You need to use -e to turn on interpretation of escape characters. You can also use printf.
printf '\033]0;%s\007\015' "Hippo Croco Horror Pig"
This issue above was that the file was saved with .txt extension. I dont know why this was the case given the ls command showed a .sh ext. At any rate, this is the process I used for creating this script and and executing it.
Open Finder -> Applications->TextEdit in Mac.
Select New Document at bottom left.
From menu select Format -> Make Plain Text
Paste in this code:
#!/bin/sh
# settitle: set the Mac Terminal title
# usage: to set the titlebar to 'PLAY', type: settitle PLAY
echo "\033]0;${1}\007\c"
Thanks to Alvin Alexander for the code.
Still in TextEdit select menu File -> Save
Uncheck "If no extension is provided, use ".txt" "
When I chose my file name I saved it with no extension so i could just type the command settitle NewTitle without having to type the extension every time.
Note the folder the file is being saved to. It defaults to desktop on my machine.
Open Finder -> Go -> Go to Folder
Type in the path to your User Bin folder: mine was /Users/klik/bin
You can check to see if you have a User/bin folder by running: ls -l from your home directory.
If you don't have a bin folder in this directory you can create one by going to your $HOME directory and executing:
mkdir bin
To find out what is your home directory see this
You can then open the directory by executing:
open bin
This will open the folder in Finder.
Drag the script file you created into this folder.
Make sure the script is executable by executing the following command from the folder the file is in or by including the path to the file in name of file:
chmod +x <name of file>
Make sure that the script is in your executable $PATH by executing:
echo $PATH
You will get something like this:
/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/Users/<you>/bin
If you dont see the path of your script, ie /Users/''/bin, then the script file is not in your executable path and you need to put it in your .bash_profile. Execute ls -l to see if you have a .bash_profile file.
ls -l
If you don't have one, make sure your are in your $HOME directory then create one by executing:
mkdir .bash_profile
Open your .bash_profile file in your default editor:
open .bash_profile
Or open with nano (to save and close nano see this link):
nano .bash_profile
Add the following line to the .bash_profile then save/close:
export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin
Exit the terminal to reset by executing:
exit
Open the terminal then type:
settitle <whateveryouwant>
I hope this saves someone some time. Thanks to Mark Setchell for his constructive help.

-bash: /etc/profile.d/rvm.sh: No such file or directory
-bash: /etc/profile.d/sm.sh: No such file or directory
Williams-MacBook-Pro:~ william$
I think this has something to do with an rvm-installation going wrong sometime in the past, but I can't seem to fix the error that shows up everytime i open up a new terminal window.
The solution was to cd to /etc/profile and comment out the two lines that was causing trouble.
The solution for me was to cd to /etc and to modify the profile file.
The previous answer to cd /etc/profile didn't work as on my Mac, "profile" is a file and not a directory.
oh so i cd into my folder

What i want to do is zip all the files within this folder then download it to my computer i am really new to ssh and this is a clients website but really want to start to use command line for speed, i have been looking a this reference http://ss64.com/bash/ to find the right commands but would really like some help from somebody please??
Thanks
cd path/to/folder/foldername
zip -r foldername.zip foldername * [use * if it has any sub directory]
Please try this code, it will solve your problem.
If you are in directory itself then
zip -r zipfilename.zip *
Go to folder path using cd command
zip -r foldername.zip foldername
Ex : zip -r test-bkupname.zip test
Here test is the folder name.
tar zcvf ../my_directory.tar.gz .
will create my_directory.tar.gz file.
scp ../my_directory.tar.gz username#your-ip:/path/to/place/file
will transfer file to your computer.
Looks like this is the webroot directory.
Why not zip the directory above (httpdocs / html / whatever) and then move this into the website space, and download from there?
i.e. go into the directory above the web root. For example, if your web root is /var/www/html/ go into /var/www/ and run the following commands:
zip -r allwebfiles.zip html
mv allwebfiles.zip /html/allwebfiles.zip
Then in your web browser go to http://mydomain.com/allwebfiles.zip and just download that file.
When extracting, you'd just need to either extract into /var/www/ OR extract into webroot and move all files up one level.
Use the following Ssh command to download multiple files at one time
mget ./*
