Library Migration Keep in mind that compiling code with some library means using this library ABI. And function names are not the only thing that's part of the ABI. If, for example, some datatype struct was changed between versions, you code won't work. So it's not enough to be sure that the code have not used any function introduced in new version. |

How does “cp” handle open files? @Stuffy: Keep in mind that it may not be really reliable if it's not run by root user (the same problem is with fuser of course) as this tool may not show all the files. |

How does “cp” handle open files? To do what exactly? To copy all the files except open ones? I don't think there is any easy way of doing this (other than writin your own script that uses fuser+cp. Such copy would really be very unreliable. It won't copy any file that is opened in text editor for example. |

what is wrong with my simple choice menu script? @Joe: Just note that export is not needed to set RUN=0. Indeed is better not to use it since we don't want to pollute environment of newly created processes. Especially since OP sources this script instead of running it as a new process. |

what is wrong with my simple choice menu script? @Nanda: Just keep in mind what sourcing your script means and what problems it can make. It basically runs all the lines of your script inside of your bash so it may change your environment etc. |

what is wrong with my simple choice menu script? @Nanda: Your while loop is endless so you won't go anyware. You can add pwd command at the end of the loop to see that the current directory has changed. Or you can use break statement to leave the loop (so yes, you should use break statement for this case). |
