dzrong Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 There seems to be many option of the Gpascii,such as -i -2 ,is there a document telling how many options be there and how to use the options? Thanks
Sina.Sattari Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 This is the best explanation I could find: GPLinux Power PMAC ASCII File & STD I/O Syntax: gpascii [Options] Input Options: -iFILEIN -oFILEOUT -sSLEEP(usec) Output Options -i -o -e INP OUT ERR -s(useconds) Test Status ------ ------- ------- ------ -------- ------ --------- ------------- STDIN STDOUT STDERR NOT ACTIVE OK -iFILEIN FILEIN STDOUT STDERR ACTIVE (delays usec) OK -oFILEOUT -eERRFILE STDIN FILEOUT ERRFILE NOT ACTIVE OK ^C doesn't close file (use ESC\n) -iFILEIN -oFILEOUT -eERRFILE FILEIN FILEOUT ERRFILE ACTIVE (delays usec) OK I hope it is helpful.
AnthonyLH Posted July 26, 2013 Posted July 26, 2013 Dear all, I can't get gpascii -s option working : 172.23.1.169:/opt/ppmac# gpascii -s100 Error: Illegal input option Could someone help me on that, thank you. My goal: My C applications have time execution picks that seems to come from the "gpascii -i" i use to fill my rotary buffer. I would like to reduce thoses picks.
bradp Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 I do not know what gpascii -s100 should mean. If you enter gpascii --h you will get the list of options that I know about. Where did you get the information on a -s option?
AnthonyLH Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 I got this infos on this forum thread, just above : Input Options: -iFILEIN -oFILEOUT -sSLEEP(usec) -h not working: root@192.168.16.211 192.168.168.211:/opt/ppmac# gpascii --h Error: Illegal input option 192.168.168.211:/opt/ppmac# gpascii --help Error: Illegal input option root@192.168.16.211 192.168.168.211:/opt/ppmac# gpascii -h Error: Illegal input option
bradp Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Works for me. root@192.168.0.200 192.168.100.94:/opt/ppmac# gpascii --h This program is the command line input/output to the Power PMAC Command Processor The input options are the following: -i followed by the input file name. Default is the STDIN -o followed by the output file name. Default is the STDOUT -e followed by the error output file name. Default is the STDOUT -v Sets the verbose mode where status messages are printed -2 Enables global & user defined name string replacement with Power PMAC commands To terminate the program send an ESC with a NEWLINE If you are using the "-i" input file option you must use a CNTRL C to terminate the program. root@192.168.0.200 192.168.100.94:/opt/ppmac# Try gpascii--h as I was told this was the syntax but it did not work for me, I needed one space.
AnthonyLH Posted July 30, 2013 Posted July 30, 2013 Thank you Bradp, Do you see a reason why i can't get the -h option working?
kenyourek Posted May 24, 2014 Posted May 24, 2014 Thank you Bradp, Do you see a reason why i can't get the -h option working? Looks like you need two dashes before "h". This worked for me: gpascii --h I also got a few more options than those that bradp posted. This program is the command line input/output to the Power PMAC Command Processor The input options are the following: -i followed by the input file name. Default is the STDIN -o followed by the output file name. Default is the STDOUT -e followed by the error output file name. Default is the STDOUT -v Sets the verbose mode where status messages are printed -2 Enables global & user defined name string replacement with Power PMAC commands -n Do not append to a PPMAC response. The default is to add the ACK Default is no flush. This option cannot be used along with the -i option. -f Automatically flush data to the terminal after PPMAC response on. To terminate the program send an ESC with a NEWLINE If you are using the "-i" input file option you must use a CNTRL C to terminate the program.
