Subject: RE: how to parse filenames with spaces using regex
--UPDATE:
--Thanks for the help. I think I'm close, but I
think I ran a snag:
--When I try to mount the iso image, I get an error:
[snip]
[root@hmp perl]# mount -rt iso9660 -o loop /samba/hmp/iso/03/UNASSIGNED-03 -
DUMMY-03.iso /t
Usage: mount -V : print version
mount -h : print this help
mount : list mounted filesystems
mount -l : idem, including volume labels
So far the informational part. Next the mounting.
The command is `mount [-t fstype] something somewhere'.
[/snip]
--But check this out: you see the name of the file? It wants to
be mounted like this:
[snip]
mount -rt iso9660 -o loop /samba/hmp/iso/03/UNASSIGNED-03\ -\ DUMMY-03.iso
/t
[/snip]
--Check that part out with the "\" and the spaces. The above works,
but not what we were working on. I was trying to see test something:
[script]
foreach my $file ( split (/\n/, `ls -d1 $sambadir/*` ) ) {
print "we see file :$file:\n";
#$file=(split(//, $sambadir/$file) );
print "$sambadir/$file";
system ("/bin/mount -rt iso9660 -o loop $file $mount_pnt");
#chdir ("$mount_pnt");
#system ("cp $mount_pnt/* $padir/$region[0]/");
# don't need to open, just mount and copy
print "\n# - thus end the reign of terror of \$file $file-\n\n";
}
[/script]
--I thought that using the readdir would work, and it did bring
up a list of files, but they are not broken up by the "\". bummer.
I'm hitting myself in the head with a hammer because I believe
that using the "readdir" and "split (/\n/, `ls -d1 $sambadir/*)"
are doing the same thing. But I don't think that they are.
--So I know this is silly, but how can I figure out exactly
what the DOS files want (including the "\" and spaces) and
mount them as-is?
--I apologize if the explaination isn't crystal clear. If I need
to go into more detail, please let me know.
--Thanks!

perldoc -f readdir
Remember that the 'directory' portion is not in the 'dirBlock'
itself - only the names of files....
traditionally we do
my $demDir = '/Users/drieux/tmp/Junk';
opendir(DIR, $demDir) or die "unable to open Dir $demDir:$!\n";
my @files = grep { $_ ne '.' and $_ ne '..' } readdir(DIR);
close(DIR);
foreach my $file (@files) {
print "we see file :$file:\n";
open(FH, "$demDir/$file") or die "funny I can not open
$file:$! \n";
print $_ while <FH>;
close FH;
print "\n# -thus endeth the reading of \$file $file-\n\n";
}
