Some queries, like CMS QUERY DISK and CP QUERY MDISK, have headers in
their responses that can't be suppressed. When I run a list of queries,
I need to skip the header in each response.
If I can SET EMSG OFF and know a unique string in the response header,
then I can just skip the headers:
... | cp | strnfind "TargetId" | ...
Or, if EMSG is not OFF, I'll always have either the header or an error
message, so I can merge the response with a unique string for each query
and skip two lines:
(end /) ... | query: chop 0 | pad 1 x | response: faninany
| outside "x" 2 | ...
/ query: | cp | response:
If I don't control EMSG but do know a unique string in the header, I can
combine the two techniques:
(end /) ... | query: chop 0 | pad 1 x | response: faninany
| outside "x" "TargetId" | ...
/ query: | cp | response:
In the general case, though, I wind up either numbering the queries:
(end /) ... | query: chop 0 | specs number 1 | response: juxtapose
| header: unique 1.10 first
/ query: | cp | response:
/ header:| not chop 10 | ...
or just running a whole new pipeline for each one:
(end /) ... | query: chop 0 | copy
| specs "callpipe *..1: || take 1 || cp || drop 1 || *..1:"
| issue: pipcmd
/ query: | issue: | ...
Have I overlooked a simpler way?
