hi, I think this is u want echo ""> filename or cat /dev/null >filename
-Logu -------------- hi all, is there a method/command in linux to empty the contents of a file without deleting it ? i mean something which does the equivalent of: -- bash$rm -f filename bash$touch filename -- with the 'rm' part being replaced by a process which deletes all data ? i tried RTFM but failed. thanks in advance, hareesh. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: Dice - The leading online job board for high-tech professionals.
