That looks great...although the quoted space ("\ ") is a bit funky.
Is it sensible for svcs to remove the '\' here?
The problem is if I try to use that value...
start=$(svcs -l ssh|awk '/^method.*start.*/{print $3;}' -)
case $start in
:*)...
;;
*)
if [[ -f "$start" ]] ; then
...
fi
;;
esac
...then I need to do "something more" to what svcs
gives me. It's almost like a "cooked output" would
be nice.
