genupulasduanedesign, whats the way to create simple .bin files ?13:28
genupulasI mean i want a bin file which can print "hi" when a execute that13:29
geirhaWhat's a .bin file?13:32
genupulasits a binary file.13:33
geirhaOk, so you want a compiled binary executable that says hi when you run it?13:34
geirhaThen you likely want to write it in C or C++13:34
genupulasany language13:35
geirhaIf you're thinking of install.bin etc which you find for obscure software packages, those are not necessarily binary, they're just badly named13:37
geirhaIf you want a script, you just create a new text file and put in the two lines:  #!/bin/bash  and  echo hi13:38
genupulasgeirha,  sir I am just trying to made one for me13:38
geirhagenupulas: Sure, just trying to figure out what you want exactly13:39
genupulasgeirha, thank you sir.13:40
geirhaAnyway, save that file as e.g. "myscript", then make it executable by running   chmod +x myscript    lastly you can run it with   ./myscript13:41
genupulasso does it give back in .bin format ?13:41
geirhano, there's not really any ".bin format"13:42
genupulassome files do exist in .bin format. for example our Java software .13:43
geirhaby .bin then, do you mean filenames that end with ".bin", or...?13:43
genupulasI want to create one , something like hello.bin and when I execute that It should provide me some output like "hi"13:45
geirhathen you should save it as "hello", not "hello.bin"13:46
geirha".bin" at the end of a filename bears absolutely no meaning, so you might as well just omit it.13:46
genupulasgeirha,  one min sir I will give you some link.13:49
geirhaAnyway, to learn writing bash scripts, I recommend http://mywiki.wooledge.org/BashGuide14:09
geirhaThere are many other guides and tutorials on bash out there, but in general they're unfortunately mostly garbage. It's best to stick to the resources in /topic #bash if you want to avoid bugs.14:10
