Then it work like a charm... [07:50] ok no the solution is to disable "solution" pluggin, some inside is the problem [07:51] ok i have got it!!! [07:51] it's the option "keep preview of minimised application that made that!

I want it so if I put an arguement after the command, no matter what the arguement is, it'll give the output with "?" at the end of it. [08:30] or could someone recommend me a better place to ask this question? [08:31] it's easy... [08:32] I'm really new to this though :/ [08:32] echo $1 ... [08:32] Can you give me an example of how to do it? [08:34] https://thepb.in/p/76hErpxOnJqSV [08:34] #!/bin/bash [08:34] is it what you wanted to do? [08:34] (ps it should be named name.sh and you should make it runnable) [08:39] I still can't figure out how to have it be on the same line as the output... Sorry that I really know nothing. [08:42] 2D video acceleration works only in Windows guests :( i just installed guest additions from autorun.sh provided by VB [08:42] gonna try with chrome if same issue to play videos [08:48] "on the same line as the output" i do not understand what you mean [08:51] https://p.defau.lt/?11OPuA5M3Fz_F8OlLrTVFg is what it's like in the terminal, but I want it to be output?jd [08:55] Guest24249: i do not understand, what i give you did that [08:55] "./test.sh test [08:55] The first parameter is : test" [08:56] echo "The first parameter is : ?$1" ==> The first parameter is : ?test [08:56] just change "the fist parameter is" by "output?" [08:57] ./test.sh test [08:57] Output?test [09:09] So let's say the script is to run "date +%d" when I run the script with the arguement jd, I want the output to be 09?jd [11:49] system monitor has no total value for CPU and Memory [11:50] how to has it done? [11:59] use a caltulator [11:59] calculator [11:59] sameh: 1/ try hanging around long enough for an answer; 2/ try using the cli app called "glances". [12:00] and use it in the f12 dropdown!

[22:38] rdute: try to replace curl -F with curl -Fs or curl -F --silent [22:39] What happens is that curl will by default output information on data transferred unless you tell it otherwise. The -s or --silent option tell curls to shush [22:41] s/tell curls/tells curl [22:49] I tried a couple, but itturned out I had to put the silent argument before -F [22:51] yeah. my bad. the F option requires an argument, which is the target address. So s must come before F [22:51] or after the argument to F [22:51] Alright, thanks for the help!
