Hpux-admins:
I want to separate and sort my $PATH, which is getting way out of hand on
some of our machines:
# echo $PATH
/usr/sbin/:/usr/bin/:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/contrib/bin:/opt/n
ettladm/bin:/opt/fc/bin:/opt/fcms/bin:/opt/upgrade/bin:/opt/pd/bin:/usr/bin/
X11:/usr/contrib/bin/X11:/opt/hparray/bin:/opt/resmon/bin:/opt/pred/bin:/opt
/java1.2/bin:/opt/networker/bin:/opt/perf/bin:/opt/ignite/bin:/opt/hpnp//bin
:/opt/graphics/common/bin:/opt/java1.2/bin:/sbin:/home/root:/usr/symcli/bin:
/usr/emc/ESN_Manager:/usr/emc/FibreZone/bin:/usr/local/bin:/home/saroot/bin:
/opt/perf/bin:/usr/symcli/bin:/usr/symcli64/bin/
I seem to recall seeing some trick with:
Either
- awk
awk -F":"
awk {RS=":"; print $....
Or
- IFS
IFS=":" echo $PATH...
Where you could break up your $PATH into "separate" variables and sort/edit
them, and then put them back together.
Can anybody help me here?
Stuart
