How do I create a “here document” within a shell function? @glennjackman Using spaces instead of tabs could indeed be the source of my problem. I've arranged my text editor to use two spaces instead of tab by default. Thanks! |

How do I create a “here document” within a shell function? That worked for me, @Ярослав_Рахматуллин. I don't think that the [-] is an option for Darwin's here files. cat << _EOF_ not cat <<- _EOF_ |

How do I create a “here document” within a shell function? Thanks @Ярослав_Рахматуллин Though adding the - to << didn't solve my problem, removing the whitespace before the _EOF_ did. Perhaps "here documents" with cat << works in Darwin but not cat <<-. It's a shame since <<- is so useful. Move your comment into your answer and I will accept it. Addendum: bash may in fact be broken. Possibly broken by me, possibly Mac's Darwin's limitations... |

Is there a simpler form of find . -name “*substring_of_filename*” on Mac OS X and Linux? Thanks, @user_unknown. I couldn't figure out why I wasn't getting find ~ -name "*.pdf" to work on my mac os x until I tried leaving out the quotes. In Mac OS X, it seems that one must leave out the quotes. |
