Shell Script Question
Posted by jscholes, 03-13-2010, 08:55 AM Hi, I have a Windows port of the Unix/Linux uptime command. It shows system uptime, but not CPU load averages or the number of users logged on. Example: I want similar output from the uptime command on my Linux server. I know how to do this with PHP, using string split functions, but have no idea how to do it in a Bash script. I believe I'd have to use regexp in some way, shape or form, but I'm a complete newby when it comes to regexp. Can anyone please help me with this? Current output of uptime command on Linux: Desired output: Thanks.
