[Leve 1] Use usb to com to connect SPARC machine in OpenSolaris.

Today, I try to use my colleage's usb to com cable, to connect SPARC machine.
1. check /dev/term folder first.
# ls -al /dev/term
total 8
drwxr-xr-x   2 root root   2 2009-11-10 18:20 .
drwxr-xr-x 252 root sys  252 2009-11-10 18:20 ..
2. connect cable then try again.
# ls -al /dev/term
total 9
drwxr-xr-x   3 root root   3 2009-11-10 18:00 .
drwxr-xr-x 253 root sys  253 2009-11-10 18:00 ..
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root root  48 2009-11-10 18:00 0 -> ../../devices/pci@0,0/pci1043,8263@1d/device@1:0

3. use tip command to connect SPRAC machine.
PS. you have to set baud rate to 9600.
# tip -9600 /dev/term/0

4. Start the SPARC machine then you will get the console.

Wish this helps.

Image
If you want to give a list for user to choose, you can use the option "--list". The command synopsis as below: SYNOPSIS      zenity  --list [--title=title] [--window-icon=path] [--width=width]    [--height=height] [--timeout=seconds] [--column=text] [--checklist]       [--radiolist] [--separator=character] [--multiple] [--editable] [--print-column=number] [--hide-column=number] Just like " --calendar ", if you press "ESC" key or click button "Cancel", the return code will be "1". If you select one option and click "OK", zenity will response the option and return the code will be "0".

[Level 2] iif in Python

If you want to implement iif in Python, please refer to the following sample code: #!/bin/env python def iif(b): return 'It\'s True' if b else 'It\'s False' print iif(True) print iif(False) And the following sample, guess what will you get! #!/bin/env python b = True print 'b: %s' % 'Ture' if b else 'False' b = False print 'b: %s' % 'Ture' if b else 'False' Result: $ ./iif.py b: Ture False The second result is "False", not "b: False". Why??? Because the prededence of string concatenation is higher than if. Therefore you need to use () to make it correct. #!/bin/env python b = True print 'b: %s' % 'Ture' if b else 'False' b = False print 'b: %s' % ('Ture' if b else 'False') Wish this helps. regards, Stanley Huang
