  • NAME
      run-parts - run scripts or programs in a directory
  • SYNOPSIS
      run-parts [--test] [--verbose] [--report] [--umask=umask] [--arg=argument] [--help] [--version] directory
  • DESCRIPTION


      run-parts runs a number of scripts or programs found in a single directory directory . Filenames should consist entirely of upper and lower case letters, digits, underscores, and hyphens.  Subdirectories of directory and files with other names will be silently ignored.
      Scripts must follow the #!/bin/interpretername convention in order to be executed.  They will not automatically be executed by /bin/sh.
      The files found will be run in the lexical sort order of the filenames. OPTIONS
      --test
      print the names of the scripts which would be run, but don't actually run them.
      --verbose
      print the name of each script to stderr before running.
      --report
      similiar to --verbose , but only prints the name of scripts which produce output.  The script's name is printed to whichever of stdout or stderr the script first produces output on.
      --umask= umask
      Sets the umask to umask before running the scripts. umask should be specified in octal.  By default the umask is set to 022.
      --arg= argument
      Pass argument to the scripts.  Use --arg once for each argument you want passed.
      --
      Specifies that this is the end of the options.  Any filename after -- will be not be interpreted as an option even if it starts with a hyphen.
      --help
      Display usage information and exit.
      --version
      Display version and copyright and exit.
