I know that and didn’t say anything against it. Just saying the question is about trailing whitespaces and my suggestion was to look if the file contains trailing whitespace or if its a script error adding a whitespace to the variable. We don’t know so much about the issue.
Or better rename the file. A trailing whitespace in a filename is most likely an error and not what you want to have. As this is about trailing whitespace, not just somewhere in the middle. In general I assume the user already tried and uses quotes.
First, did you look if the filename itself contains a trailing whitespace? I had this issue a few times myself, thinking the script is broken, but in fact the file on the filesystem had a space. That is annoying. If your variable has an additional space and you want to remove it, then I think its better to find out where this space comes from (if its not the file itself), and solve the issue there. Because if you get an unexpected space, then this could be a bug in your script somewhere.
There are multiple ways to remove leading and trailing whitespaces with Bash. The best is not to call a command for this and rely on Bash substitution. This can get ugly, but luckily we can steal from Stack Overflow, :p (basically what we did before Ai):
trim() {
local var="$*"
# remove leading whitespace characters
var="${var#"${var%%[![:space:]]*}"}"
# remove trailing whitespace characters
var="${var%"${var##*[![:space:]]}"}"
printf '%s' "$var"
}
trim " text in the middle "

Not whole much to say:
It’s really simple as that.
Most people do.
I don’t understand that. Debian packaging repository works completely different than how NixOS works.
Little late, but currently watching the entirety of the talk. Very interesting to see a honest view from someone who is invested into safety and C++. The language itself will probably never be safe, but maybe “safe enough”.
Marathon. The best game most people will never play.
I would, but they don’t support my platform. Does that make me one of the “most people”? I am a “Linux Gamer”, therefore I am part of “most people”. We are not a niche platform after all it seems. :D
The masses of non passionate gamers don’t care the public perception or what the press has to say about a game. Especially so with popular franchises, see Pokemon, FIFA and Call of Duty as an example.
Great. Note looks like you are not familiar with GE? The installation is simple, just download the archive and unpack it under .local/share/Steam/compatibilitytools.d (or where your Steam is installed), so that you get something like .local/share/Steam/compatibilitytools.d/GE-Proton11-6-x86_64. Just unpacking the archive basically installs it. Restarting Steam is enough. There are tools that manage these custom Proton versions. I leave you a few relevant links:
It has additional fixes to Proton and is often more up to date. Some launchers such as Heroic Launcher I think integrate it too, so its usable outside Steam. I linked a gui tool to manage that, but you don’t need a manager if you simply download and unpack the archive yourself.
Edit: And no I am not an Ai, lol I just noticed my reply sounded a bit robotic.
Oh, its probably Proton then. There are or were number of games on Proton that were not playable because the videos didn’t work. It’s some sort of video driver issue or so. Depending on when you tried it, they might already updated it. There were number of fixes in recent months about video related issues.
If not a new normal Valve Proton version fix is, maybe the great alternative Proton GE could. In case if you find yourself trying it out again.
What components do you mean in example? Game got a “Playable” rating on Steam and the user reports sits at “Gold” on https://www.protondb.com/app/3092660 , with lot of them using Proton GE or its even flawless (according to them). Did you try Proton GE as an alternative to Steam Proton?
Because not everyone wants or can write any of them? If people like Rust and want to write and read Rust, then it makes sense to write it in Rust. Not in “any of them”. And when they see other projects written in Rust, it makes sense to review it, look into, adapt the code written in Rust. Not in any of the other languages, because the project is in Rust.
Let’s go back again to understand what my point was. I try to be clear as possible. The GNU tools are written in C. Only programmers who understand and can write in C can understand and write in C. But look… someone rewrote the GNU tools in Rust. Not in another language. In must be my lucky day, because Rust is my favorite and only language I write (that’s not true BTW, but that’s is besides). I loooove writing in Rust and immadiately open it up, look into, I can read and write in Rust. Not in another language.
What kind of argument is that?
I thought its obvious what I meant, based on the context of my entire reply. The argument is, anyone who writes and understands can make changes to the Rust code, but not on C or Python code. I can basic C coding, but wouldn’t trust me doing anything with it, but I would trust me doing something with Rust. Was it really that hard to understand? Also that means following is wrong:
Anyone who writes Python code can read, adapt and make changes to it
The code is Rust code. Anyone who writes Python code can NOT read, adapt and make changes to it. That’s my point with C vs Rust, because not everyone writes C (or Rust) code.
All is fine. Everything will continue as normal.

I would assume something like Fortnite, PUBG and Call of Duty games as an example. I’m curious to use cases outside of (obvious) games. Is there any situation that is not possible to do on a Linux desktop, that requires to use Android or iOS app? Like banking, is there any bank that only offers a mobile app and nothing else? That’s the issue I have right now, finding a real use case where I have to use it (obviously there is none for me personally, so finding it wouldn’t make it a requirement for me).
I’m super curious to what tools you would use? Other than games off course, I wanted to find a reason to finally get around and install Waydroid. But I just don’t find a reason to, please help. :D
Team Fortress 2 players: Your first time?
This is not about defending corporations. It doesn’t matter who does that, I don’t think writing new tools with a different license is bad. My opinion has nothing to do about who does that, if communities, or corporations. I think having tools in a different language than C, especially something like Rust, is a good thing. Anyone who writes Rust code can read, adapt and make changes to it.
And for licensing, GPL can be problematic in some cases that is not compatible with every license. Therefore having an alternative in MIT license is a good thing. Even if it ends up being in a proprietary program, its still better than not able to use the code. The old GPL code is still maintained independently.
