To set TZ before starting shelf and have the correct time in Audrey shelf, instead of the hard coded Central Time, I need a script that parses the TZ set by each user in /config/Timezone and exports this value before starting shelf too.
End result of the script should be:
export TZ=<parsed value>
shelf &
Any ideas if this is possible and how to do it?
Thanks!
try this (working from memory, not at my audrey right now...)
export TZ=`cat /config/Timezone`
note that those are backwards ticks (NOT apostrophes, NOT double quotes) around the cat /config/Timezone command, which tells the shell to replace the command with the results of the command.
hope this helps...
