Synopsis
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
.. BEGIN SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
string collect [(-N | --no-trim-newlines)] [STRING...]
|
|
|
|
.. END SYNOPSIS

Description
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
.. BEGIN DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
``string collect`` collects its input into a single output argument, without splitting the output when used in a command substitution. This is useful when trying to collect multiline output from another command into a variable. Exit status: 0 if any output argument is non-empty, or 1 otherwise.
|
|
|
|
If invoked with multiple arguments instead of input, ``string collect`` preserves each argument separately, where the number of output arguments is equal to the number of arguments given to ``string collect``.
|
|
|
|
Any trailing newlines on the input are trimmed, just as with ``"$(cmd)"`` substitution in sh. ``--no-trim-newlines`` can be used to disable this behavior, which may be useful when running a command such as ``set contents (cat filename | string collect -N)``.
