[SOLVED] bash escape dash
by qrange from LinuxQuestions.org on (#546S6)
I get this error:
Code:$ printf "-4"
bash: printf: -4: invalid option
printf: usage: printf [-v var] format [arguments]
is there a way to escape the dash sign, so its not seen as option?
I need it for swaks command instead of printf.
Thanks.
