%% typeset [±LRZfilrtux [n]] [name[=value]] ...
Parameter assignments remain in effect after the command completes. When invoked
inside a function, a new instance of the parameter name is created. The parameter value
and type are restored when the function completes. The following list of attributes can be
specified:
-L Left justify and remove leading blanks from value.Ifn is nonzero, it defines the
width of the field. Otherwise, it is determined by the width of the value of first
assignment. When the name is assigned, the value is filled on the right with blanks or
truncated, if necessary, to fit into the field. Leading zeros are removed if the
-Z
option is also set. The -R option is turned off.
-R Right justify and fill with leading blanks. If n is nonzero, it defines the width of the
field. Otherwise, it is determined by the width of the value of first assignment. The
field is left-filled with blanks or truncated from the end if the parameter is reassigned.
The
-L option is turned off.
-Z Right justify and fill with leading zeros if the first non-blank character is a digit and
the
-L option has not been set. If n is nonzero, it defines the width of the field. Oth-
erwise, it is determined by the width of the value of first assignment.
-f Cause name to refer to function names rather than parameter names. No assign-
ments can be made to the name declared with the typeset statement. The only
other valid options are -t (which turns on execution tracing for this function) and
-x (which allows the function to remain in effect across shell procedures executed in
the same process environment).
-i Parameter is an integer. This makes arithmetic faster. If n is nonzero, it defines the
output arithmetic base; otherwise the first assignment determines the output base.
-l Convert all uppercase characters to lowercase. The uppercase -u option is turned
off.
-r Any given name is marked "read only" and cannot be changed by subsequent assign-
ment.
-t Tag the named parameters. Tags are user definable and have no special meaning to
the shell.
-u Convert all lowercase characters to uppercase characters. The lowercase -l option is
turned off.
-x Mark any given name for automatic export to the environment of subsequently exe-
cuted commands.
Using + instead of - causes these options to be turned off. If no name arguments are
given but options are specified, a list of names (and optionally the values) of the
parameters that have these options set is printed. Using
+ instead of - retains the
values to be printed. If neither names nor options are given, the names and attributes
of all parameters are printed.
ulimit [-HSacdfst][limit]
Set or display a resource limit. The limit for a specified resource is set when limit is
specified. The value of limit can be a number in the unit specified with each resource, or
the keyword unlimited.
The -H and -S flags specify whether the hard limit (-H) is set or the soft limit (-S) is set
for the given resource. A hard limit cannot be increased once it is set. A soft limit can be
increased up to the hard limit. If neither -H nor -S is specified, the limit applies to both.
The current resource limit is printed when limit is omitted. In this case, the soft limit is
printed unless -H is specified. When more than one resource is specified, the limit name
and unit are printed before the value.
If no option is given, -f is assumed. The options for ulimit are as follows:
-a List all of the current resource limits.
-c List or set the number of 512-byte blocks in the size of core dumps.
-d List or set the number of kilobytes in the size of the data area.
