== pipe stdout and stderr to two different processes in shell script? ==
 * From [[https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9112979/pipe-stdout-and-stderr-to-two-different-processes-in-shell-script/31151808#31151808]]
 * in bash {{{
command1 > >(command2) 2> >(command3)
}}}
 * Posix {{{
{ command 2>&1 1>&3 3>&- | stderr_command; } 3>&1 1>&2 | stdout_command
}}}

=== Description of bash components used in script below. ===

`"$@"`
 *  is all the command line parameters as a list

`set -- "$@" "$1"`
 * adds the first command line parameter to end of list, making it one longer

`shift`
 * shift's the command line parameters to the left, reducing them by one

`$#`
 * Is the length or number of command lime parameters.

 * One way to use all of this, is where we want to loop through all the command line parameters, filtering some of changing them is some way.
Here is an example that filters a specific parameter (e.g --values=xyz).
It loops through all of them adding the ones we want to keep to the end and shifting left dropping the first one every-time.
{{{
#!/bin/bash
argc=$#
j=0
while [ $j -lt $argc ]; do
    case "$1" in
         --values=?*)
              # do nothing remove this
              ;;
         *)
              set -- "$@" "$1"
              ;;
    esac

    shift
    j=$((j + 1))
done
}}}

== Bash arrays(list) associative arrays(maps/dict) ==
 * https://www.baeldung.com/linux/bash-array
 * Indexed array eg. {{{
declare -a indexed_array=("Baeldung is" "so much" "cool")
echo "Size of array:" ${#indexed_array[@]}
echo "With quotes:"
for element in "${indexed_array[@]}"
    do
        echo "["$element"]"
    done
unset indexed_array[0]
}}}

 * associative array e.g. {{{
declare -A associative_array=(["one"]="Baeldung" ["two"]="is" ["three"]="cool")
for key in ${!associative_array[@]}
    do
        echo "["$key"]:["${associative_array[$key]}"]"
    done
}}}

== Print 100 blank lines ==
{{{ printf '\n%.s' {1..100} }}}
