External Client scripts and MACHINE environment 🔗 link

Hi All

I just started using bb-cpu2[1] on ~hobbit/client/ext of version 4.1.2.
I am noticing it $MACHINE has no value inside the script while I run a
test like this
	./bin/bbcmd sh -x ~hobbit/client/ext/bb-cpu2.sh

Here is a google cache of the bb-cpu2 on deadcat.net since the site
seems kind a slow now.
	http://66.102.7.104/search?q=cache:6p53UoHzUEcJ:www.deadcat.net/BB/ext/cpu2+cpu+site:deadcat.net&hl=en

I checked all the emails upto Oct 5th and don't think saw a good answer
to this problem.

I hate to declare the value of MACHINE inside the script. Any suggestion
would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

It *is* set when you run the script as a client extension, because 
$MACHINE is set by the "runclient.sh" script that starts up the client.
It sets these: MACHINE MACHINEDOTS BBOSTYPE HOBBITCLIENTHOME

But it would be nice if you could test client scripts just with bbcmd.
I'll see if I can make bbcmd pick up default settings for the
MACHINE, MACHINEDOTS and BBOSTYPE settings. Meanwhile, you can test
your script with

HOBBITCLIENTHOME=`pwd` \
MACHINEDOTS=my.local.hostname \
MACHINE=my,local,hostname \
BBOSTYPE=linux \
./bin/bbcmd --env=/usr/lib/hobbit/client/etc/hobbitclient.cfg \
-x ~hobbit/client/ext/bb-cpu2.sh

I don't have a problem with $MACHINE being set but I do set other
variables to get the list of ext's working in
client/etc/hobbitclient.cfg.  Here is my list, maybe it will be of some
help to you or others:

these 
#    in the script itself.

Many scripts also use some of the pre-defined variables in the file,
make sure they are defined with the correct path for your systems.
