hello,

 

I have a zgemma with latest openpli. I need to show on screen the content of a file (which has 3-4 short lines max) in the tmp folder, infobar1, 2 etc through remote.

Infobars may be preferable, or a custom messagebox.

 

Please help me

 

thanks in advance

You should give us more details in order to be able to help, maybe you may want to search for emanuel's ihad e2 plugin tutorial which has a comprehensive set of examples.

Hi, if you mean a Shell command-line or script, you can use, for example, the Enigma Open-Webif interface for this purpose:

msg="Testing message for the OSD screen output on your TV.\n\n\nIt works fine !"
msg=$(echo -e "$msg" | sed 's/ /\+/g' | sed ':a;N;$!ba;s/\n/%0A/g')                      # replace all ' ' with '+' and replace all '\n' with '%0A'
wget -qO- "http://127.0.0.1/web/message?type=1&timeout=10&text=$msg" > /dev/null 2>&1    # show the Web-GUI info message

or to show a file

msg=`cat /tmp/ecm.info`
msg=$(echo -e "$msg" | sed 's/ /\+/g' | sed ':a;N;$!ba;s/\n/%0A/g')                      # replace all ' ' with '+' and replace all '\n' with '%0A'
wget -qO- "http://127.0.0.1/web/message?type=1&timeout=10&text=$msg" > /dev/null 2>&1    # show the Web-GUI info message

Very simple, you create a script in: /usr/script/  (if it doesn't exist yet just create the folder) and create for exemple the file displayfile.sh  make it executable chmod 755 displayfile.sh

 

With the following content:

#/bin/sh
cat /tmp/TheFileYouWant.txt

Go into Hotkey (I guess you need to enable the expert mode to see it).

The select the keypress you want to use and there select the script that you want to launch, in this case:  displayfile.sh

 

Press the Hotkey you defined and the content will be displayed on screen.

 

You also use the mrvica script instead of mine but Hotkey is the solution to launch it if it is placed into /usr/script/
