How to put quote character into string on CSS11500?

[jirka.novak]

I'm trying to write kal script. Our service returns response in this form:

status="0" version 1.0

or

status="1" version 1.0

I'm able to connect to, but I need to write

somethink like

socket waitfor ${SOCKET} "status="1""

But it causes syntax error. I tried \"1\", \'1\', ""1"", but nothing works.

Does anyone have idea how to write this?

Try:

socket waitfor $(SOCKET) "status=\'1\'"

or

socket waitfor $(SOCKET) "status='1'"

you could also provide hexadecimal value instead of text using the option 'raw' at the end of the socket command.

It works, thank you.

Note:

hexa codes have to be without 0x, so for

word 'status' I have to wait for:

! s t a t u s

socket waitfor ${SOCKET} "737461747573" raw

It doesn't work. I think, that \' sequence is interpreted as " only by echo command. If you try

set EXIT_MSG "Test \'"

and script ends with error, you will see

Test \'

But if you do the same with echo, you will se

Test "
