< p > Execute a shell command. A few simple file-based shell commands are
2011-06-08 01:15:11 +08:00
supported directly, in Unix-style syntax. Any command not listed
above is passed as-is to the C-library system() call, which invokes
2015-07-30 22:53:28 +08:00
the command in a shell.< / p >
< p > This is means to invoke other commands from your input script. For
2011-06-08 01:15:11 +08:00
example, you can move files around in preparation for the next section
of the input script. Or you can run a program that pre-processes data
for input into LAMMPS. Or you can run a program that post-processes
2015-07-30 22:53:28 +08:00
LAMMPS output data.< / p >
< p > With the exception of < em > cd< / em > , all commands, including ones invoked via a
2011-06-08 01:15:11 +08:00
system() call, are executed by only a single processor, so that
2015-07-30 22:53:28 +08:00
files/directories are not being manipulated by multiple processors.< / p >
< p > The < em > cd< / em > cmd executes the Unix “ cd” command to change the working
2006-09-22 00:22:34 +08:00
directory. All subsequent LAMMPS commands that read/write files will
2015-07-30 22:53:28 +08:00
use the new directory. All processors execute this command.< / p >
< p > The < em > mkdir< / em > cmd executes the Unix “ mkdir” command to create one or
more directories.< / p >
< p > The < em > mv< / em > cmd executes the Unix “ mv” command to rename a file and/or
move it to a new directory.< / p >
< p > The < em > rm< / em > cmd executes the Unix “ rm” command to remove one or more
files.< / p >
< p > The < em > rmdir< / em > cmd executes the Unix “ rmdir” command to remove one or
2006-09-22 00:22:34 +08:00
more directories. A directory must be empty to be successfully
2015-07-30 22:53:28 +08:00
removed.< / p >
< p > The < em > putenv< / em > cmd defines or updates an environment variable directly.
2013-10-30 23:57:57 +08:00
Since this command does not pass through the shell, no shell variable
expansion or globbing is performed, only the usual substitution for
2015-07-30 22:53:28 +08:00
LAMMPS variables defined with the < a class = "reference internal" href = "variable.html" > < em > variable< / em > < / a > command is
performed. The resulting string is then used literally.< / p >
< p > Any other cmd is passed as-is to the shell along with its arguments as
2011-06-08 01:15:11 +08:00
one string, invoked by the C-library system() call. For example,
2015-07-30 22:53:28 +08:00
these lines in your input script:< / p >
< div class = "highlight-python" > < div class = "highlight" > < pre > variable n equal 10
2011-06-08 01:15:11 +08:00
variable foo string file2
2015-07-30 22:53:28 +08:00
shell my_setup file1 $n ${foo}
< / pre > < / div >
< / div >
< p > would be the same as invoking< / p >
< div class = "highlight-python" > < div class = "highlight" > < pre > % my_setup file1 10 file2
< / pre > < / div >
< / div >
< p > from a command-line prompt. The executable program “ my_setup” is run
with 3 arguments: file1 10 file2.< / p >

< div class = "section" id = "restrictions" >
< h2 > Restrictions< a class = "headerlink" href = "#restrictions" title = "Permalink to this headline" > ¶< / a > < / h2 >
< p > LAMMPS does not detect errors or print warnings when any of these
2006-09-22 00:22:34 +08:00
commands execute. E.g. if the specified directory does not exist,
2015-07-30 22:53:28 +08:00
executing the < em > cd< / em > command will silently do nothing.< / p >
