Do you need help?X

read the changelogs to see if they apply to your use. I'd choose .deb over source myself, but that's my preference. There are a couple issues that plague me that I haven't bothered to pursue yet -- the app borks if it runs out of storage space and has to be restarted, and sometimes I lose one of my three cameras, but a lot of those issues may be a flaky driver and a lack of really good USB busses on the machine. Start with the debs and move up if you need it.=20

Hey folks, help me out with this...please

andrew@basement:~$ for i in {1..3}; do echo $i; done 1
2
3
andrew@basement:~$ TEST=3D3; for i in {1..$TEST}; do echo $i; done {1..3}

in the first example, its obvious. In the second, $TEST gets replaced with 3, but then the {} doesn't get expanded. I'm sure I have to do some kind of wacky $({[ type thing, but I'm not able to grok it. any ideas?=20

the purpose is to be able to easily update some loops in a script for different numbers of object to iterate over. obvious, I guess.
