I’m using Manjaro Linux. I’ve changed my yt-dlp’s zsh configuration and now I get
❯ ytvp
deal_with_long_filename:1: command not found: xsel -ob
deal_with_long_filename:2: command not found: xsel -ob
The log shows
Usage: yt-dlp [OPTIONS] URL [URL...]
yt-dlp: error: no such option: --continue
--no-overwrites
--no-post-overwrites
--verbose
--restrict-filenames
--retry-sleep fragment:exp
Usage: yt-dlp [OPTIONS] URL [URL...]
yt-dlp: error: no such option: --continue
--no-overwrites
--no-post-overwrites
--verbose
--restrict-filenames
--retry-sleep fragment:exp
Why is it treating all options as a single one?
I’ve tried running the xsel -ob
command on its own and it works fine.
How do I fix this?
I would like to keep the send to background option that I was using. Would it give problems with the definition of the function
deal_with_long_filename
?
This is my configuration now
opts="--continue
--no-overwrites
--no-post-overwrites
--verbose
--restrict-filenames
--retry-sleep fragment:exp=2:64
--print-to-file"
