When I run the following command:

yiic webapp main /home/david123/domains/david123.servehttp.com/public_html/main

It waits for my answer:

Create a Web application under '/home/david123/domains/david123.servehttp.com/public_html/main'? [Yes|No]

Rather than entering Yes/No each time I run this command, I would like to pre-supply the answer to the command. What should I append to my original command?

yiic webapp main /home/david123/domains/david123.servehttp.com/public_html/main

You should prepend an invocation of yes.

yes Yes | yiic webapp main /home/david123/domains/david123.servehttp.com/public_html/main

Thanks a lot for your answer. It has solved my problem. The program only asks me one question so I only need a single yes, right? – bobo Dec 21 '11 at 0:44

The yes command will keep supplying yesses whether the program needs them or not. – David Schwartz Dec 21 '11 at 0:46
Sounds like some former coworkers. – ceejayoz Dec 21 '11 at 1:24
@David Schwartz I didn't know there exists such an interesting command. Thanks a lot for your information. – bobo Dec 21 '11 at 8:18
