A short question:

I have a service defined like this: (navigate.srv)

string[] path
---
bool command_processed

I would like to call it by a terminal with a command like:

rosservice call /navigate ...

I have tried with:
... "path1, path2, path3"
... 'path1, path2, path3'
... "path1", "path2", "path3"
... 'path1', 'path2', 'path3'
... path1 path2 path3
... path1, path2, path3
...
But i don't find the correct text chain(argument) to the service works. Could someone help me?

It's a list, so something along '{path: []}. 'Can you try the "cheater" way and try tab completion?

Thank you very much. The "cheater" way was the solution. I had underestimated the power of tab ;)

The tab completion is in this case surprisingly helpful! +1
