In Linux, the files were processing based on timestamp. How to process the files based on alphabets? My application is in windows. Here I am processed the files based on alphabetical order. While coming to linux its coming wrong.
View 5 RepliesI am running fully updated ubuntu 10.10 and now, since 2 days ago, when I open a file
in open office, gimp or gedit etc the directories and files now appear in reverse alphabetical order.
I am working on the script parsing specific message "TEST" from multiple file. The log file name looks like:
N3.2009-11-26-03-05-02.console.log.tar.gz
N4.2009-11-29-00-25-03.console.log.tar.gz
N6.2009-12-01-10-05-02.console.log.tar.gz
I am using the following command:
zgrep -a --text "TEST" * | awk -F"[ .,]" '{sub(".*:","",$6); sub(",.*","",$7); print $1,$6,$7,$10}
and getting
N3 2009-11-25 20:12:57 TEST
N4 2009-11-28 10:42:18 TEST
N6 2009-12-01 10:00:24 TEST
If I only want to search the log file after 2009-11-29, what shall I change the command?
I need to copy my music to a portable HDD in alphabetical order. My headunit in my car will only display the folders and files in the order that they were written to the disk so to have any form of logic to the album / track listings they need to be written to the disk in alphabetical order.
how to do this in openSUSE? I know dolphin doesn't do this.
I have a server with what appears to have 352 home directories (350 actually if you omit '.' & '..') & I am being asked to basically tally a list of whom all 350 users are in alphabetical order. Now I could sit here for days doing the 'finger' command to obtain their full name commented in '/etc/passwd' file but I would assume there is a script or way I could have Linux quirry the '/etc/passwd' file & take all the user 'comment' entries and export them to a list in alphabetical order. Does anyone know if this could happen and if so, how would I do something like this? I can't write bash / shell scripts to save my life
Code:
cmennens@mail]:/$ ls -l
total 160
drwxr-xr-x 352 root root 12288 Oct 21 13:41 home
This problem has been here for 2 months or so:
If I, in VLC, choose a folder with several mp4 or other multimedia format files, it will show em in the playlist in random order, definitively not alphabetical. that didnt use to happen before.
I'm trying to get Chinese filenames to be listed in alphabetical order according to pinyin. Long ago I remember having to install a particular package for that to happen, but in the past year or so I believe that ubuntu at least was doing that automatically. On my most recent linux installation, however, I find that it's not sorting file names by pinyin order. I'm wondering if I have forgotten to install something this time.

New to Fedora (from Windows), I am up and running ok with packages from the repository but only half ok with Processing, the Java graphics programming front end from processing.org.Their download gave me a .tgz file which Package Manager extracted for me into a location of my choice and where there is now a "processing" shell script.This works ok and I have managed to create a launcher on the desktop. That starts ok but always with processing's default action of giving you a new and automatically named work file.In Windows an existing Processing file (.pde file) could be "opened-with" Processing. Trying to do similar in Fedora I find that I am expected to nominate an Application to open with but Processing has not installed as an application.I guess the question is how do I promote Processing to be an Application?Or is there a different approach?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI use the below loop to process each file (listed in a text file) with a software. During processing the software asks me to enter a value and continues processing of that file after I enter the value. I have those values stored in a text file "myfile". What I want is to get the values directly from myfile when the software asks "please enter the title:". I dont want to enter them all manually. But i could not figure out how to code this in Bash script.

I have recently switched to using LXDE on my PC and I am on the whole pretty pleased with it. However,PCMan is giving me a really odd problem. Some of the files/folders are being displayed in the wrong order where they contain numbers. They are being ordered by their first digit not the whole number.

I want to write a script. I have the basic form working... but I would like to add some advanced features. I have a list of .zip files that have a version number in the filename (i.e. sudoku-134.zip, sudoku-176.zip, sudoku-203.zip, etc). I would like to have a script that will find the latest version of each game, and unzip it. I want the next to latest version left untouched. But anything older, I would like the unzipped folder deleted (But leave the .zip file)
Here's what I have so far:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
cd /var/www/vhosts/server.com/httpsdocs/games/$1
for file in `ls *.zip`; do
if [ -d ${file%.*} ]; then
echo
else
mkdir ${file%.*}
cd ${file%.*}
unzip ../$file > /dev/null
cd ..
echo 'date' $file >> /var/www/vhosts/games4roku.com/private/$1.log
fi
done
I can call the script with "game-unzip public" to unzip all the public games.
Here's my files:
Code:
sudoku-134.zip
sudoku-134/
sudoku-176.zip
sudoku-176/
When I add the latest version, sudoku-203.zip, I want it to unzip it to ./sudoku-203/ and rm -rf sudoku-134

View 1 Replies View RelatedIs anyone aware of a detailed "flow chart" -- arrows and decision diamonds, etc -- that describes the file access and permissions processing? I would love to see that diagram. Years ago on a platform far away (Digitial VAX/VMS) their manuals had such a flow chart that covered not only the user-group-owner and read-write-execute permissions decision making but also include "access control list" processing at a superficial level. If someone has access to the VAX/VMS flow chart, that might be a start toward sorting what linux does.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm running a blog on posterous. Some friends of me post messages there via mail, mostly with some PDF attachments. These PDFs are generated mostly on a MAC with Word. The standard extension of these files is foobar.doc.pdf. Unfortunately, Posterous ignores attachments with the extension .doc.pdf.
So, I'm looking for some workaround. For example, I could my web server with some script, which receives these mails, converts the filenames of the attachment in some way and posts the result to my posterous blog. Therefore I'm looking for some mail processing scripts, which enable me to do so.
I would like to read unix file permissions into a bash array for processing but tbh I have no idea how to do this. Then I will check for each individual access right l, d, x etc.
View 11 Replies View RelatedI have a Python script that copies a couple of DLL's and EXE to a directory before running the EXE. It can be a fresh copy or the files can already be in the target directory and are then overwritten. The script uses shutil.copy() to copy the files and that works but as the files are copying processing continues and the script tries to run the files mid copy, causing an error.
I need a way to wait for the files to finish copying before the script continues. Putting the thread to sleep isn't good enough, calling os.system("copy ...") also doesn't work, using os.path.exist() won't work because the file will exist during the copy.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am splitting a file based on the values read from an input file. The below one is the script.
1)How do I add the header which is present in the original file to the new split files created?(For eg. pharmacyf conatins header as table column names. The new files created (ODS.POS.$pharmacyid.$tablename.$CURRENT_DATE.dat) are without the header).
2) Also the script is creating 0 byte files for the pharmacyids which are not available in the intial file? Can this be avoided?
for pharmacyf in *
do
tablename=`echo $pharmacyf |cut -f4 -d'.' `
while read pharmacyid
do
grep -w $pharmacyid $pharmacyf >> $OUT/ODS.POS.$pharmacyid.$tablename.$CURRENT_DATE.dat
done< inputfile
done
i want to know why do we need to patch files based upon diff when we can directly overwrite the old file with the new file.

I am using "if" to force a word under the condition that the first letter of that word must be a letter of the alphabet, regardless of capitalization, using the " "" != "" " syntax.
Like so:

echo "Invalid input"
exit 1

in my text file of 5 columns 2 column is in DDMMYYYY format. (ie DATE OF BIRTH). how to use sort command for its ascending order and descending order.
Is the same can be use for the date format YYYYMMDD ?
