Been using gv and vi to build a postscript file. Now I would like to save the output of the program to a disk file. My problem is I can't figure out how to "print to a file".
View 2 RepliesMy Ubuntu Karmic install has a very useful Print-to-File Printer configured which allows me to generate Postscript and PDF files.
I have Windows XP running on Virtualbox and I want to be able to generate PDF files using this printer but there appear to be no Printers configured.
I am using system() command to save command output in txt file and i am storing in one character variable.
For example Code: system("ls>output.txt"); but what should i do when i have to save another one command output in the same txt file continuously, for example
Code:
The output of these 2 commands should come in one txt file continously it should get over write.
I have a problem with saving output from awk to a file. The commands I tried:
Code:
$ top | awk '/Cpu|Mem/ {if ($1 ~ /Cpu/) {printf strftime("%H:%M:%S")" "; printf strtonum($3)" ";} if ($1 ~ /Mem/) {printf ($5/$3)*100; printf "
";}}' > file.out
and
Code:
$ top | awk '/Cpu|Mem/ {if ($1 ~ /Cpu/) {printf strftime("%H:%M:%S")" "; printf strtonum($3)" ";} if ($1 ~ /Mem/) {printf ($5/$3)*100; printf "
";}}' &> file.out
In both cases file.out is empty. What am I doing wrong?

View 14 Replies View RelatedI have a problem when using awk:
e.g: awk '{processing text}' File1 > File2
But when I'm processing the File1, I want to print out some messages to the screen (not the File2). How can I do that?
Its my first post in here so please be patient I am trying to use regex in perl script to detect allowed words from the file and then print output to the screen.
As an example : I have text file with orders and returns :
Item2-SKU-2-11.08.2010-online
Item3-SKU-3-11.09.2010-return
Item4-SKU-4-11.09.2010-store
My question: is it possible to make sure that i am ony outputing to the screen orders based on few conditions like Item,order form e.g. online.And is it possible to have multiple matches (Item2 only diplay if ordered online etc)
Anyone know of any programs to convert a postscript file to a gerber file? LinkCAD can do it, but, it is very expensive and I can't get the demo to run.

I want to make a page in postscript or pdf format containing four lines of text and two png images.
Would you know an easy way to concatenate my text file with the two images in a ps or pdf file?
I need a solution that works via command line only as this is for a script.
I use redhat 5 for this and would prefer not having to install any extra software.
using ubuntu 10.4, have set a custom command to open my browser to a page using the following in System -> Preferences -> Startup Applications
Code:
chromuim-browser -kiosk http://wallboard
this works, but only for the next restart, any subsequent restart, and this 'application' has vanished from the list...
how do i add this 'application' as a persistent entry, not just for the next restart.
I am wondering if there is a basic tool out there that will work with graphics card powered by FOSS drivers that allows to adjust resolution (and configure secondary monitors) and then save that configuration so it can automatically be restored next time the system starts up.

I have just discovered that I can't print text from libreoffice writer/calc if the layout is set to landscape. The letters seems to have been stretched and printed over each other. If I print the same document in kword/kspread everything is printed as it should be. I have generated a pdf of the document and printed from okular/acroread, even then it's not printed correctly. Although it looks ok in okular/acroread. What else that can be seen is that when it's wrongly printed the printout is printed in the opposite direction compared to when it's printed correctly. I.e. the tail comes first on the paper so to say. Where should I begin to search for faults?

How to use cut to display on same line ?
Let's say I am pinging a host, and want to output to a file each reply and its timestamp of when this started.
I know that it can be done with a loop and a shell script. Something like this
DO
echo "$(date)" >> results.txt ###includes the time and outputs results to txt###
ping -c 4 HOST >> results.txt ###a total of 4 pings at a rate of 1 per second###
REPEAT UNTIL USER PRESSES CTRL-C
Now, my first issue is that I need to be able to see results real-time as well.
Is there a way one can print to BOTH a screen and output? If one uses the ">>" command, it is essentially sending everything to the file. Running another ping command in parallel is not an option.
When I save the output of "ls" command to a "txt" or "rtf" file, the color information is lost. Is there any way to retain the color code of different files/directories obtained by the command "ls --color" while saving?
View 14 Replies View RelatedWe have a lpr server for printing (not CUPS for compatibility with complicated domain/systems). We configured our linux systems -- RHEL4, RHEL5, and Ubuntu 10.04 -- so that lpr is one of the gtk print possiblities by adding 'gtk-print-backends = "lpr,pdf,file"' to gtkrc. This works great for several gtk-enabled applications like Acrobat Reader (acroread).
However, Firefox 3+ (tested 3.6.3 & 3.0.19) doesn't actually queue any lpr jobs until after quitting the application.

I do 'vim c1 c2' and I begin copying parts of c2 to c1 (yank, put). Now, each time I go back to c2, I must save c1 first. But it happens that I'm not sure I want to save it. Is there a way to go back and forth between c1 and c2, making changes to one of them, without having to write to disk before switching? Notice the changes must be kept.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to save notes against a file on linux... i want to save meta data about a file..because the file names are restricted in max length...So how to save notes or comments about a file on linux so that it gets saved along with the file itself...I used the notes tab in the file properties dialogbox.. but that way the notes stick to the file only on that OS only.. if i open that file in another linux os.. those comments/notes are gone...Way to embedd these notes into the file so that i dont lose them ever..At lease a solution that makes this possible on switching linux distros. if its not portable enough that these notes stick b/w windows and linux its ok for me.. but atleast if i format my linux os.. atleast i shouldnt lose those important notes..and be able to access on newer linux..
And i also have no idea if this notes tab was implemented to be linked with the OS only.. i dont see much use of it.. and a normal user also has noway to know this.. i also came to know on superuser chat from a buddy.. @Sathya ..this thing is more useless especially if u use ubuntu which has 6 months timeline..and crazy people like me who are always eager to upgrade their os as soon a new one is available..and any way i can search these notes from the terminal?
I'm using fedora 11. I want to do some operation like after saving a file (moving ,copying,..) the system need to ask that "DO you want to encrypt?" .

I connect with ssh to an Ubuntu server to edit some files in /var/www witch I have set the setgid bit:
# sudo chgrp -R www-data /var/www
# sudo chmod -R 770 /var/www
# sudo chmod -R g+s /var/www
I have added the user "user" to www-data group. Now I connect using ssh as user "user" to my server with nautilus. When I copy files using nautilus file get the group permission 'www-data' as they should. But if I edit a file using Gedit and save it, the file's group get changed to "user" group ?
