View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to append some text to the file, files are mostly big, more then 100 mb. I found the cat command, so I can create a new txt file and then append it to the original file with it. Two questions:
1. Can I append text to the file instead of creating the new file and then appending it to the original file? eg:
Code:
cat file.avi "some text" > newfile.avi
2. cat takes several seconds to execute the merging files together, it seems that it is reading the original file first, is there a way skip the reading and just append the file?

How do you append text to an entry in an existing file? For example, lets say I have a file called "env.logon" in /home/myself/bin that contains the following text:
PATH=/bin:/sbin If I wanted to add, via command line, ":/usr/bin:/usr/sbin" to the PATH= and I
used the "echo" command (echo "PATH=:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin) it would create a second entry and my file would look like:
PATH=/bin:/sbin
PATH=:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin
What I want is for it to look like:
PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin
Is there a way to get this result via command line?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI am thinking of appending something to each line in a text file with Java.

If I need to append a set (or sets) of data to a file(or files) on remote hosts what is the best mechanism by which to do that? My first thought was ssh but the command syntax to append to a remote file isn't clear to me. Can anyone point me in the right direction here?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm doing an assignment for school, and while we have not yet learned regular expressions, my teacher would like us to use AWK to append text to certain lines in a file. What we've had to do is creating a listing of all links and directories in the /etc folder and place them in a text file. From this, we were to cut the first field (Permissions) and the ninth field (filename) and create another text file. Now the part that I'm struggling with is this and I'm not sure if I should be using sed or awk. We're supposed to ADD the text "DIR" to the beginning of any line that is a directory, and "LNK" to any that is a link, like so:
DIRdrwxr-xr-x redhat-lsb
DIRdrwxr-xr-x rhgb
LNKlrwxrwxrwx rnDIRc.key
DIRdrwxr-xr-x rpm
Obviously, I realize that the first character in the permissions denotes what sort of file it is, hence when I created my text file I used
ls -l | grep "^d" > file.txt
and
ls -l | grep "^l" >> file.txt
I'd like to learn how to properly do this, but struggling through pages on the internet hasn't been helping, nor has the --help command. Therefore, while I would like the answer, I'd also like to know what the heck I'm doing For example, I know I could delete lines with regex using d/[STUFF I WANT TO DELETE]/g (To get rid of all occurences) and I can substitute using s/foo/bar But I'm unaware of anyway to ADD text upon certain occurences, let alone two different circumstances.

View 1 Replies View Relatedeed to make a script to append a line to the bottom of multiple files (only certain files, but 100's spread over directories).Doing a find replace inside multiple files is easy, I use the followingfind /base/dir -name "*.txt" -exec perl -pi -w -e 's/FIND/REPLACE/g;' {} ;So I tried doing the followingfind /base/dir -name "*.txt" -exec echo "Append this" >> {} ;However this just appends all the text into a file called "{}". Whereas {} should be replaced with each file that's found.
View 1 Replies View Relatedmay be an advanced question but I need to know how to do this. Here at work I am in charge of recruiting and we have about 1,000 resumes in already. All of the resumes are in a .pdf format. I need to rename every .pdf in the following format:{firstnameLastname}.pdfThe only way I know how to do this is to convert all the .pdf files to text, extract the name out of the first few lines of text, import into excel, and then use VBA to rename the files in mass:Here is my logic so far:~Deskop/a = houses all the .pdfresumesOpen terminal: Code: cd ~/Desktop/afor f in *.pdf; do pdftotext -raw $f; done That will convert all of the preceding resumes into text filesNow I would like to append the name of the text file into the last line of the text file. So, for example, for Resume1.txt, I want to append "Resume1.txt" to the last line within Resume1.txt. So after I run the command I open Resume1.txt and on the last line within I want to see "Resume1.txt" on the last line, at the end of the resume.How can I do this? I would like to use a loop and have the terminal append the filename to the body of the text file until all of the have been appended.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have to modify formsweb.cfg file in Oracle IAS.
Problem description
In formsweb.cfg file are two lines with labels archive_jini= and archive= at the beginning of line. After equal sign (=) is row of filenames of java archives delimited by coma(,). When I insert a new jar file in java directory, I have to append the very same name of jar file to both lines if that name is not yet present.
Example snippet from formsweb.cfg
I want to append at a new line if the old line is non empty. so it would be something like
Code:
1
2
3//dont add here
Code:
1
2
3
//add here
but if sometimes there could be extra empty line, then add at the empty line. So the script needs to detect whether or not the last line is empty. i figured out the symbol for a new line pattern is ^ so it would probably be sed "a^stuff here"is this right? but i dont seem to get the right result
The s means substitute
The $ in this particular regex (regular expression) means end of the line.
The ; is what you're subbing. This works fine and well, but what if you want to append a / at the end of the line?
sed 's/$///' filename doesn't work.
