I have a file with no regular way to grep or sed for any regular expression. The wordings, fields, spacings are random. code...
I want to extract character positions 3 to 10 including spaces. code...
I have a csv file in this format:
Code:
1,characterswithnospace
2,same
4545,characters
I want to extract only the strings after the comma,
I have one question.
Assumed I have have a variable $userlist, it has the following contents:
brownj
smithk
smithk2
smithk3
hynesp
hynesp2
leeb
How can I write a bash script that extracts all the strings smithk, smithk2, smithk3, etc from variable $userlist, and assigns these strings to a new variable?
I'm not sure if this is possible or even where to start. I assume that this can be done with an sh script using tar or similar.I have several very large zip files that contain images for all of the products in my online store. Each image is named after its 13 digit SKU (for example, 9987788000012.jpg). In order to import products into my store, all images are placed into a media directory. Unfortunately, there are over 100,000 images.
So I would like to break the images into sub-folders based on file name. For example, when I extract store_images.zip (or tar or whatever), my extract script would create directories (if they don't already exist) based on the first three digits of each image name, placing each image into the appropriate bottom level directory. For example, "9987788000012.jpg" would be placed in the following directory "media/9/9/8", with media as the root and "8" as the directory that holds any images that start with "998". Perhaps two sub-folders would be less cumbersome.Assuming this requires a script, particularly since it involves scanning image names, creating folders, and saving images to specific directories, which language would serve my needs best? PHP? Has anyone had to do something similar?

5. What key quits the more utility and displays the shell prompt?
6. What command starts a child shell as the super user, taking on root's identity and environment?

I notice that on DistroWatch, the descriptions include "debian based", "arch based", etc. For the newbie, is there any practical difference between the different bases, or is it a Coke vs Pepsi type question?
Is a distro based on Debian say, easier for a newbie to learn or work with than say one that is FreeBSD based?
When you use an IDE and it asks you if you want frame based or dialog based, what is the difference?

View 2 Replies View RelatedIt says in the geany documentation that i can specify multiple cursor positions. But after i define a snippet like that - lets say for example:
Code:
for=for ($i = 0; $i < %cursor%; $i++){ %cursor% }
it only takes me to the first cursor point. A second tab results in a regular tab being inserted into the code..

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am using sed to process an ascii tcpdump file whereby each packet is processed into a line with the same number of columns and useful information is pulled out like the time, packet type, length, and also IP addresses, payload type and port numbers where appropriate. The time is already changed to seconds, followed by the protocol over ethernet, such as IP, IP6, ARP etc. and I can change anything it detects as IP, IP6 and ARP into some other string, pulling out necessary information depending on the protocol and payload.The beginning part of the search for IP starts with the sed search /([0-9][0-9]*.[0-9][0-9]*)[ ]IP[ ,] ... /, where time is in seconds and ellipses means more stuff, and likewise for IP6 and ARP.But how do I process the lines that are NOT IP, IP6 or ARP? (Specifically NOT /IP[ ,]/, /IP6[ ,]/ or /ARP[ ,]/.) So that I can format them into a string with the same number of columns.

Is there a faster way to search for a file containing a given string than using grep -re "string" /
This takes a long time to search through the entire system, so I was wondering if there is a faster way. I don't know the name of the file, just that it will contain a given string.
Let me know unix commands to implement set operations on strings.

View 3 Replies View RelatedfakeFile's contents :
Code:
blah $(date +%F) blah
fakeScript's contents :
Code:
while read line; do
echo $line
done < "fakeFile"
so here's the problem : is there any way to evaluate the fakeFile's contents (in the fakeScript), so that the term "$(date +%F)" (or any other bash script) in a string , translates to it's corresponding value ? (in this example , we want to have "blah current date" instead of " blah $(bash script) blah " )
I would like to find all the files that contains the strings I'm searching.
For example (it's just an example), I would like to search all the files in "/etc" that contains "eth0" and "us", whatever where are located those 2 strings, the important is that the 2 strings are in the files listed.
It would be something like a "grep -lr 'eth0' *" and "grep -lr 'us' *" but in one time/command, so that I don't have to make a comparison of the 2 list of files resulting from the 2 "grep" commands given higher.
I have this piece of code with some template strings.
Code:
Big_L: $Big_L
$Big_R
$Lambda_tf
$Epsilon_1
$mu
$n_0
$ms
$Delta_R
$Epsilon_2
$Lambda_d
$Epsilon_3
$Small_N
$Small_Q
How can I insert exactly the same template strings in front of each string, but just without the '$' sign (see the first line for an example)?
Long story short, I got a folder with nearly 800,000 php files. I would like to search each file for a string and if it exists in that file, the file gets copied to another directory. Is this possible from the terminal? So far I got: grep -i -n -r 'ppr-1792' * | cp $1 move_to_here
But this obviously doesn't work. $1 needs to be the file name that contains matching text.
I've been surfing and searching the net quit a while now to make my own script, but I haven't been really successful ever since I want to make a script which can remove strings from my mp3 collection (file names).
For example:
Code:
101-bob_sinclar_feat_sean_paul-tik_tok_(radio_edit).mp3 --> bob_sinclar_feat_sean_paul-tik_tok_(radio_edit).mp3
10-Young Jeezy-Lose My Mind (78 Bpm) (Repack).mp3 --> young_jeezy-lose_my_mind.mp3
Now the problem is how can I remove the strings like:
101 & 10 (dynamic)
(%%% Bpm) (dynamic)
(Repack) (static)
In bash, I would like to remove all zeros (if exist) from the beginning of a strings:
000001234
00123
0000568
I have multiple strings (eg. say two, firstLIST=(0 1 2) and secondLIST=(2 3)) and want to create a single string composed of their unique sorted elements. For the sample strings above, I'd like to build masterLIST=(0 1 2 3).I suppose I could write the elements of firstLIST and secondLIST to files
Code:
echo ${firstLIST[@]} > firstFILE
echo ${secondLIST[@]} > secondFILE
then use
Code:
sort firstFILE secondFILE | uniq > masterFILE
as this gives me a file populated with the elements I'm after, but I'm not sure how to read the elements back into masterLIST... and it doesn't seem "right" to create files to accomplish this. Is there a way to do this by manipulating the strings ${firstLIST[@]} and ${secondLIST[@]} directly? The closest I've come (not close at all) is
Code:
masterLIST=${firstLIST[@]}" "${secondLIST[@]}
but masterLIST built this way has only one element
Code:
$echo ${masterLIST[@]}
0 1 2 2 3
$echo ${#masterLIST[@]}
1
and I don't have access to the individual digits to then try to figure out how to remove duplicates.
I'm trying to write a bash script to find all lines containing two different strings in many files. I don't have access to egrep so I want to use sed for this purpose.
The files will look like this:
FileX

Data:76
Contact:me@home.com
Start:1500
I want to generate a new file from these files with only the rows containing Data and Start. Something like this:
for y in `ls /file*.db`;
do sed '/Data|Start/p' $y > newfile
done
