Ubuntu :: Find Last Modified File In Current Directory And All Subdirectories?
May 28, 2010I need to write a script that is given a directory as an argument, and it prints the last modified file from that directory and all its subdirectories.
for example:
$ newest /usr/etc
--> /usr/etc/httpd/httpd May 28 12:16
If I had to do it only for the current dir, it would be easy...I'd probably use "ls -lt" and then show only the first line...
General :: Using Thunar File Manager To Find Wine C: Drive Installation?
Apr 12, 2010I come from windows!!! For the life of me, I can't find the (Wine) install environment with the Thunar file manager. For some reason, after i installed wine it doesn't have a link that takes me to the C: drive that Thunar used to open so I could access what I installed thats only compatible with windows, such as World Of Warcraft. I'm bound and determined there has got to be another way to find it!

Jul 13, 2011I'm quite new to linux but I have configured a simple ftp server and it's working great. I have a FTP-Shared folder with upload and download subfolders. Under upload's and download's I have identical category subfolders like mp3's, movies, software etc. in both. As the guy's upload, I would like to create a line crontab where I can move all the content under /FTP-Shared/upload/mp3/* older than 14 day's to FTP-Shared/downloads/mp3/ recursively (Like in cp command), but the timestamp must be searched on the first directory and not sub files example: /mp3/Club Dance/CD1/Hallo world.mp3This is how far I got:[root@clients ~]# /usr/bin/find /FTP_Shared/upload/Mp3s/ -depth -mindepth 1 -mtime +14 -type d -exec mv -f {} /FTP_Shared/download/Mp3s/ ;This command moves the directory and files, but it is not recursively

General :: Web Searches Cannot Locate Way Of Specifying 'each File In Current Directory'
Mar 23, 2011I have several directories of subtitles for some videos, but all the text for the subtitles in each file is in uppercase, and I would like to convert the files' content to lowercase, all in one go. I found on a website a bash command that would do each file separately:tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]' <input.txt> output.txt but of course involves specifying the input name and output name for each file.I have been trying to do it in a script that would work for all files in the current directory, without having to rename them each time, if that's possible. So far I've got the following, which doesn't work:
#!/bin/bash
for file in $@; do
tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]'
done
However, my web searches cannot locate a way of specifying "each file in current directory" in conjunction with the "tr" command, but also without having to rename the file once converted to lowercase. Is it possible, or would the tr command have to create a new file for each converted file?

General :: Create A File In The Current Directory Named '5' With The Number '2'?
Aug 24, 2010Code:
$ echo 2 * 3 > 5 is a valid inequality. This will create a file in the current directory named '5' with the number '2' in it, the names of all the files in the current directory, followed by the number '3' and 'is a valid inequality.'
What I do not understand is why 'is a valid inequality' gets written to this file. I thought it would write '2', all the file names in the current directory, then '3' into the file called '5'. Why does the 'is a valid inequality.' get written to the file also?

General :: How Is The "Current Working Directory Maintined"
May 25, 2010I was wondering how the current working directory is maintained in linux. I assumed it would simply be an environment variable, but all attempts i've made to change directory by resetting variables shown by env have failed.Is this something that is maintained internally in the command prompt (bash in my case)?The background to this is I'm setting up a script to remotely run commands over ssh. Since separate commands will unfortunately require separate SSH connections, I need to maintain (save and reload) items such as environment variables and current working directory from one call of the script to the next.
