I need to grep for a particular string and if found need to display the line containing that string, the line above that and also the first line of that paragraph.
Can this be done via sed.
Eg, My Paragraphs
OA connectA
Enclosure:
Interconnect Module #6 Status:
Here, if I grep for Critical, it should display the following
Similarly if I grep for Degraded, it should display
I have a dataset (see example below) that I would like to go through and copy all lines containing a certain string ("LGIG") plus the line immediately following that line to a new file. I have no problem grepping lines containing the string LGIG but I'm lost how to translate that to line number and shift up one line number for each instance of that string.
I have a very large data file, with 3 numbers in each line, ex. 3 4 5 ; 6 7 8.I want to add two numbers (0 and 1) at the end of every line, and a string at the beginning of the line. Does anyone know a efficient way to do so?
At the moment I have a flat file which is being used by a few people. I want a script to remotely change the file, so I can start logging who is doing what.At this point here is one requirement I am trying to develop. We have text blocks who pretty much look like.I hope this is somewhat clear. I try to find $param for the right $workflow and change that. Can you help me to find $$var3 and change that?
I want to print the line number with the pattern of the line on a same line using multi-patterns in sed. But i don't know how to do it. For example, I have a file
I have a perl/python interpreter available on the system so really as long as the script would run on a standard linux build I'll be happy.So I don't know how to program a script that would find the unique key (which if needed, can be easily stripped out and put into a separate file) and then print out the data below it without going into the other lines.
I have a project due for my Intro to C++ class and we are suppose to generate a file listing that will take an input of a C++ source code with .cpp extension and make a copy of it with a .lst extention that will have a line number preceding each and every line.
I've been trying to understand pthread in C a little better. So I made a simple program that takes in a string from the command line and creates a thread to print the string. I've looked online and copied the basic concepts but there are something things I'm confused about. The programs works just fine, but I have questions. Here's what I have so far.
[Code]....
One thing I'd like to know is why the 3rd argument in the pthread_create function which is my SendMessage function needs to be typecasted to a void pointer and then send the address of the function. Also as for the 4th argument, I would see typecasting to void pointer in some of the pthread examples I saw online, but in my case I'm passing a char pointer, would this be correct? In which case would I ever want to pass a void pointer?
Do I need a pthread_exit(NULL) in my main and in the SendMessage function? If so, why? I added the sleep() function so that I could let the pthread_exit function in my SendMessage function execute first. I simply saw that the online examples on pthread had pthread_exit() in both locations.
I would like to make a shell script that will do the following :- have a web-page using curl- download a picture from the web-page- have a line in the source code of the web page - catch a string (a link patch) from the line- go to another page of the website from the result of the previous step- repeat all this until there is no match for step 3I know how to :- have the web-page source code using curl (simple, we just have to make "curl- download the picture (as simple as the first step)- have a line in the source code (grep is made for that, isn't it ?)- go to another website from the result of the previous step (it's the same as the first step)But I really don't know how I can do the fourth step of my script.
In facts, I don't know regular expressions and even the shell command that can help me to do this.To be more clear, I would like to store in a variable the string represented by the star (*) in this : <a href="*">Next ></a>
i have a file with a lot of lines in it, and iould like to grab just the line that contains a string i've specified in a variable... Let me know if you want a sample of the file.
I need to simply replace a 2 lines, or one and I'll run each command separately, in a eps file. I know I can grep the line and pipe that into the sed but I would like to keep this in a sed command. I can use sed /s and get it if I copy the section out of the file and paste it. Really just trying to rewrite the boundingbox coord's in eps files.
I'm trying to use sed to search for a certain 'primary' pattern that may exist on several lines, with each primary pattern followed by an --unknown-- number of 'secondary' patterns.The lines containing the pattern start with: test(header_name)On that same line is an arbitrary number of strings that come after it.I want to move those strings over to their own lines so that they each are preceded by their own test(header_name).e.g. Original file (mytest.txt):
apples test("Type1", "hat", "cat", "dog", "house"); bananas
I am using Vi editor for editing and configuring my file.I am facing a little problem when there is long file like 3000 lines. Normally i use
Code:
:set number
in vi editor to visible my line number.The problem is when i have to go in the top of the file like say line number one I use k for it and to move down I use j which is too much time consuming. How can i jump directly my cursor to line number 2333 or line number 2600.
I have large text files with space delimited strings (2-5). The strings can contain "'" or "-". I'd like to replace say the second space with a pipe. What's the best way to go? Using sed I was thinking of this:
I want to know the Perl command to replace a string by pointing the line number. I know how to replace a string without pointing a line number but I am in need to replace only the two matching string in a file
I am doing molecular dynamics where I have to edit files. I have looked at tutorials for grep and sed but can't find my solution. The files produced in my simulations look something like this:
ATOM 1825 NE2 GLN 112 113.646 27.895 14.456 ATOM 1826 HE21 GLN 112 114.020 26.957 14.490 ATOM 1827 HE22 GLN 112 112.649 28.039 14.388
anyway i need to take the average of all rows with the same 1st number(key). i.e.
1, 3, 4.66, 5.66, 5 2, 3.5, 4.5, 5, 3.5
I know this is something awk/sed would be great for, i just dont have enough experience with them to accomplish it, Also, what about averaging those columns together? so, after I output this to a file, id like to get another like:
1, 4.58 1, 4.125
The number of colums to add might not always be 4 either. EDIT: this might be easier to do in gnuplot, so I mainly just need an answer to the first part.
I'm not that familiar with sed and awk in order to be able to solve this problem on my own, so I'm calling on you for a bit of assistance. I'm writing a Nagios plugin to check our Oracle tablespaces and the output is given in one line like this: 1.04007771 TEMP 0 UNDOTBS1 .005340579 USERS 0 7 rows selected. I've been playing around with sed like below to delete the obsolete info and change every second space into a newline:
[code]...
how many tablespaces there are so I'd have to check all databases and 'hardcode' the tablespaces in my script. Is there any way to 'automate' this knowing that 'rows selected' preceded by a number is always the last line and using a sort of counter to auto-adjust the number to put in the -e 's/ / /2' part?
I want to write a bash script to run a command and get the last line of the output of that command. For example, the output of "cat /proc/zoneinfo" is:
Code: Node 0, zone DMA pages free 3948 min 2 low 2
[Code]....
How can I get the last line in a separated format?
I have two files, file1.traj and file2.traj. Both these files contain identical data and the data are arranged in same format in them. The first line of both files is a comment.
At line 7843 of both files there is a cartesian coordinate X, Y and Z ( three digits ). And at line 15685 there is another three digits. The number of lines in between two cartesian coordinates are 7841. And there are few hundreds of thousands of lines in a file.
What I need to do is copy the X Y Z coordinate (three digits) from file1.traj at line 7843 and paste into file2.traj at the same line number as in file1.traj. The next line will be 15685 from file1.traj and replace at line 15685 at file2.traj. And I dont want other lines (data) in file2.traj get altered. This sequence shall be going on until the end of the file. Means copy and substitude the selected lines from file1.traj into file2.traj.
I tried to use paste command but I cant do for specified line alone.
Here i showed the data format in the file. I used the line number for clarity purpose.
I want to access a file, and check the length of every line.After, i want to check and replace all lines with length over 10 characters, with a message.Does anyone have a clue on that?
