I understand the tilde (~) at the end of a file displayed in bash is a backup file in the Linux file system. Is there a way to keep these hidden when listing the contents of a directory?

I use amarok 2 and I have a lot of files that are titled "Track #.mp3", in Amarok I have changed them to see as the real songs but the actual files are still the same. Is there a way to change the actual file names using amarok to match the tags I have inside of amarok? The reason why I'd want to do this:
1. If my home folder becomes corrupt I don't have to redo 100's of songs (I have a backup but none the less
2. If I ever decide to use another program or if I'm in W7 using Windows Media Player classic it'd be nice to have it recognize the correct files without having to double up on the tag editing
If this isn't possible I'm going to wishlist it because I think it's functional and having a bunch of Track# files is a pain but impossible to get around when you have a lot of mix cd's.

I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 11 and a few days later my ecryptfs filesystem began misbehaving in a weird way. In my home directory, many subdirectory names are duplicated verbatim. Here's an ls -F excerpt:
Desktop/
Desktop/
Documents/
Documents/
Downloads/
Downloads/
I can no longer access files in those directories (if I ls the directory, it appears empty; I can cd to it, but there's nothing inside). Not all of the directories are duplicated/damaged like this, but most are. A few non-directory files are also duplicated in this fashion, so for example:

I recently installed the F12, but it cannot correctly show the Chinese file and directory names on a Windows partition with a fat32 file system. What shall I do?
The disk partition is mounted as
Code:
UUID=471D-E212 /mnt/d vfat umask=0022,uid=xxx,gid=xxx 0 0
in the /etc/fstab.

I've been looking high and low for a utility program or perl script or something that can take a linux directory structure as input and convert it to MS-DOS 8.3 directory structure.
The purpose of this is to conform to the path format that is expected on my rather old Creative Zen Neeon MP3 player for m3u play lists.

I am trying to copy a large number of files from a Linux server to a Windows file share. Unfortunately, all of the files and folders I have to copy have 10 numbers followed by 2 colons "::" in the name (example: 1234567890::WordDoc.doc) which of course is invalid in windows naming conventions. So now I'm trying to come up with a way to change the file and folder names on the fly to replace the colons with a dash "-" or space " ". I'm even willing delete the frist 12 characters in necessary. I have tried cp, mv, tr, and several -bash scripts but get no positive results.

I have a samba share that was previously hosted by and accessed by Windows operating systems. As a result the filenames of all the files are not very command-line/linux friendly. I need to get a script or app that can go through the samba share recursively and change all file names to lowercase and replace spaces in the names with a ".", "_" or something.

I am in the process of setting up an Asterisk server with Broadvoice services. I am having issues with making outbound calls and Broadvoice suggests I modify the /etc/hosts file in order to add their proxy server IP address and name. I login to my server as root and get the following command line header
[root@root tmp]#
I entered cd thinking this is what I need to change directory but fails. What is the command I need to enter in order to get to the /etc/host file so I can change it? How do I confirm an /etc/host file even exists?

I'd like to instruct bash to use a special method to perform completion on certain directory names. For example, bash would call a program of mine to perform completion if a path starts with "$$", and perform completion normally otherwise. Is this at all possible? How would you implement it? The goal is to allow autojump to complete paths for all commands when the user starts them with a certain prefix. So for example when copying a file from a far directory, you could type: cp $$patern + <Tab>
and autojump would complete cp /home/user/CompliCatedDireCTOry/long/path/bla/bla and you would just have to add where you want to put the file. Of course I can use ott's comment to add it to a few specific commands

I am setting up an nfs failover node. The NFS servers share out mounts to a SAN. My problem is this: the master node has
emcpowera as the 100 gig partition
emcpowerb as the 200 gig partition
emcpowerc as the 300 gig partition
and the failover node has
emcpowerc as the 100 gig partition
emcpowerb as the 200 gig partition
emcpowera as the 300 gig partition
This is no problem until the failover node takes over the duties of nfs. The nfs clients that were connected to the share that map to emcpowerc on the master now for some reason map to emcpowera. I had a look and see that powermt is responsible for the pseudo naming of the devices. How do I change the pseudo names for the SAN on the failover node to match the emcpower# (a,b,c) on the Primary node?

When I run "ls -al somedir*" (I use the "ll" shortcut, actually), Linux not only list files that match, but also the contents of directories whose name also happens to match.Is there a way to limit "ls" so that it will only show names (files and directories) and ignore the contents of the directories?

I am supposed to take some small files, and print them to a specific printer, such that the small files are concatenated into one file. The file name has to be included in the file that gets printed.
Should I be looking to concatenate the files into one file with the file names included, and then print them?
something like: -printfunction -printername < file*

I have a considerable number of files in a subdirectory (some fascinating old military clips from archive.org - search on Big Picture if interested). Anyhow, I am downloading them using Internet Download Manager running in an XP virtual machine in VMWare on my Ubuntu 10.04 PC (due to the queuing, restart and speed capabilities of IDM). But I digress - the files are being saved on the host (Samba share) without a file extension. So I have a collection of files with names like
Quote:
The Douglas MacArthur Story
THEY WERE THERE (1960)
I wish to add the extension ".mp4" In Windows this is simply done with the command
Quote:
rename *. *.mp4
This of course does not work in Linux. I have researched the Linux rename command and reviewed a lot of examples. However, I have not found a way to add an extension to a batch of files which are named with no extension to start with. The spaces in the file names also seem to present an issue. At the moment I am renaming them from the Windows VM while they are sitting on the Samba share using the ancient File Manager program from Windows NT which works great on XP. I have experimented with the file rename facility in Gnome Commander however, it does not seem to want to do something so simple.

I use the command line frequently to navigate my files so I try not to have spaces in file names. Typically I have used an underscore to connect words but it was recently suggested that I should use a dash. Are there any disadvantages to using an underscore in file names?Should I switch to a dash? My system is running Xubuntu and I almost exclusively use the bash shell.

I am running gentoo openbox(rox file manager and desktop) I installed Digikam and Amarok. But I have problems with files which include special character in their names(such as �,�, �,ğ... ) The files are shown with strange and weird characters in the file dialogs of Digikam and Amarok.
I don't have this problem in other applications. I can create files with special character included. I think some settings do not agree with KDE4. How can I solve this problem? Does anyone have an idea? I also installed KDE systemsettings program but could not find a relevant config option for character encoding.

So I have created a Bash script with the intent of the program to change the names of the files in a folder's subdirectory.The code recognises the individual subdirectories, then is able to enter into one and list the files individually, but when it tries to change their information it says;' cannot stat ' : ' No such file or directory 'As if it is looking in the directory that contains the Bash script, not its subdirectory.It is essentially saying, I see a file here called FILE but sorry, I can't change FILE because FILE doesn't exist. kweh?Is this something outside the capabilities of Bash? Am I asking too much of it? Can Bash only manipulate files that are in the same folder as the script?
Code:
#!/bin/bash
echo enter directory
