General :: Vim Stuck In Insert Mode
Apr 11, 2010I've been using Vim for several months now via my web host (they allow putty access). All of a sudden, the escape key has become unresponsive. I cannot exist insert or any other mode by simply hitting escape. I have to hit F1 which brings up the help in vim and kicks me into command mode.
I'm most certain that my escape key on my keyboard is functioning fine since all of my windows shortcuts that use the escape key operate normally.
I know this is a ridiculous question and I'm certain there's a lot more to look into regarding a solution. What I really need is a solid lead as to where to start looking.
I'm using vim via putty I'm logging in using jailshell I'm not root

Jan 12, 2016When entering insert mode in a text file i want to edit while using rxvt-unicode, there is a p being inserted and a whole new line is entered as well. when i hit the insert key, vim enters insert mode but also types a p and forces whatever line i am on down a line. if num lock is not on, it will not enter insert mode by pressing the insert key but if i type using the keyboard and not the number pad, it still enters text. vim/mode keys work normally in xterm. is there some unusual configuration required in order to get vim to behave properly within rxvt-unicode?

Dec 1, 2010My linux workstation recently crashed. After rebooting, Linux (Red Hat 5.3) will not boot properly and automatically went into emergency mode or recovery mode i think. I can still see my /home/user/ and all the files inside.I boot from CD to rescue mode and tried mounting read-only the /dev/sd5 which contains the files in the crashed hard disk to try to copy out my files but mounting was unsuccessful (invalid argument). I checked the filesystem type using fsck -N /dev/sda5 and shows it to ext2. i tried to mount another known working hdd and was successful.
My question is why in emergency mode, the crashed hdd is able to be mounted automatically as read-only but cannot be done in rescue mode thru a bootable CD?Is there any special mount options used in emergency mode?I also cannot copy out in emergency mode booting from the crashed hard disk as everything is read only.
General :: Insert Column With Awk / Sed Between Two?
Jan 18, 2011I have a two column file and I need to create a new column in between the first and second but the new column adds a value to the first. E.g.code...
I thought I had figured out how to do it with the following but it just hangs:
awk -F '{print $0,$0+25,$1}' file_in > file_out
Also tried the following to no avail:
awk -F,-v OFS,'{print $0,$0+25,$1}' file_in > file_out
I can add the new column with the added value to the last column easy ( awk '{print $0,$0+25}' file_in > file_out).

General :: Insert A Folder Into A ZIP File?
Aug 11, 2011I'm a newbie on Linux and had to do something like this with the zip command:
My folder structure inside a zip file abc.zip is code...
It would move into abc.zip as folder3/textfile.txt (the hierarchy preserved)
Also used a -j switch (help said it junked the path info and it did but) - it would move only into abc.zip and sit at the same level as folder1 and folder2 instead of replacing the textfile.txt within abc.zip/folder1
My question is - I want to replace the abc.zip/folder1/textfile.txt with the one inside seconddir/folder3/textfile.txt.
How do I achieve this via the command line interface?

General :: Gedit Opens On All Workspaces?
May 17, 2010I'm using Fedora 10 with XFCE. Every time I open Gedit, it opens a instance on every workspace. The circle icon on my window border is selected (meaning, enabled on all workspaces). When I disable it to appear on one workspace, then close and restart(program), Gedit opens normal (current workspace). Question is: How to keep this current configuration? If I restart my system, and start up Gedit, it appears on all workspaces again.

Feb 4, 2011I use a linux machine at work and a mac at home. I can ssh from my machine at home to my work machine. But the only editor that I have access to on the command line then is vi, which I don't like.
Is there a way to use gedit on my mac to edit files remotely over an ssh connection?
This page says that it can be done, but I think that it assumes that you are using gedit on ubuntu. On my mac (os 10.5.8) I don't have the "bookmark" option when I click "connect to server".

General :: How To Launch Gedit From Firefox
Jun 29, 2010I'm trying to set up the Firefox extension 'Web Developer' to view the source of a webpage with gedit.
I've done this previously on Windows with notepad just by adding the command 'notepad %1' to the appropriate entry in 'Web Developer'.
In Firefox under Linux Mint 9, I tried replacing that command with 'gedit %U' but nothing happens. I can launch gedit from a terminal, but how do I get it to run from another application?

Aug 5, 2010I am trying to create a shell script where a user can specify a file with a list of logins and the script will create a batch file with specific information in specific columns.
Example:
loginfile.txt has
User1
User2
User3
I need the output to be as below:
1 User1 Date 12/31/9999
2 User2 Date 12/31/9999
3 User3 Date 12/31/9999
Where the columns are separated as below.
1[tab][tab]User1[tab]date +%D[tab]12/31/9999
2[tab][tab]User2[tab]date +%D[tab]12/31/9999
3[tab][tab]User3[tab]date +%D[tab]12/31/9999
I can use the nl utility to get the numbers easily enough, but I need two tab separations between the number and the user list. Is there a sed command that will insert at the beginning of each line? If so I can just run nl after I get some tabs up in the front.

View 5 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Insert Character Code Into Text Editor?
Aug 11, 2010I need a lightweight GUI text editor on my Ubuntu Lucid system which lets me specify a Unicode code point (e.g. U+1234), and inserts that character to a UTF-8 text document. I know that gedit can't do it (not even with the Character Map plugin).
I'm not interested in solutions involving any kind of emacs or vi. I'm also not interested in text editors running in the terminal (such as joe, which has this functionality). I need the absolute simplest, smallest and fastest plain text editor for Linux which lets me type a few letters, insert a few characters by their code, type some more letters, and then save the .txt file as UTF-8-encoded.
