General :: Insert A Folder Into A ZIP File?
Aug 11, 2011
I'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?

I'm looking for a way to insert the number of lines in a file to the start of the aformentioned file. This should be simple but as I am not used to scripts in Linux, I am finding it tough going. I can find the number of lines in a file easily enough via
filesize=$(awk 'END {print NR}' $1)
but as for inserting this into the first line, i'm failing to do so. I've tried some of the other approaches on these forums but none so far have been able to do so.
I've tried:
sed '1i$filesize' $1
but sed i requires a string, not a variable so no go I've also tried:
mv "$1" "${1}.bak" 2>/dev/null || touch "${1}.bak"
cat $filesize "${1}.bak" >"$1"
but again with no luck as cat seems to need an input stream Just to recap, i want to insert a line at the start of a given file that holds the number of lines the original file has.
ie the file:
a
b
c
d
e
should become:
5
a
b
c
[code].....

I 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.

I would like to store JPG files in a mysql database table. I figured that using BLOB fields on the one hand and the 'load_file' command on the other would do the trick. Here is how I set up the table:
mysql> create table blobtable (id int(10) not null auto_increment,
fileName varchar(15) not null,
file longblob not null, primary key(id) );
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.51 sec)
Then I tried to enter the data:
mysql> insert into blobtable(filename,file)values('pic',load_file('/var/www/temp/IMGP4764.JPG'));
Which got me the following error signal:
ERROR 1048 (23000): Column 'file' cannot be null
It seems to me that the file path to the JPG file (although correct) is the source of the problem, and is causing the load_file command not to work. My first attempt was with the JPG file in my PC's home directory. When that returned the same error message, I figured that maybe the file had to be in the PC's (server's) web area so I put it under the 'www' directory.

When I copy and paste something from a web site, links to pictures are inserted, not actual pictures.
When I disconnect from the Internet, I cannot see pictures which is annoying.
Do you know how to make LibreOffice copy and paste actual pictures into a Writer document?

I have multiple HTML files in a folder. there is a <h2> tag like this:
Code:
<h2>some text</h2>
in each file. I want to write a shell script/batch file to add this tag in <head> section of each file:
Code:
<!-- TITLE= "same text from h2 tag" -->
Note that <h2>some text</h2> in some files has 1 or more linebreaks and so I couldn't capture tag content using a simple grep or...
for example:
<h2>first part of text
second line of text</h2>
The line break shouldn't be shown in <!-- TITLE= "same text from h2 tag" -->. The script has to capture tag content & skip line breaks.

As indicated in the subject, I want to search a text. If the text is present I want to replace it. But if the text is not present, I want to insert it after first line and before last line.
Searched text is:CleanCache "*";
Where * can be anything.
Example: CleanCache "false"; -> CleanCache "true";
If CleanCache "false"; is not present, only insert CleanCache "true"; after first line and before last line.

After upgrading to 11.04, I noticed something strange, being that when I want to drag a file or folder from one Nautilus folder window to another which is not visible, I can no longer hold the item over said folder's taskbar button and wait for it to appear. It just shows the + for copy, and when I let go (which I have no choice but to eventually do), it creates a launcher to that item (I assume it's doing that, and not actually copying there, but the + has me unsure).
I've looked in Nautilus's preferences to see if this is some new behaviour that I can revert back to, but could find nothing there.
I'm of course using the Classic desktop with bottom panel being the taskbar. If you know how I can rectify this, please let me know, as the times I would want to create a file or folder launcher without the usual hassle would be rare, but I am constantly dragging stuff from one folder to another, and it would be a real pain to have to line up source and destination folders each time.

1. I need guide on how to create a folder name from the text file with .txt format.
2. First, I call the function of reading the directory.
3. Then, I dont know how to do.
4. Finally, I close the directory
This is my source code in perl
## read text.txt file ##
open F, "from/$directory/text.txt";
read F, $buf, 9999;
close F;[/size]
This source code is used to print the folder with date format like "ddmm" d stands for day and m stands for month
if ($command =~ s/-O "(.*)"/-O "$websites/$month/$file"/)
Instead, I want to have the name from text.txt to be folder name
