General :: Using Sed To Remove Lines With Duplicate ID's?

I have a file that contains lines representing the nodes of a polyline but I only need the first point in each segment. With the following text:

0,"013A",0.57,260739.891,4379258.87
0,"013A",0.57,260737.674,4379258.94

General :: Advance Sed To Remove Multiple Lines

May 12, 2010

I have a txt file with couple of comment lines:
Number of title = !num!
#line1
#line2
#line3

I wrote a script with "sed" to replace !num! in this file, which is very straightforward. However, based on the !num!, I want to remove the number of "#" based on the !num! value. Is there an easy way to do that with "sed"; otherwise, i will have to write a script to loop through the file.

General :: Shortcut To Remove First Character Of Multiple Lines In Gedit

Jan 23, 2010

I want to be able to remove the first character of a line when I highlight multiple lines in gedit. Example:

%Example is
%Commented Code
%Uncomment using this shortcut

I would then highlight/select these lines, and remove the first character to make it look like this:

Example is
Commented Code
Uncomment using this shortcut

I'm pretty sure there is an actual shortcut for this. If there is another text editor on Linux that it would work in, it would be nice to know how to do it in that editor as well.

Programming :: Remove Specific Lines From File

Jan 21, 2011

I'm trying to come up with ideas for a simple way to strip a specific "entry" from a text file.I know tools like sed and perl can remove specific lines from a file but I haven't been able to come up with an elegant way to do my group of lines.In my file, the first "Location" line and the "SVNPath" line should be unique every time... but are they enough to strip out the whole set of the group plus the trailing one line of white space separating each group? Add to this, my file will grow as new entries are added (always appended to the end) but new entries will have the same formatting.

Contained within each of these 67 text files is about 1 million urls. Yes. I have 67 text files that contain 1 million lines of urls each. I am sure I am swimming in duplicates. I tried opening one text file and clicking sort ----->remove duplicates. Now Gedit is not responding my processor is maxed out to 100% and I think I am finally ready to delve into some command line code. Can anyone give me idiot proof instructions on how to sort the duplicates out of each one of these 67 text files? How about no duplicates across all 67?

Server :: Remove Dynamic String Across Multiple Lines And Files?

May 13, 2011

My server was hit with an injection script which has placed code across many of my clients files. I need a script that can remove a block of php code that spans multiple lines, multiple directories/files and is dynamic, meaning that part of the code changes. I think using find/sed is what I need but cannot seem to figure out how to get it to work.The following is the script that is being injected everywhere. The catch is that they have generated dynamic code at the start/end of the script. (I have commented the parts that are dynamically changing on EVERY instance).PLEASE NOTE: Directly following this script is the start of a valid php script that I do not want to delete.

<?php
//{{65281980 - DYNAMIC!!
GLOBAL $alreadyxxx;

General :: Delete All Lines Containing A String, Plus 4 Lines Below It?

Jan 26, 2010

I've come across an unusual requirement for a service in my Ubuntu system.Simply put, I need to find a way to search for all instances of a term in a file, delete lines containing containing that term, and delete four lines below each instance of that term. ither that, or copy the entirety of a file to a new file and skip over all lines containing the term plus four below it.This sounds kinda weird, I know. Without going too far into detail, I either have to change the logfile format for a server I'm running which is a huge pain in the butt, or I can just run a script to edit an HTML report generated from said logs. (Said report is really just for managers to peruse, and I like my log format, so I'm pursuing option 2.)
