I'm looking for a "one-click" way of taking ANY PDF and converting it to plain text. Ideally on OSX or Linux.
Ideally, the solution would include OCR functionality, but it need not necessarily.
The top priority is having something that can take ANY file WITHOUT configuration.
Here is a simple nautilus script to convert flv to mp3.
FLV2MP3
use
Code:
sudo chmod +x FLV2MP3.sh
sudo mv FLV2MP3.sh ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/
go to your flv file right click scripts and click FLV2MP3
Now the file upload feature is working, I have added the correctly indented php file as an attachment on post no: 3. The attached php script will create any missing smart channel files from the equivalent yum repo files. Any new smart channel files will be placed in a /new-smart-channels subdir of the yum repos directory.
Installation
Copy the attached php CLI script below to a new file, called create-smart-channels.php.
Change the permissions to something like:
# chown root:root create-smart-channels.php
# chmod 755 create-smart-channels.php
Then place the script in the directory that contains your yum repo files, usually /etc/yum.repos.d/
If you have set any open_basedir restrictions in /etc/php.ini, you will also need to add '/etc/smart/channels/:' to the search paths to allow create-smart-channels.php to read the contents of the /etc/smart/channels/ directory.
Warning:
Do not allow php access to the whole of the /etc directory. This could be a security issue. Whatever access restrictions are set with open_basedir (if any), you should override these in your httpd.conf file, to restrict apache's php module to only allow access to php files under your apache's document root. To do this, use something like this in your httpd.conf file:
<Directory />
Options None
AllowOverride None
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all
# these are the only directories which the apache PHP module can
# have access to. This setting overrides the settings in the
# global php.ini file, which applies to the CLI version of PHP .....

may be an advanced question but I need to know how to do this. Here at work I am in charge of recruiting and we have about 1,000 resumes in already. All of the resumes are in a .pdf format. I need to rename every .pdf in the following format:{firstnameLastname}.pdfThe only way I know how to do this is to convert all the .pdf files to text, extract the name out of the first few lines of text, import into excel, and then use VBA to rename the files in mass:Here is my logic so far:~Deskop/a = houses all the .pdfresumesOpen terminal: Code: cd ~/Desktop/afor f in *.pdf; do pdftotext -raw $f; done That will convert all of the preceding resumes into text filesNow I would like to append the name of the text file into the last line of the text file. So, for example, for Resume1.txt, I want to append "Resume1.txt" to the last line within Resume1.txt. So after I run the command I open Resume1.txt and on the last line within I want to see "Resume1.txt" on the last line, at the end of the resume.How can I do this? I would like to use a loop and have the terminal append the filename to the body of the text file until all of the have been appended.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI was trying to install GTK+-2.8.20, so I installed it's necessary dependencies in this order:
pkg-config-0.23
glib-2.20.4
pango-1.24.4
jpeg library
tiff library
cairo
And I was about to install the last dependency: ATK (Accessability Toolkit).I opened the Archive Manager to extract the "atk-1.26.0.tar.gz" file (yes, I'm still switching from Windows so I'm fond of GUI), but I noticed all the text in that window was boxes, like the □ type box for every letter of text.So instead I thought it wouldn't be a big deal, because the terminal and regular windows weren't screwed up.I opened a text file in gedit (reference to commands in terminal, such as how to extract files via terminal), but yet again all of the text was □-like boxes.
Currently, when I'm searching text in files of my PHP project, I use this line :
Code:
grep -r 'myTextToFind' *
But now, I would like to search only in ".lang" files. How can I do that ?
EDIT1: I should note that I was trying to do this in PERL, not sure if other alternatives are more simple?EDIT2: I should note that for text file 3 (reference), it's a long list of MANY cnp_id values and their corresponoding chr, start, and end values. So, the code will have to take the cnp_id from text file 1 and/or 2 and search through textfile 3 (reference) to match on the cnp_id and then take the corresponding chr, start, and end values and add to the relevant line in the output.EDIT3: Sorry, I should mention that the text file entries are all tab-delimited.I have 3 text files:File 1:Columns represent sample IDs (sample_id) and rows represent CNP IDs (cnp_id). Cells represents the confidence level (confidence) for each sample and CNP.Quote:

How could I replace text in one file with text from another file using sed?
The text in each of the files would be surrounded by a starting and ending delimiter or a starting tag, say like /* */ so to easily find them.
I want a tool / library / package in C/C++/Python for basically Text to Speech - Speech to Text in Linux.I've tried pyttsx in python , but it runs only in windows as expected, in Linux (openSUSE 11.2 , the script just hangs up )festival in C. - in Ubuntu - Could not configured it successfully.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI put a text file on my desktop and added a couple lines of text with gedit. File type shows text/plain. Double-click opens the file in gedit which is what I want. I'm using the file to temporarily hold some snips of code that I copy from file to file, but when I copy some html into the file and save it, now file properties show it's text/html and a double-click opens the file in firefox, which isn't what I want. Is there some way to keep the file type from changing itself?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have to delete a certain line of text from the a textfile via ubuntu's shell scripting.I have done research, and it seems that most people advocate the usage of sed /d option. sed makes does not edit the text file. Hence, most options I discovered involved the use of a temporary variable/textfile and then overwriting the old file with the temporary new file. Is there anyway whereby I can bypass the use of temporary storage containers? I hope there is any magical combination of commands to edit the file directly.

I want to display the contents of a particular log file (simple text file, I mean in Linux). But there is a problem: The contents need to be organized in a fixed format. Have a look at this log file:
sampleLog.txt
Code:

Reported Problems Description: Blah! Blah! Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah!

So, while displaying the contents of above file on a web page, I want to format the field names found in the log file: User Name:, Reported Problems Description:, and Remarks:. These fields may contain a variable length of text and no specific line number is assumed for them to appear on.
The desired output should look like this:
User Name: XYZ
Reported Problems Description: Blah! Blah! Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah! Blah!Blah!

The new feature in Gimp 2.7 that attaches basic text formatting options (bold, italicunderline, strike-through) to the active text box is either buggy or just bad design.The text edit buttons are actually being placed on top of the text box (which contains text) instead of off to the side, and that is causing me to not be able to see the text.See screenshot for example:GIMP version: 2.7.1Am I doing something wrong or are others experiencing this too?
