General :: Removing Specific Field Seperator To Combine Two Fields?
Dec 2, 2010
I am trying to remove the space between the 2nd and 3rd fields but just cannot work out how to do it. I've considered sed, cut, awk...I know with sed you can replace all instances within a file but can you also specify to remove, say, the 2nd instance of a space in each line (this would be perfect for me)?

I have a couple of MP3s that have duplicate fields in their ID3 tags. Let me show you what I mean: This is causing problems with some media players. Is there a tool that can automatically fix these MP3s in batch? I'd prefer a free Windows or Linux program. I'm not afraid to work on the command line if necessary.

I have a file containing text. I want to replicate a specific field.For example, I might want to append a copy of the second word of each line to the end of that line.Have: Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary,Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore, Want: Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary, upon Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore, many Is there a Linux command which will do this? I seek a basic command, not awk, not Perl, because I haven't learned those things yet.

I've had a very colorful morning learning the innerparts of Linux's sort command, and have come across yet another issue that I can't seem to find an answer for in the documentation. I'm currently using -t, to indicate that my fields are split by the comma character, but I'm finding that in some of my files, the comma is used (between double-quotes) within values:
Jonathan Sampson,,foo@bar.com,0987654321
"Foobar CEO,","CEO,",ceo@foobar.com,,
How can I use a comma to terminate my fields, but ignore the occurences of it within values? Is this fairly simple, or do I need to re-export all of my data using a more-foreign field-terminator? (Unfortunately, I do not have any control over declaring a different terminator with this particular project).

I'm new to the shell scripting. can any one help in creating shell script for matching the content of the specific variable with file. it should remove that line from the file if line is containing same value as variable and keep the other content as it is.i used grep -v for accomplishing the same. But grep will remove the pattern which is similar.For eg. Assume file "test" contain datas :aaffif i used grep -v command for the pattern "a" to this file this will remove content "aa" from the file. I want the pattern only "a" should remove from the file, if it is existing. otherwise it should throw alert content not exists.

I'm trying to display fields from flat files where the first 8 fields are always the same. Fields 9 - n are varied but will contain specific patterns I'm after. I'm using this so far because "mySearch" is on each line I want to examine.
Code:
How would you pattern match and include 2 additional fields above field $9 but change field position from line to line?

I am creating a game with random variables. In the game I have created a dialogue exchange to players. I have set up a table with various returns and I inserted {$fields} to represent various random variables. When I call on the requested fields, I only see the field text and my field names. Am I supposed to parse something and call it back another way?
ie: myfield is: "You have won {$random1} silver! <br />{$wi['gender'] majesty rewards you well." the code I am using to call that field is:

I'm trying to use awk to remove rows that are duplicates based on 3 fields, and I want to keep the on that has the higher value in another field. I'm working in C-Shell. For example the below is greped out of a larger data set to use in here as example:
Input (Field separator is a comma:
Code:
4180,-6999,MA,BARNSTABLE,BOURNE,1,1.7,1700,PM,1/26
4180,-6999,MA,BARNSTABLE,BOURNE,1,3.5,2025,PM,1/26
4180,-6999,MA,BARNSTABLE,BOURNE,1,1.0,1511,PM,1/26

I'm writing a script that picks out the time offset in a string, but am trying to figure out a way to print a field based on a match (likely needs to be regex).
Here are some sample fields:
09.900. Either add -12:-1: 0 to existing offset, or restart the slicer with no offset or with offset=00
09.900. Either add -12:-1:30 to existing offset, or restart the slicer with no offset or with offset=00
09.900. Either add -10: 0:-47 to existing offset, or restart the slicer with no offset or with offset=00
What I need would be "-12:-1: 0" from the first line, for example. I was just using "awk '{print $4}'" originally but because of the damn space in the 1st and 3rd lines by the 0, that doesn't work for me. How to grab those fields correctly for all cases?

I'm looking for a way to dynamically modify a fied in the SQL file.
Example,
INSERT INTO `TABLE` VALUES(1AADFDF,DFF33D,10023,SOMEDATA, SOMEDATA);
INSERT INTO `TABLE` VALUES(1AADFDF,DFF33D,10098,SOMEDATA, SOMEDATA);
[code]....
The third field in this SQL file is what needs to change to n+1
"10023" needs to change to "1"
"10098" needs to change to "2"
"10123" needs to change to "3"
"10983" needs to change to "4"
etc...
I tried with awk and sed, but since both require the usage of ' (single quote), my variable fails to get updated. I know i can use cut and recreate the sql statememnt, but i believe there should be easier way using sed or awk. Would anyone know of any creative way to get this to work in one-liner? This needs to be a part of the script preferable without making call to external file.

The input file consists of several fields. The first field is always five or more characters long. I want to keep the last five characters of the first field.
Example:
If the input file record is FEDERAL PACIFIC ELECTRIC PRODUCTS then I want to keep DERAL I can do this in four steps by using C, REV, C, and REV again but that seems like doing an easy thing the hard way. Is there a straightforward way to achieve this result with C or some other command?

I am using a cluster of machines running on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS which are supposed to be homogeneous, but apparently they are not. In particular, I am configuring the X server on these machines.The problem is that the BusID of the graphic card is PCI:5:0:0 for some machines, and PCI:3:0:0 for others. Is there a way that the X server automatically detects the appropriate Device (based on the name for instance)?
