General :: Searching Content Of The File Using File Browser Nautilus?

May 27, 2011

I'm using rhel6. Using File Browser Nautilus 2.28.4 I could easily locate any file I'm interested in by it name. I'd like to use this File Browser to locate the file name based on it content e.g. based on some word in the text file. It doesn't work for me that way ... My question: does Nautilus support the search of file based on it content or only based on the name of the file itself?

Ubuntu :: More Advanced File Browser Than Nautilus?

Jun 12, 2010

Is there an alternative to Nautilus file browser? I mean a file browser which offers out of-the-box (!) more features and where I don't have to install such add-ons like nautilus-actions separately and defined some commands which should obviously be built-in.

Debian :: Nautilus File Browser - Open Folder By Using The Shift And F4 Keys

I'd like to be able to accomplish the same in gnome with the nautilus file browser but can't figure out how to do same. So far I have to open a terminal and then cd to the desired folder. Or do I have to use some other file browser and which one?

General :: Searching For Number Within A File?

Nov 9, 2010

I'm currently trying to design a small, simple enough shell program for area codes. I have a list of area codes in a database, and I am trying to write a program that will have a user input an area code, and then have the program print out information that immediately follows that area code in my database. I assume I need to use a find or locate command, but I'm not sure if I should be searching for a string or the number itself. The number could possibly occur at some other point in the file, though the way I have the file set up it only occurs once at the newline.

what function I should use and how I should go about it? As is I only have the absolute bare-bones beginning of having an echo for the prompt to input an area-code, and the read once it's input. Without the find I'm not sure how much farther I can get. Also, would it make it easier if I added some character such as a ! to the end of the number at the newline to make it easier to search for? With a macro that would be easy enough to do.

Programming :: Sed - Save Output To File With Filename From Content Of Another File?

Feb 28, 2011

My employer issues pdf files with everyones work schedules. I copy the content and save it as plain text in a file called unformatted (hope to be able to automate this step someday). Im working on a SED script that reduces unformatted to only display what I want to see and saves the result in a file Iïve named formatted. After that I have to manually copy formatted and save it with that days date as a filename e.g. 2011-02-25 or whatever day is scheduled in the pdf, for use on a mobile device (Nokia N900). I noticed that the date occurs on certain lines in the file so I added a line like:

sed -n 's/^Date: (201[1-9])/([0-1][0-9])/([0-3][0-9]).*/1-2-3/p' < unformatted >theDate
That creates a file theDate with the date in it that I wish to use as the filename for this particular instance. So I would like to skip the file formatted all together and have the sed- script write to a new file using the content of the Date as a filename, but how do I make that happen? And of course it would be more elegant if I could skip the intermediate theDate file as well.

General :: Filter Find And Du By Content Of Inner File In Subdirectory?

May 30, 2010

I have the following command that I run on cygwin:

find /cygdrive/d/tmp/* -maxdepth 0 -mtime -150 -type d | xargs du --max-depth=0 > foldersizesreport.csv

I intended to do the following with this command: for each folder under /d/tmp/ that was modified in last 150 days, check its total size including files within it and report it to file foldersizesreport.csv however that is now not good enough for me, as it turns out inside each

/d/tmp/subfolder1/somefile.properties
/d/tmp/subfolder2/somefile.properties
/d/tmp/subfolder3/somefile.properties
/d/tmp/subfolder4/somefile.properties

so as you see inside each subfolderX there is a file named somefile.properties inside it there is a property SOMEPROPKEY=3808612800100 (among other properties) this is the time in millisecond, i need to change the command so that instead of -mtime -150 it will include in the whole calculation only subfolderX that has a file inside them somefile.properties where the SOMEPROPKEY=3808612800100 is the time in millisecond in future, if the value SOMEPROPKEY=23948948 is in past then dont at all include the folderin the foldersizesreport.csv because its not relevant to me.so the result report should be looking like:

/d/tmp/,subfolder1,<itssizein KB>
/d/tmp/,subfolder2,<itssizein KB>

and if subfolder3 had a SOMEPROPKEY=34243234 (time in ms in past) then it would not be in that csv file.so basically I'm looking for:

find /cygdrive/d/tmp/* -maxdepth 0 -mtime -150 -type d | <only subfolders that have in them property in file SOMEPROPKEY=28374874827 - time in ms in future and not in past | xargs du --max-depth=0 > foldersizesreport.csv

General :: Reboot Not Required After Changing HOSTS File Content?

I assume Linux has no exception(s), but is there any reason why a reboot is not required (to at least justify my actions)?
