My folder have some files and I want to show the number of files on folder at "Total file on folder: " Ex: Monday folder have six files and it will show "Total file on folder : 6" when I run a script. This is my code :
#!/bin/sh
if [ -d /home/kenzo/Monday/ ] && {
echo "Monday"
ls -l /home/kenzo/Monday/

Link to earlier question: Get folder with largest number at the end of the name in Linux. I have some folders r1, r2, r3, etc. and I want to get the name of the folder with the largest number at the end. How do I get the name? The ls -v solution looks promising, but I want to exclude all folders that don't follow the pattern r[0-9]*
View 3 Replies View RelatedI created a group, and after adding the users into this group, they have a /home/worksharing that is shared
Code:
addgroup teamnight --gid 2578
So that everyone of the teamnight can read/write data of the /home/worksharing , how can this folder be forced, so that all from it e.g. subdirectories, directories, files,... will take the GID group number 2578 of teamnight?
I would like to ask you if there is any maximum allowed number of files per folder in linux (without risking it to lose everything). I am using openuse 11.4 with latest kde (4.6?).
I am trying something fast and dirty and it might be that one folder will contain like 10^6 files.
Is there is anything I should be warned about that?
Yesterday after downloading a file I tried to find it on the desktop where downloaded files are saved. It does not appear in nautilus but when I look for it from command line it appears to be there. I simply do 'ls' for this and that means its not hidden.Googled it for an hour to find a suitable answer but most of the posts focus on removing the in front of file name which is not the case here.

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

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to set up Conky to show a number of RSS feeds, and while I can get it to show the raw titles of items how would I trim these titles down to a given number of characters (say, 40) and add an ellipsis to the end if text has been cut off? The length of titles by default can vary wildly, so if only for the sake of organisation it'd be nice to have a maximum title length imposed.
I found this thread that does something kind of similar for Transmission torrents, but I have no idea how I'd adapt it for RSS feeds. As it stands, the code (well, a sample at least) is simply:
Code:
SLASHDOT$hr
${rss http://rss.slashdot.org/Slashdot/slashdot/to 5 item_title 0}
${rss http://rss.slashdot.org/Slashdot/slashdot/to 5 item_title 1}

I need to get the max number from the name of a file
Formant of the file name:
[a-zA-Z]*_[0-9][0-9]_[A-Z][A-Z].log
Delimiter as underscore '_'
[code]....
known part in the above file name will be GA.log A give directory may or may not contain files in the above format or may contain file other then the above format if so then ignore it.
Eg:-
1) Directory=/tmp/log having below listed files
ant_01_EG.log ant_02_GA.log ant_04_EG.log cvs_01_EG.log cvs_02_GA.log cvs_04_EG.log master_01_GA.log master_03_EG.log master_04_GA.log
[code]....
output=> 06
2) Directory=/tmp/log no files
cmd=> ls *[0-9][0-9]_GA.log 2> /dev/null | awk -F_ '{ print $2}' | sort -nr | head -n1 | awk 'BEGIN { if ($1 >0 ) x=0; else x=1 } END {printf "%02.0f
", $1+1}'
output=> 01
if there are no files the output should be 01 and if file(s) found the output should be next highest number+1, In the above example it is 06 My cmd is bit lenghty. reduce my cmd and it should be in one line.

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.
Can we find the inode of a particular file using its inode number?
The reason is i want to know how many blocks are occupied by specific file.
if we consider block size of 1K.
if the file size is of 100 bytes. In such a case, when the file is
stored on disk, the file will occupy 100 bytes or 1K (since we have
choosen block size to be 1K) ?
I'm trying to write a script that takes two arguments, the first argument is a number, and the second argument is a filename. The shell script should indicate if the file's size is BIGGER or SMALLER the number provided. this is what i have sofar, am i on the write track, i'm hoping its just a problem with my if command
if [ $1 -h $2 ]
then

I'm trying to isolate a number from a text file using sed. The text file looks like this:
-GARBAGE-GARBAGE-GARBAGE- Number of frames: 183933 frames Codec -GARBAGE-GARBAGE-GARBAGE-
I tried the following:
Code:
sed "s/^.*Number of frames: //g; s/ frames Codec.*$//g" "info.txt" > "frames.txt"
Strangely, it only seems to be stripping off the end, but not the beginning, like so:
-GARBAGE-GARBAGE-GARBAGE- Number of frames: 183933
I'm obviously not using the command correctly, so what am I doing wrong?
# echo "foobar" > /tmp/word
# cat /tmp/word | wc -m
7
I want to print the number of characters in the file. Why does it output 7? Am I missing something obvious?

I need to know the version number of tar used to create a specific tar file. How can I do that?
View 1 Replies View RelatedIf you create a file on UNIX/linux with special chars, like touch "la*, you can't remove it with rm "la*. You have to use the inode number(you can if you add the before the name, I know, but you'd have to guess as a user that it was used in the file creation).
I checked the manpage for rm, but there's no metion of the inode number. Doing rm inodenumber doesn't work either.
What is the command for this?
I have a large number of log files, on a linux box, I need to cleanse sensitive data from before sending to a third party. I have used the below script on previous occasions to perform this task, and it has worked brilliantly (script was built with some help from here :-)

However, now one of our departments has sent me a CLIENT_FILE.txt with 425000+ variables! I think I may have hit some internal limit. I have tried splitting the client file into 4 with around 100000 variables in each, this still doesn't work. I'm loathe to keep splitting though as I have 20 directories with up to 190 files in each directory to run through. The more client files I make, the more passes I have to do.

$ echo 2 * 3 > 5 is a valid inequality. This will create a file in the current directory named '5' with the number '2' in it, the names of all the files in the current directory, followed by the number '3' and 'is a valid inequality.'
What I do not understand is why 'is a valid inequality' gets written to this file. I thought it would write '2', all the file names in the current directory, then '3' into the file called '5'. Why does the 'is a valid inequality.' get written to the file also?

Getting together a script that will add numbers to all the files in a folder.
I've ripped most of my CDs to oggs for my new pmp, but I found that the pmp doesn't like files that are numbered just as 1 and 2, as it thinks that the 2 is more than 10.
So instead of going through all of my music folders and renaming every file by hand from 1 to 01 and from 2 to 02, I'd ask if there's a script that can be executed to add these numbers for me. It'd be even better if it only added the number to the files with only one digit.
Here's an example:
I want to rename:
And I'd like to do it to all single-digit files lower than 10 in the folder, if possible. If not, I can isolate them by hand.
