Jun 23, 20101. I need guide on how to create a folder name from the text file with .txt format.
2. First, I call the function of reading the directory.
3. Then, I dont know how to do.
4. Finally, I close the directory
This is my source code in perl
## read text.txt file ##
open F, "from/$directory/text.txt";
read F, $buf, 9999;
close F;[/size]
This source code is used to print the folder with date format like "ddmm" d stands for day and m stands for month
if ($command =~ s/-O "(.*)"/-O "$websites/$month/$file"/)
Instead, I want to have the name from text.txt to be folder name

View 4 Replies View RelatedUbuntu Security :: AVG Free Edition Does Not Seem To Create A Shortcut For Itself?
Apr 26, 2010I downloaded AVG Free Edition as protection after I accidentally visited a drive-by-download site (which was most likely trying to download a windows virus, I don't quite know what the file extension was on the file it tried to make me download 'cause I got out of that trap faster than a bat out of He...Well you get the picture), and it does not seem that the .deb package directly from the AVG Free Linux download page fully installs. Synaptic acknowledges the package's existence, yet there are no shortcuts on the Desktop or on the system menu. I followed the link to AVG from this Ubuntu.So, perhaps, someone at AVG has some explaining to do on why their free for Linux doesn't seem to work. I don't know maybe I'm overthinking my vulnerability, I'm just used to the environment of paranoia developed by using Windo$e

View 3 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Create Shortcut To Media Folder In Home Directory?
Dec 14, 2010I currently have an ASUS eebox which is running XBMC Live which includes a stripped down version of Ubuntu. The computer will be used by various people within a teaching environment and I have successfully installed launchers for Openoffice which can be opened within XBMC.
I am trying to the make the experience for the end user as simple as possible as the vast majority will have never used Linux before. I want to get to a point where they can open Openoffice, plug in their USB stick and navigate quickly to their files. At the moment when the program is launched and I try and navigate for a file it automatically starts in the Home Folder of xbmc. So I have navigate up a couple of times, then find the /media directory where the USB stick has been mounted and so on. What I was hoping to do is create a shortcut within the Home Directory which takes you straight to the Media folder where usb is mounted.
I have already attempted and created a folder within the Home directory and called it usbpen.
I have then added the following line into fstab /media /home/xbmc/usbpen none bind 0 0
Now when I reboot the machine and navigate to the home/xbmc/usbpen folder I can see the Drive name of the USB device mounted in /media but I cannot navigate through any of the files, I am greeted with a read error message. So the shortcut is only allowing me to see the device name only.
be aware that due to running XBMC Live I do not have a Windows manager installed and therefore everything must be done through the terminal.

Ubuntu :: Dragging Firefox Url Icon Fails To Create Desktop/shortcut File
Aug 16, 2011I'm trying to create a web shortcut (desktop file) by dragging the icon from the Firefox address bar to a Thunar folder or desktop. This worked with older versions of Thunar and Firefox, but now that I'm running Xubuntu Natty (Firefox 5 and Thunar 1.2.1) it fails. Depending on the web site I try, it either creates a file containing the page's html instead of creating a .desktop shortcut file, or fails to create any file at all.

Ubuntu :: Create A Text Searchable PDF File?
Apr 13, 2010I can do multiscan documents using xsane and the scanner and create multipage PDF. My next wonderment was how would you create it so you can search for text in the PDF file.

It looks like it would be a lot of work to put something like that together.

However, I receive that error. Does it want me to log in as root? I tried and it wouldn't let me, so I tried looking up how to do it, and I needed to change another text file with su (which is my problem in the first place). Just to be clear, this error occurs in any directory that I'm in. (home, or otherwise)
