Programming :: Nontrivial String Replacement With Bash On-board Means?

Jan 9, 2011

My simple bash-script replaces --> by the HTML-entity for the right arrow. To be precise, it replaces --*> by → Until now, I used sed, for example:

Code: $ flight='AMS --> JFK'
$ echo "$flight" | sed -e 's/ --*> / → /g'

AMS → JFK With sed, -* matches zero or more dashes, because for sed the * is the Kleene Star matching zero or more instances of the previous element. So with sed, --*> matches exactly what I want:

Code:

->
-->
--->
---->

Because sed seems oversized for that task, I played around to accomplish the same with on-board means of bash without using sed. On first thought, this line looks like doing the same but it isn't:

Code: $ flight='AMS --> JFK'
$ echo "${flight// --*> / → }"

AMS → JFK As I recently learnt in this forum, this * isn't the Kleene Star. It is a multi-character wildcard matching any zero or more consecutive characters. So here, --*> matches:

Code:

->
-->
--->
---->
-<>
->>

-abc> And if you continue your flight to SEA, then the result is totally wrong because the * matches greedily:

Code: $ flight='AMS --> JFK --> SEA' $ echo "${flight// --*> / → }" AMS → SEA

The sed line above would produce the correct result and would match the dashes correctly.

I'm using vim 7.2.330 on 64 bit ubuntu 10.04, sometime in the last week every time I reopen a file it places the cursor at the top of the file. I can see in ~/.viminfo where it's saving the last position used, but it doesn't seem to be honoring it.

Ubuntu :: Need Another File Manager Feature / Add-on Or Replacement?

Nov 30, 2010

I'm running Nautilus in standard Ubuntu 10.10, but it lacks a feature that is very important for my usage. If there is a modification for Nautilus, that would be best, if there is another Linux file manager that provides the feature,When I save a file in a directory by starting to type what I want to name the file in the Windows file manager, at least from XP to current, then a list pops up below the typing line with a list of the files that match that string of characters. I don't know if or how Nautilus can be made to do this.

Why important: I use a Firefox add-on to download songs from some internet radio websites. Because I download so many, I follow the naming convention ARTIST- ALBUM- SONG. Because I've already got over 4000 songs so downloaded, I usually don't know if, when I hear a song, whether I've already downloaded it or not. By having the feature, I just start typing to name the file, and I quickly discover if I already have the song so I can skip the song until I get to one I have not downloaded.

General :: Using Sed To Replace String With Special Characters In XML File?

Apr 29, 2011

I am having difficulty getting sed to replace a string of text in an XML file, despite the fact that I have no trouble using grep to find that same string. Since the new string and old string to be replaced contain a lot of special characters, I thought it best to store them in variables as opposed to using a slew of backslashes:

OLD_STRING='<property name="webServiceHost">${jboss.bind.address}</property>'
NEW_STRING='<!--<property name="webServiceHost">${jboss.bind.address}</property>-->'

General :: Find Text After String Search In File

Aug 2, 2011

I have a file called Regions.ini that looks like this:

Code:
[Granite]
RegionUUID = 54ab7cd2-0e70-49b7-8020-8dbeb84c08d0
Location = 9991,10007
InternalAddress = 0.0.0.0
InternalPort = 9001
AllowAlternatePorts = False
ExternalHostName = 71.171.21.9

[Syenite]
RegionUUID = 8fc56fdd-0afd-4074-9432-0ae8f42b799f
Location = 9992,10007
InternalAddress = 0.0.0.0
InternalPort = 9000
AllowAlternatePorts = False
ExternalHostName = 71.171.21.9
What I need to do is find out what the IP address is after "ExternalHostName ="

After that I will need to compare that IP to whatismyip and if it's different then replace it but that is easy to do with sed. I just can't figure this simple hurdle out.
