I have a number of files:FooBlahhFooI only want to be able to grep for names in a file that contain Foo and not BlahhFoo. However I am not able to pull only those files away. How can this bee done. My grep/zgrep knowledge only goes this far at this point. I'm still learning but I'm stuck on how to make my arguments more precise zgrep 'Foo' SomeFileIMade.gz > /home/user/FOOFILE

I am supposed to take some small files, and print them to a specific printer, such that the small files are concatenated into one file. The file name has to be included in the file that gets printed.
Should I be looking to concatenate the files into one file with the file names included, and then print them?
something like: -printfunction -printername < file*
I have a considerable number of files in a subdirectory (some fascinating old military clips from archive.org - search on Big Picture if interested). Anyhow, I am downloading them using Internet Download Manager running in an XP virtual machine in VMWare on my Ubuntu 10.04 PC (due to the queuing, restart and speed capabilities of IDM). But I digress - the files are being saved on the host (Samba share) without a file extension. So I have a collection of files with names like

I wish to add the extension ".mp4" In Windows this is simply done with the command
Quote:
rename *. *.mp4
This of course does not work in Linux. I have researched the Linux rename command and reviewed a lot of examples. However, I have not found a way to add an extension to a batch of files which are named with no extension to start with. The spaces in the file names also seem to present an issue. At the moment I am renaming them from the Windows VM while they are sitting on the Samba share using the ancient File Manager program from Windows NT which works great on XP. I have experimented with the file rename facility in Gnome Commander however, it does not seem to want to do something so simple.

View 4 Replies View Relatedsomeone once told me that use can pass a file to grep and use that to search the contents of another file. if that is the case I'm not entirely sure why the following isn't working for me.
Code:

Let me *try* and explain what I'm trying to do, and keep in mind aside from a little command line stuff I'm a beginner to any of what I'm asking about.
I have a directory structure something like this:
Code:
/usr/local/chatlogs/
webserver1/
1.chatlog
2.chatlog
[Code]....
So that whatever was captured in the () in the first part of the statement would be used in the 1 in the back part of the statement for every n.chatlog that might be in any of the /webserver directories at that time.
I have collection my routers configuration through rancid. Now i want to do the following,
Display all the files that contain the following words
C1841 AND HWIC-4ESW
I want to display all the files that contains both these words.
I use the command line frequently to navigate my files so I try not to have spaces in file names. Typically I have used an underscore to connect words but it was recently suggested that I should use a dash. Are there any disadvantages to using an underscore in file names?Should I switch to a dash? My system is running Xubuntu and I almost exclusively use the bash shell.

When I type in the command directly, without using an inbetween variable, it works fine.
I would like to write a newline delimeted rules file using PCREs for use with the grep command. Grep has the option -f to obtain the search pattern from a file, and option -P to search using PCREs. However, these two options do not work together. The -f option only seems to work with fixed string rules.A friend previously helped me get around this limitation somehow, but I can't remember how he did it. I also would like the ability to add comments at the end of each rule in the file.

I don't have this problem in other applications. I can create files with special character included. I think some settings do not agree with KDE4. How can I solve this problem? Does anyone have an idea? I also installed KDE systemsettings program but could not find a relevant config option for character encoding.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI use amarok 2 and I have a lot of files that are titled "Track #.mp3", in Amarok I have changed them to see as the real songs but the actual files are still the same. Is there a way to change the actual file names using amarok to match the tags I have inside of amarok? The reason why I'd want to do this:
1. If my home folder becomes corrupt I don't have to redo 100's of songs (I have a backup but none the less
2. If I ever decide to use another program or if I'm in W7 using Windows Media Player classic it'd be nice to have it recognize the correct files without having to double up on the tag editing
If this isn't possible I'm going to wishlist it because I think it's functional and having a bunch of Track# files is a pain but impossible to get around when you have a lot of mix cd's.

How can I save the result of grep to the input file?
I'm not sure if this is possible or even where to start. I assume that this can be done with an sh script using tar or similar.I have several very large zip files that contain images for all of the products in my online store. Each image is named after its 13 digit SKU (for example, 9987788000012.jpg). In order to import products into my store, all images are placed into a media directory. Unfortunately, there are over 100,000 images.
So I would like to break the images into sub-folders based on file name. For example, when I extract store_images.zip (or tar or whatever), my extract script would create directories (if they don't already exist) based on the first three digits of each image name, placing each image into the appropriate bottom level directory. For example, "9987788000012.jpg" would be placed in the following directory "media/9/9/8", with media as the root and "8" as the directory that holds any images that start with "998". Perhaps two sub-folders would be less cumbersome.Assuming this requires a script, particularly since it involves scanning image names, creating folders, and saving images to specific directories, which language would serve my needs best? PHP? Has anyone had to do something similar?
