General :: Write A Bash Script That Will Read The Word From The Text File?

Jun 10, 2011

I have a text file that contains a single word and I want to write a bash script that will read the word from the text file... The following is my incorrect attempt, as it assigns the name of the textfile to the variable as opposed to the word stored within the textfile:(assume I have a text file value.txt that has its contents a single word, say wordone)

Code:
#!/bin/sh
for f in value.txt
do
echo $f
done

so the output of the above script is value.txt, however I want it to be wordone.to summarise: how do I assign the value of the word contained within a textfile to a variable?

General :: Isolate A Number From A Text File Using Sed?

Mar 27, 2010

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?

General :: Convert A Large Number Of File Types From None Standard To Text?

Sep 28, 2009

I have on my windows machine several hundred files that are a format of .nc .ncs for a CNC machine. I need to convert them to txt which is something as easy as opening in notepad and then saving as .txt but there are so many that this kind of action would take way too long.

The reason I am writing the linuxquestions is because I would feel more comfortable in loading a live CD and using some sort of terminal command to do this than I would to download one of the many "freeware" type programs I have found for windows (even more so since I have had a root kit before and had to start all the way over to get rid of it).

I need to know:

1. Is this possible to do with the terminal without super advanced knowledge.

2. Can one please point me in the right direction; something to read or an example

Software :: Delete Top Lines Of A Text File Until A Word Is Met?

Jul 7, 2011

I need to chop of the top 30ish lines of several log files until a line starting with "Initialization completed."The trouble is that it's not always the same amount of lines that need to be deleted, and they don't always contain the same information, which is why I would need to delete everything priorhe line starting with "Initialization completed."Right now I have a little script I wrote based on looping each file through several "grep -v" commands with each known pattern of lines I want to ignore, but it is tedious and I have to inspect each file afterwards to make sure nothing is left from above "Initialization completed

General :: Cannot Disable Word Wrap For All Text Files

Nov 13, 2010

I'm not a newbie to Linux, but I'm a newbie to LQ. I've searched the internet for an answer to an issue I'm having with JOE, to no avail.For my editing purposes, I HATE word wrap. I've read the man page extensively and nothing I try works.

To disable word wrap, it says, simply edit the joerc file and place --wordrap in the first column. Done. It works for .pl, and it works for .c (seems to be built in for C). Bottom line, I cannot disable word wrap for all text files, or at least the ones I want to edit. Has anyone solved this?

Programming :: Change Info In A Text File Using C++?

Jan 16, 2011

how to work properly on the windows forms application in c++.

the thing is that i was able to produce in the windows forms application a web browser and I added a save button. So know I am able to navigate predeclared webpages such as [URL]and then I entered google's search box such as "spread of H1N1". and I surf a page such as [URL] I later save the page as text file on my computer.

I wanted to know how to organize the words in the text file ? i mean how can i just get the number of infected people in USA , number of infected in CANADA (if they exist) from all the text file and change it to a file with precise data.that is to eliminate the unneeded information such as the the characteristics and the useless ideas? and what if i also wanted to know the characteristics of the virus in a country+the number of infected?.

Programming :: Sed To Change Character In Text File Only Once?

Sep 7, 2009

I have a script that looks like:

Code:

cat servers.txt
trivia:P:N
trivia:D:N
tucana:P:Y

[code]....

I want to be able to find the lines that matches my input and change the N to a Y, but only for the lines that matches the name and not any other N's My problem is the line does not always contain a P as it can be a D as well so my matching did not work. If my script issues the name $1=triva the lines will change to:

Code:

trivia:P:Y
trivia:D:Y

I have the following code so far but as you can see it does not change the D's

Code:

sed -i 's/trivia:P:Y/trivia:P:N/g' servers.txt

*** UPDATE ***

should I be using a method as follows? I am still stuck on the changing all instances though.

Code:

$1=server
sed -i 's/$server1:P:Y/$server:P:N/g' server.txt
sed -i 's/$server1:D:Y/$server:D:N/g' server.txt

I need to change this number in the file to be correct, i.e. each time the number is 9 it needs to be 1, each time it is 233 it needs to be 2, etc... There is no pattern to the numbers currently in the list other than the same number appears only in a single line/group of lines, not throughout the file, but the replacements need to be sequential (but can be repeated an arbitrary number of times).

Software :: Join 2 Text Files Based On First Number Present In Every Line Of The 2 Text Files?

Jan 22, 2010

I have 2 text files : file1.txt and file2.txt

cat file1.txt

cat file2.txt

2 this is sentence1file2
6 this is sentence2file2
54 this is sentence3file2

6 this is sentence2file2
15 this is a sentence containing various words and spaces
34 this is a another sentence containing various words and spaces
54 this is sentence3file2
