View 2 Replies View RelatedI 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
know what can be done to enable the "select text to copy" and "shift+insert to paste" features in linux.

I installed Slackware 13.37 current 32 bit (kernel 2.6.38.7-smp) last saturday and almost everything works fine. I don't understand why I cannot use Ctrl-Ins and Shift-Ins shortcuts for copy and paste in console terminal. Shortcuts works fine in X terminal (fluxbox) Konsole... but they don't in text console.

View 4 Replies View RelatedWhen I connect to my ubuntu machine at work via NX (shadowing the existing session), I cannot select any text using the shift key. Shift key itself works (I can use it to capitalize letters for instance). It is just that arrow keys, page down/up keys, home/end does not work with shift. Without shift, they work (so I can navigate, just cant select). I tried running xev to see the key events. In the local X11 session (XQuartz), keeping shift key pressed and pressing home prints the expected key press/release events. However, in the NX session, pressing shift prints "key pressed Shift_L" but then pressing home/end/page up/page down prints nothing.
I have no problems with any of the other keys within the remote session. Alt, for instance, works perfectly fine (I can open menus, do alt_tab). Ctrl also works. Ctrl - arrow keys switches my desktops. Editing code is like nightmare because I have to constantly select text using the mouse. I can possibly remap the selection keys to some other combination but that's the last resort.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a number of text files (26 per database x 100+ databases) which need 'correcting' in order to import into postgresql. I think that I have identified all the problem characters and I need to automate the process as much as possible. I have a script to convert the characters and I do them one by one (not effecient but easier to understand).
[Code].....
To encrypt the text, we take the word "python" and make it at least the same size as "welcome home" by repeating it as follows:
w e l c o m e h o m e
p y t h o n p y t h o n
Then, we convert each letter into its numerical ASCII value as follows:
w e l c o m e h o m e = 119 101 108 099 111 109 101 032 104 111 109 101
[Code].....
And, finally, we convert the numbers back into their corresponding ASCII character:

View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to have a terminal open and have something like a "repeating cat" command running in it for a certain text file (in particular /var/log/system.log). So my terminal will scan or cat the text file every so often or whenever the text file system.log gets written to by the system, it will display whatever it wrote to the file in my terminal that is open.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have noticed since installing ubuntu 10.10 a few weeks back, that pasting into terminals no longer works as expected. In earlier releases, shift+ctrl+v would paste the contents of the clipboard to the terminal. However, now shift+ctrl+v no longer does this. According to the keyboard shortcuts window, shift+ctrl+v is the shortcut for pasting. How can I find out if another program is using this keybinding and thus preventing me from pasting in a terminal? I've looked in System > Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts but there's nothing relevant in there. Is there a program that I can run to see how the system responds to me pressing shift+ctrl+v? Is there anything else that I can try to fix this problem. I've grown used to pressing shift+ctrl+v to paste now, and having to remember to press shift+Ins does slow me down
