General :: Differences Between Windows .txt Files (Unicode Encoding)?
Jun 7, 2011
I am only using the 128 character set defined in the original ANSI standard. But as a whole how are the files implmeneted differently. I am not concerned with the display, i.e. if a tab is displayed with 6 or 8 characters but the actual internal representation in memory
One differnce I've hear is the use of (Windows) vs. for line termination (Linux).

Iam having the following two linux files.
[Code]...
Now i want the following out puts
1. similar nos in both the file 1 and file 2 > output= File 3;
2. In file 1, but not in file 2 > out put= file 4;
3. In file 2, but not in file 1 > output = file 5;
The command sdiff is giving output with symbols > < | etc, and the such output file is not clear and ready to print. I want to print directly the output files. AND ALSO TELL ME WHERE I HAVE TO WRITE AWK PROGRAMS AND HOW TO RUN IT.

Is it correct to say that Windows UAC is conceptually the same as Linux sudo?
Can you point out the differences between the two?

I want to convert many text files(copied from windows workstation) into utf-8 encoding file. Yes, iconv is available for it. However, I have to give source file encoding at the command line parameters! The problem is, at most case, I am not sure the source encoding of it. And, I also want to use a script to convert many files recursively.

I tried to tag late onto a question similar to mine on stackoverflow (Find Non-UTF8 Filenames on Linux File System) to elicit further replies, with no luck so far, so here goes again... I have the same problem as the OP in the link above and convmv is a great tool to fix one's own filesystem. My question is therefore academic, but I find it unsatisfactory (in fact I can't believe) that 'find' is not able to find non standard ascii characters.
Is there anyone out there that would know what combination of options to use to find filenames that contain non standard characters on what seems to be a unicode FS, in my case the characters seem to be 8bits extended ascii rather than unicode, the files come from a Windows machine (iso-8859-1) and I regularly need to fetch them. I'd love to see how find and/or grep can do the same as convmv.

I'm trying to convert the encoding of multiple files in a directory and I try to do it as follows.
Code:
#/bin/bash
find . -type f -name *.txt -exec iconv -f GBK -t utf-8 "{}" -o "{}.utf8" ;
find . -type f -name *.utf8 -exec mv -f "{}" `echo "{}" | sed 's/.utf8//'` ;
The first command goes well by generating utf8 files from all txt files, but the second command fails with error message. Could someone enlighten me about the mistake in the command and share a workable solution?

I have been having a problem with K9 Copy whenever I try to convert a DVD to MPEG files using the method without encoding, but for some reason lately it seems to be splitting each episode into about 6 or 7 pieces instead of just one. I never usually have a problem with this, but for some reason it seems to be doing this whenever I try to rip something. On a side note, I am running on Obuntu 9.10 and have K9Copy version 2.3.0 installed. I have tried installing several other versions, but it does the same thing with each.

Is there an app or find parameter that can search for video files using a specific (DivX for example) encoding? On Windows, you can do this, so I was hoping there would be some way on Linux whether it's with find or another app. I want to find all (*.avi OR *.divx) on my file system with the DiVX fourcc tag (i think that's what its called)

How is it possible to add a new hpfs disk with utf16 encoding files system? I would like to add my windows 7 device at the boot beginning automaticly? I could mount in gnome with nautilus with a one mouse click.
Code:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# Use 'blkid -o value -s UUID' to print the universally unique identifier
# for a device; this may be used with UUID= as a more robust way to name
[Code].....

Any SCP client (on Windows/Cygwin) support UTF-8 encoding of filenames?
WinSCP does not support UTF-8 encoding with SCP protocol but with SFTP.

I'm working with an embedded Linux (Montavista 5.0). I want to allow users of my program to choose filenames with Unicode chars like the German All Unicode chars are visible inside the program (dialogs, buttons,...) and I can write Unicode chars into files and read them. But it is not possible for me to create a file with an Unicode filename! I can't write such Unicode chars in the shell! I set my locals to "de_DE.utf8". locale charmap says UTF-8! But when I try
Every Unicode char is writte to the shell in this way with a leading The same happens when I write such chars from my program to the shell with printf!

I wish to install ubuntu 10.04 on my desktop PC, but before I do that I need to back up my HDD. Due to alot of filenames show as having a wrong encoding, ubuntu will not let me copy the files. We are talking hundres of files in many sub folders.
The way I see it, I either have to:
1. have ubuntu back up my files in annother way (and not simply dragging and dropping as I have tried)
2.use some sort of tool to convert/fix the filenames so I wil then be able to back them up.
I've tried the following using convmv as mentioned here, but with no succes.
Code:
convmv -r --notest -f windows-1255 -t UTF-8 *
I'm using a live cd, thus the files are not located in my home folder, but on a separate parrtition.

What I am trying to do is to convert a mass of files from standard Windows text encoding to UNIX encoding(462 .txt files). After a bit of searching, I found this bit of code, changed the necessary parts, put in "Sleep" so I could see the output and ran it:
Code: #!/bin/bash
FROM=iso-8859-1
TO=UTF-8

I have a proprietary device - something like an iPad screen - which has a front panel display with touchscreen buttons that work internally as a USB keyboard. During testing/debugging I want to connect it to another keyboard via the external USB port.Any application which I open on the device by pressing some characters on the touchscreen accepts input codes from either USB keyboard. I want to limit the touchscreen USB keyboard input only to a specific set of apps.Is there a program which can help me detect which USB port or device the code is coming from? Or someway I can map one keyboard to send a different set of codes? The device is using Linux.

My old Intrepid box got old and senile in the hardware, so I had to take it back round the shed and put her down.I buried her next to her favorite tree in the backyard. So yes, I got this new Mini ITX setup with a dual core Atom processor and 4 gigs of ram for my new computer. I'm going to use it as a media center in my living room. However Atom 1.6 ghz is no screamer so I'd like to build a system using a light weight operating environment to leave more power for running programs and playing my media.
I could install the latest version of Kubuntu again but I thought this time I'd try to get a bit deeper into Linux and educate myself. Could someone clarify the differences between XFree86, Window Manager, and a Desktop Environment (KDE/GNOME/etc)? I know it goes like Hardware -> XServer -> XFree86 -> Window Manager (I read the tutorial on linux.org). But where does KDE or a "Desktop Environment" come in? Is KDE a decked out window manager with its own programs that runs on top of XFree86 or what? Or does it totally replace XFree86?

I've recently switched from Windows to Ubuntu Studio (11.04), and my only remaining problem is the encoding of the file names in my music collection. The music files are on a D-Link DNS-323 NAS, and were put there in Windows. The files with accented characters look like this in the terminal:
04 V? ?kur? ?.m4a
and they look like this in Nautilus: This is the relevant line in my /etc/fstab:
Code:
//192.168.0.6/Volume_1 /media/dns_323 cifs iocharset=utf8,username=admin,password=speaker,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777 0 0
Many people seem to have solved this problem by adding the iocharset part, but it isn't working for me. I also tried nls=utf8.I've looked into using convmv to change the file name encoding, but I'm having trouble with that, too. I've read that Windows uses UTF-16, but when I try:[code].....I only half understand any of what I've tried to do,

I took the simple approach and installed the gnome desktop, but I have read about KDE and Xfce and am curious. There may be a lot more that I just haven't heard about yet too. So the question is: Without doing a reinstall and messing up the downloads and settings I have now, how do I try a new desktop like Xfce or Kde? Also, what are the basic differences between the desktops?

What are the differences between shell , console & terminal?
This probably sounds like a stupid question but I'm having a lot of trouble clearly differentiating between a shell (such as Bourne or bash) and the Terminal application in GNOME. I realise that both are completely different but I can't seem to find a clear answer written in text. Could anyone clearly distinguish between both?
