I want to grep for $_POST['whatever']. I've done enough googling and trying different things (and failing) to where I felt it appropriate to post here. How do I identify the single quotes as literals? slashes don't seem to do it.
View 1 RepliesI am not sure If anybody has faced this issue, my keyboard is less responsive when pressing the double quote/single quote key, I have to press it twice for it to print the quote( and that too it prints some other data and not exactly a double-quotes). Initially I thought it was issue with my keyboard, but later I see that it is working fine in Windows XP. It looks some kind of setting issue. If you check the below two examples, example a) is the double quote printed in Ubuntu, it doesnt exactly looks like a double-quotes and b) is the one printed in Windows.

View 7 Replies View RelatedAfter I assign a string to a variable, I know that the print function will remove the single quotes around the value, but is there a way to assign a variable without the quotes around the value? for example:
a = open('/usr/lib', 'r+')
b = f.read()
c = x.replace('.xx','yy')
d = ?
c returns the value with quotes around it print c returns the value without the quotes Is there a way to assign a new variable (d) which will equal c without the quotes? I need a new variable which has the quotes omitted because from there the script will take the value of the last variable (which is a path to a file), and tar up that file. It won't recognize the path to the file if the value has quotes around it.
I have some code written in VHDL that looks as follows:
Code:
foo = "bar";
foo <= 'bar',
[code]...
In bash I need to use some equivalent of double quotes inside double quotes (or the other way around.)I need to run the following statement to get the output of foo and store it in a variable while passing foo the $file which probably contains spaces.
Code:
variable=$(foo "$file")
The problem is that foo might return an empty string and if it does I need to catch it

I was going to file a bug to findutils on gnu.org when I saw a notice that asked me whether I knew the difference between these two commands:find -name *.c and find -name "*.c".I use find command quite often but I don't think these two have any difference.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI exported a spreadsheet file into cvs format.
The cvs file is formatted this way
field1,field2,field3,..etc
I want it to be in a Quote delimited format like so
"field1","field2","field3",..etc
When I run for i in $(find -name '*.ogg'); do echo '$i'; done I don't get one line per file as I expected. Instead, when a file name has a space in it, each word comes out in a separate line, so I can't run commands on the files.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to synchronize the content of the directory my_dir/ from /home to /backup. This directory contains a file which name has a double quote in it, such as to"to. Here is my rsync command:
rsync -Cazh /home/my_dir/ /backup/my_dir/
And I get the following message:
rsync: mkstemp "/backup/my_dir/.to"to.d93PZr" failed: Invalid argument (22)
For info, rsync works well when the synchronized filenames contain single quote, parenthesis and space. Thus, why is it bugging with a double quote?

The following script will work when I type the path to the file I want to checksum, but not when I drag the file to the terminal because the linux terminal (unlike the Mac) automatically puts quotes around the file path, which causes an error. I did not find anything in gconf-editor or anywhere else to alter this behaviour, and my post in Launchpad is unanswered so far. (the script in itself is not very useful, I just stumbled upon this error when experimenting with bash).
So, is there a workaround for stripping the quotes from the input, or can I configure the terminal to not quote the input when I drag a file into it (which I would prefer?)I am currently logged in from Mac OS, but the question refers to ubuntu karmic with which I dual boot.ADMINISTRATORS: Thanks for the quick reply to my newbie question about posting new threads. Actually I don't see now what the difficulty was; I guess I was tired from trying to debug the above script (not funny).
Are there any identifiers on an HDD that can be either seen physically on a "sticker" on the HDD, and the same number/identifier could be read with software solutions?
I mean if I see with e.g.: S.M.A.R.T. that an HDD (in RAID) is failing, then I give out the command:
SOMEMAGIC
then I get an OUTPUT, e.g.: 9835923759237489
and then are ther any stickers on the HDD that has a label: 9835923759237489 ? so the hdd that has to be changed could be identified.
I have a Red Hat Linux system that does not boot. The boot partition is damaged and files cannot be recovered.

I know that I can use the uname and /proc/cpuinfo to see my current info, but I am also not sure what I might need to do to get them to sync up. I am running on a minimal, cli-install of Ubuntu8.10 right now. It's freshly installed (onto a 2GB USB drive) & imaged, so bring on the drastic changes.
I do not know much about parallel computing, but I do have access to a few cpus.I am trying to write a program compatible for multiple cpus, but to do it, I need to ensure unique directories. I have figured out that the time of creation, process id, and cpu id form a unique combination I can use to name files (up to the degree of accuracy of the internal timer).Anyway, I am using perl. I know how to find the process id and I know I can get the time pretty easily, but as I said, I do not know much about hardware or parallel computing. All I need is a way to identify each cpu in the system and I am set for half of my program (the other half is significantly more straightforward and is mainly about text parsing.)
So anyway using terminal, perl, etc., I could access this identification? Or could someone at least tell me the name of what I am looking for? I have seen the words "ip" "MAC" "hostid" and a bunch of other "id" things come up in my googling, but I really cannot figure out which is the one relevent to me
