I have a batch rename task and I find the 'rename' command in Ubuntu and Fedora is different.In Ubuntu, rename is written in Perl and has regexp support. Is there anyway to install it on Fedora?

I have 6GB of RAM and I'm planning to install Fedora 14 32-bit to achieve a higher degree of compatibility. Does fedora automatically download and install a PAE enabled kernel when it detects more than 4GB of RAM (Just like Ubuntu)?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI need to compare 2 files using diff. The problem I've encountered is that I need to exclude certain lines that contain certain phrases. I know that diff supports the -I switch but no matter how I try to form the regexp it doesn't seem to work the way I expect it to. If anyone has used the -I switch before could you please post some examples of how it is used.
diff -I "[skipthisline]" file1 file2 > output.diff
I need to exclude lines that contain the string "[skipthisline]" but I have no idea what syntax is used after the -I switch. Is is supposed to be included in quotes or slashes /[skipthisline]/ or entered without either? I need to include a backslash before each bracket so that it's not interpreted as a set of characters like [a-z] but is instead interpreted as a string. Do I need to use 2 backslashes? "\[skipthisline\]"
Is it sufficient to simply type the string I want to match or do I need to match the entire line in order to exclude it from the output?
.*[skipthisline].*
or
^.*[skipthisline].*$
I have a sed script to search and replace a pattern on the next kind of text:

The script is:

How would I rename all files with a leading decimal point recursivley? I some how got all my music files to have a decimal point.I tried the below and got a " sed argument to long".[CODE]find /media/MUSIC -type f -name "*.wma" | xargs -0 sed -i 's/.(.*)/1/'[CODE]
Another question, can i just use -type f with out -name ? I am sure that all the files got the decimal point added as the first character.
What keyboard shortcut will give me a regexp reverse search in bash? Or does C-r supply something like that already that I can't figure out?

Im using posfix as a outgoing mail server, here i want to distribute the mails to different ips to avoid the ip blacklisting. I found a solution by using multiple transports , but here one thing blocking me was i could not able to select a transport using regexp or pcre matching pattern, log says that
Code:
Jun 5 07:12:49 server postfix/trivial-rewrite[6079]: warning: pcre map /etc/postfix/transport.pcre, line 1: regular expression substitution is not allowed: skipping this rule
the transport used for this purpose is:-
Code:
#cat /etc/postfix/transport.pcre
/^.*@([a-z])ol.com$/ transport$1:
I'm using an 'if' statement to check whether one of positional arguments is a word or a construction like "x-y", but something doesn't seem right.
Here is the relevant part of the code:
Code:
if [[ "$3" =~ [a-Z]-[a-Z] || "$3" =~ [a-Z] ]]; then
grepRange=$3; else grepRange=$4
fi
And for the input like this:
[Code]....
but shouldn't the $grepRange variable be blank in this case?
Bash version is 4.1.7(1)
Have a bash script which contains a line like this:
if [[ ${array[${last}]} =~ "screenpc.PRODUCTION.*" ]]
which WORKED as expected in bash 4.0.33 and now fails in 4.1.2
Instrumented the script to print the value of the left-hand side and it is exactly what is expected.
As noted above, this has been working fine until we installed Fedora 13 (kernel 2.6.33), and now it fails.
Tried setting shell 'extglob' to On with same results.
Did something change? Are there other shell/bash options that need to be set?this has the whole installation stopped!
I have about 300 files that need renaming, because the file system does not display the French characters properly. The dodgy letter in question has been replaced by a "question mark in a black diamond" symbol.No way of renaming, other then using mv in the Konsole has worked. Is there any way, script or program out there, that will do a batch rename?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm doing a clean install on a new machine, and when I tried to boot the install DVD, ISOLinux gave me the following error:
Code:
Could not find kernel image: linux After some experimentation, I found that switching the SATA mode in the BIOS from AHCI to Native IDE solved the problem and installation is proceeding normally.
However, I want AHCI enabled. (I think, unless someone has a compelling reason why I shouldn't.) My web-searching suggests that if the system is installed in IDE mode, it won't boot if I switch to AHCI afterwards. Is this a common problem? Is there a workaround? Is it a motherboard issue?
I have a list of .jpg files from two cellphones that I would like to rename to the file creation date... but so far I can't seem to find a suitable script (or anything remotely close to what I need).
