Does anyone have a solution for merging files if the number of rows in the two (or more) files is non-equivalent.To exemplify, how about merging the following 3 files:
file1:
1
2
[code]...
I need to write shell script which can take number of files and count total rows from all CSVs and display total number of rows counted in all files. Is there any possibility of doing that using shell script and if yes then how.

1, 2, 4, 5, 6
1, 3, 5, 6, 3
1, 4, 5, 6, 6
2, 4, 5, 5, 5
2, 3, 4, 5, 2
anyway i need to take the average of all rows with the same 1st number(key). i.e.
1, 3, 4.66, 5.66, 5
2, 3.5, 4.5, 5, 3.5
I know this is something awk/sed would be great for, i just dont have enough experience with them to accomplish it, Also, what about averaging those columns together? so, after I output this to a file, id like to get another like:
1, 4.58
1, 4.125
The number of colums to add might not always be 4 either. EDIT: this might be easier to do in gnuplot, so I mainly just need an answer to the first part.
I'm not that familiar with sed and awk in order to be able to solve this problem on my own, so I'm calling on you for a bit of assistance. I'm writing a Nagios plugin to check our Oracle tablespaces and the output is given in one line like this: 1.04007771 TEMP 0 UNDOTBS1 .005340579 USERS 0 7 rows selected. I've been playing around with sed like below to delete the obsolete info and change every second space into a newline:

how many tablespaces there are so I'd have to check all databases and 'hardcode' the tablespaces in my script. Is there any way to 'automate' this knowing that 'rows selected' preceded by a number is always the last line and using a sort of counter to auto-adjust the number to put in the -e 's/ / /2' part?
if there's a tab-delimited file under /usr/desktop, how can I determine the number of rows and columns of the file in shell?And, if told the the 3rd column of the file contains only numerical values and all values in the 5th column are unique, how can I verify these in shell?

I have a bunch of text logfiles in the following format:
ID (17 characters)
Timestamp (14 characters YYYYmmddHHMMSS e.g. "20060210100040" -> 2006/02/10 10:00:40)
Random data (? characters)
end of line
The files are already sorted by timestamp.I need to get 1 log file with all the logs from multiple logs files, sorted by timestamp. Note that the log files are really huge, around 3-4G each (and there are dozens of them) I tried the following command:
sort -s -m -t '|' -k1n,1n +17 -o data_sort.txt *.TXT
Here is how I ended up with this command:
-s : don't bother with tie results
-m : merge all logs files
-t '|' : there is no | in my logs, so the whole line should be field 1
[code]....
Actually... it fails miserably. The output file data_sort.txt is just the concatenation of all files, not sorted at all.
I would like to know which software can merge different videofiles (mpg, avi) into 1 file.

I have a latex code file which links itself to many other latex files. The syntax is as follows:input{*path of file to be inputed*}The path is relative to the current working directory, so if my file is stored in /home/kevin/mybook.tex and I want to include a file in /home/kevin/latexstuff/copyleft.tex I simply write:input{latexstuff/copyleft.tex}
The latex compiler includes these files just as if they had been copied and pasted into the main latex file at the point specified. My problem is that I have a document which depends on quite a bit of these input commands,ut I am trying to use a latex preprocessor (ratexdb, adds database fields to your latex documentshich does not support input commands, leaving my file only half processed.So I was wondering: is there any easy way to parse through my main file, detect only the input commands, interpret the syntax and include the files specified (where specified)nd produce a second, populated file, which can then be processed by ratexdb?
During the past eight years I've used a number of computers with different operating systems and browsers. On each one I made a habit of using the bookmark utility of each browser and saving the bookmarks file. I never ensured the continuity of the bookmark file - with each new computer I started a new bookmark file. Even when I was reinstalling the operating system I didn't import the old bookmark file in the newly installed browser: I've always started a new bookmark file. As a result I have tens of bookmark files for Firefox (json format - some kind of xml?) and IE (html file format?) each one containing hundreds or thousands of saved links. I have also some files containing links in text format (created usually when I was using someone else computer).
I would like to be able to manage this bookmarks files by using some sort of "bookmark manager" software. The "bookmark manager" should be able to merge the bookmark files into a single collection/file. It should be able to identify and remove the duplicate entries (I have timely versions of the same bookmark file) and also it should be able to group the entries/links on categories (for example the bookmarked articles on codeproject.com should be grouped under the codeproject category). Not to mention that it should provide a search facility to quickly locate the interesting bookmarks. I couldn't find such software in ubuntu software center. Do you know something that even comes close to what I need?
I have a problem - I have files with rows of data and I need to check if the next row (of the same type) has the NEXT date in it so I need to extract a date in YYYYMMDD format from a row (easy enough) then add one day to it and compare it to the the next date I encounter on a subsequent row.

I would like to ask you if there is any maximum allowed number of files per folder in linux (without risking it to lose everything). I am using openuse 11.4 with latest kde (4.6?).

Is there is anything I should be warned about that?

View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there any Linux application for finding the folders with the most number of files? baobab sorts folders by their total size, I'm looking for a tool that lists folders by the total number of files in it.
The reason I'm looking is because copying tens of thousands of small files is excruciatingly slow (much slower than copying a few large files of the same size), so I want to archive or delete those folders with high file counts that that will be slowing down the copying (it won't speed things up now, but it would be faster when I need to move/copy it again in the future).
I understand that chroot is usually used to provide security, however, for my issue, security is a big don't care. I am very new to using chroot and don't fully understand how the chroot'd env works.
problem: Trying to use a vendor supplied cross compile environment. The environment runs as a chroot'd env and works just fine. I have a large number of additional modules that I wish to compile in the chroot'd environment. FYI, these modules are also (succesfully) compiled for other targets not using chroot'd env's. Copying the source files into the the chroot environment is not an option (don't have hours to wait for copies to finish and it would break the make system). Having them live in the environment is also not an option (the chroot build is a tiny part of the build process and we cannot revamp our entire source tree to accommodate it).
I am looking for a way to have the compiler in the chroot'd env have access to a path that is outside of the env and typically higher up in the same path that holds the chroot'd env. I have tried soft links (they don't work as expected). Hard links only work for single files and there are 10's of thousands of files that would need to be linked. I am not sure how I would go about exporting the additional files and then mounting the exported files in the chroot'd env (or if that would even work).
I'm looking for a way to produce a list of all the directories in the current working directory sorted by the total number of files that are contained with them.
Initially I though that Nautilus could be used for this, but then I realised it doesn't count files in the sub directories.
The best I've got for a command line solution so far is this
Code:
The use case for this is a situation where a user has a quota applied to their home directory which limits the number of files they are allowed to have and they have exceeded that limit.
I'm running a find. -name pattern to find some files, and I'd like to elegantly get the total number of lines in these files. How can I achieve that?
