My site was recently hacked and a line of <JAVASCRIPT> was inserted into all my php files. Is there a way to pull just that one line out of all the php files on the server? I was thinking of using a grep -iR <CODE> *.php then piping thru sed
View 1 Replies View RelatedThis solution works but is slow with large files. I am looking for a faster solution.
The 2 files contain filenames, one of them has associated data I want to append to the other file's matching filenames
file1:
file2:
I append file2 by matching the unique_filenames and appending them with the tag data and some formatting

Here is the SLOW code
while read inputline.
I'm working with a rather large file of data taking from a tracking program on my phone, and trying to pull only the longitude and latitude from it. Any given line in the data looks more or less like this:
{"lon":-122.3083848,"time":1.273515839496E9,"source":"skyhook","nap":28,"altitude":0,"name":"location","hpe" :29,"bearing":0,"ncell":0,"lat":47.6544453}
I've run it through this command:
grep skyhook log-2010-05-10_18-17-28.json | cut -d"," -f1,10
to get this:
{"lon":-122.30872015,"lat":47.65812201}
{"lon":-122.3076686,"lat":47.6569975}
{"lon":-122.3079161,"lat":47.656395}
{"lon":-122.3096168,"lat":47.656218}
{"lon":-122.3096285,"lat":47.656206}
Which is a lot nicer, but I would prefer not to have to hand remove the non-number characters by hand since there are thousands of data points. what I could do to get it to just be longitude and latitude in 'number number' format?
Code:
sed -n '123p' file
that will print line 123 but how might I insert text to a specified line?
I have to delete a certain line of text from the a textfile via ubuntu's shell scripting.I have done research, and it seems that most people advocate the usage of sed /d option. sed makes does not edit the text file. Hence, most options I discovered involved the use of a temporary variable/textfile and then overwriting the old file with the temporary new file. Is there anyway whereby I can bypass the use of temporary storage containers? I hope there is any magical combination of commands to edit the file directly.

I have a lot a folders, each named by a number, and in each of these folders I have a specific file (stddev.dat) containing a single line (of numbers) I need to have a single file with each line being one of the stddev.dat (no matter if it is sorted or not), and also I need to add at the begining of each line the number of the folder it comes from.
I 'm no bash expert, and the "add at the begining of the line" is a bit of problem to me". Here is what I've come up with so far, just to put everything in one file, (and also if you know a better/more elegant way to do the same thing I've done, I'm listening)

I have two txt files containing x and y coordinates: xcoord.txt & ycoord.txt. I need to open them; read them line by line to get each coordinate; then each time I need to update Xs and Ys parameters inside another file called "dc.in" with the grabbed values.

Was wondering if any perl guru's could help me with a quick log file adjustment. I have a text file that looks like so (tabs and newlines are revealed so you can see what separates the data):
There are maybe 100 lines of text in this file at any given time. I need to delete all duplicate lines only looking at the first bit of text prior to the first tab. It doesn't matter which one gets deleted as long as there are no two lines that begin with that same text at the beginning before the first tab. So in this example, either the fist line "1234" or the last line "1234" would need to be deleted. I already have code in my script that opens the files - I just need the code to read the text into an array and the part that would find matches based on the above criteria, and make the deletions.
If it would be easier, I can even do a system call and use SED (v4.1.5) and/or AWK (3.1.5) instead.
I have a folder with many many files. e.g html, docs, excel sheet, script etc.
Now I want to find {using grep command}a certain word in that folder/directory and delete it in all the files and scripts that have it.
For example, I want to delete the word /testing (with the slash) in all files in a directory.
I am looking for a way to keep a log and make if then statements if a line exitsts in the log. I also am looking for a way to make a simple loop, like goto line number, and I also am wondering how to add/remove bits of text from a text file (plugins line in server.properties)
View 5 Replies View Relatedbash 3.1.17(2) I'm trying do write a shell script which must operate on each line of an ASCII text file. So, all the code must be inside a loop, and inside the loop, the first thing should be to read the next line from the file. I have the bash read command. But it reads from stdin. Any way to make read from a file?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm a bit new to Python programming and hoped that someone might be able to help with a problem I'm having.

This is basically for adding on values to the end of a CSV file that uses ';' as the delimiter. So say file1 said:
And file2 said:
Then running this command would create merged_file1_and_file2 which would be:

As I'm sure any experienced python programmer will see, this prints out the first line of the file "csvraw" and then all of the lines of "stamps" and then the remainder of "csvraw".

I have huge text files with two fields, the first is a string the second is an integer. The files are sorted by the first field. What I'd like to get in the output is one line per unique string and the sum of the numbers for the identical strings. Some strings appear only once while other appear multiple times. Given the sample data below, for the string glehnia I'd like to get 10+22=32 in the result. how to do this either with gnuwin32 command line tools or in linux shell?
