I have a CSV file with 8 columns. I want to check the 5th column, which will contain a single capitalised letter. If that letter is say "B" I would then like to replace the 2nd column in the csv with an incremental number starting at 0 (basically a count) with a prefix of B (B0000001) Sample row would be:
Code:
C, 0109390,sfs,sfsf,B,blah,blah
Amended row would be:
Code:
C, B000001,sfs,sfsf,B,blah,blah
I need a lightweight GUI text editor on my Ubuntu Lucid system which lets me specify a Unicode code point (e.g. U+1234), and inserts that character to a UTF-8 text document. I know that gedit can't do it (not even with the Character Map plugin).
I'm not interested in solutions involving any kind of emacs or vi. I'm also not interested in text editors running in the terminal (such as joe, which has this functionality). I need the absolute simplest, smallest and fastest plain text editor for Linux which lets me type a few letters, insert a few characters by their code, type some more letters, and then save the .txt file as UTF-8-encoded.
1.What character instructd the shell to interpret a special character as an ordinary character?
2.What directory contains some of the utilities available on the system in the form of binary files?
3. What command is used to search the location of a utility?
4. What command is used to instruct the editor to write the file and quit the editor?
5. What key quits the more utility and displays the shell prompt?
6. What command starts a child shell as the super user, taking on root's identity and environment?
7. Which wildcard characters can be used for searching all the files in the system that start with "A"?
8. The user name or login name of the super user is????

I need a script that will replace '/' in a variable with ''I have tried the following:
Code:
y=$(echo $1|sed 's///\/g')
The thing is that this approach does not always work. Here is an example:
Code:
user@pc:~$ sh script.sh /usr/var/sakis.txt
z:usr
arsakis.txt
user@pc:~$ sh script.sh /usr/tar/sakis.txt
z:usr arsakis.txt
Is there a way to treat those characters?
I am bouncing a file across platforms (windows->solaris->mainframe), and the file is starting out with a "special" character (the registered trademark "circle R") in some of the records. This character is not in the EBCDIC character set on the MF, so it is unrecognizable. The MF developer I am working with asked if it is possible to replace the character with a specific hex value (AF) before it gets to the MF.
I was putzing around with sed, tr, etc. on the ksh command line, hoping to find an easy way to get one of them to substitute hex instead of ASCII. I have found that the usual shell utilities recognize the trademark character, so homing in on what to replace is solved. But I cannot get anything to actually substitute in the hex sequence I want. E.g. I was thinking something like...
>cat special_file | sed 's/R/AF/g'
But my version of sed does not seem to have hex "editing" capability.
I want to use SED to do the following: In a text file replace any occurrences of the three character string ZZZ with a quotation mark "and. replace all occurrences of a comma with a semi-colon. It is the S/ / / command which is stumping me on the first issue...inparticular how to get the replace string to be quote.

I was messing around with the alternate character panel app and made a custom character set. I then wanted to put it on a new panel and created a new panel. I moved the character set to that panel, and then started to mess around with the panel settings (auto hide, show hide buttons, and expand, to be specific.) So far so good, until I moved the panel from the right side of the screen to the top. I already had a panel here, and it seemed not to like hiding a panel when there was already one on the top.
When the new panel hid itself, all my panels stopped responding (any clicks on them did nothing) and my processor started going at 100%. I tried a reboot and the only thing that changed is that now I can't even see my panels. I'm guessing I need to change the settings back manually through the prompt, but I don't know how to do that. I am using 10.04 and have not upgraded gnome since upgrading to 10.04.

In programming and various terminal programs (Screen, Vim) the [, ], { and } tends to be used a lot. I'm using a Norwegian keyboard where these are placed such that I have to stretch my fingers a bit too long for whats comfortable. To make it easier I though I'd try to make alt+[some key] be one of these characters. Is there a way that I can bind, say alt+� (Norwegian letter) to '{' system wide?Btw, is such thing called binding, mapping or something else? I'm getting a bit confused by the terms...

I am attempting to set a character set of IBM850 on slackware linux for a particular application (epic5). I am using rxvt-unicode and have setup LANG/LC_*=en_US. Now if I set the encoding to IBM850 in kde's konsole program im able to display certain characters correctly. I'd rather not use IBM850 for everything; is there a way to set/alias a command for a per application execution?
I've tried things like:
LC_CTYPE=IBM850 epic5
LC_ALL=IBM850 epic5

i studied the program chardev.c from 'The kernel module programming guide'. The text tells me that by doing a :
1. 'cat' the character device is opened.
2. hi > /dev/hello the character device is written into.
now i wanted to know how to 'read' from the character device !
I'm reading linux device drivers,
and I'm creating a scull-like driver.
I alloc a chrdev region
with
alloc_chrdev_region(&dev,minor_number,number_of_devs);
how can i deallocate it ? I tried with
unregister_chrdev_region but it does work only for
statically allocated devices.
i want to deallocate it so that only a single major number is assigned to my driver and
cat /dev/devices | grep $dev_name
returns no more than 1 line.
