General :: Specify More Than One String To Ignore (grep Command)?
Jul 28, 2010
I am using grep to filter out directories I am not interested in like this:svn stat | grep -v data/charts | grep -v lib/model | grep -v web/picsIt seems a bit "hacky". Is there a better way to specify more than one string to ignore, so that I dont have to chain multiple grep commands?

Q: Is there any way to use grep and sed with a string variable rather than with a file?
The problem: Im running through a LARGE (about 10,000 lines) xhtml file and need to replace every instance of lines beginning <p>~
The following code works but takes a long time mainlly because an in/out operation needs to be carried out on each line. If I could read from a string rather than a file it would take a much shorter time!
Code:
#!/bin/bash
count=$((0))
>tpf
echo "waiting....."

I want to match some filename in some text, but the filenames I have no control of, so "[" can "]" can appear in the filenames.so do I always have to use sed to addslashes to these variables before I have to grep them? and what other characters have I missed other than "[", "]", "."?

I need to search a text file for a string of numbers which are different lengths, and always are between number=" and " like:
number="1234567890"
number="22390"
I need to grab those numbers and pipe each one to a line in a file. I've already tried something with awk and that didn't seem to work.

I'm currently studying for my Linux+ test and I'm getting conflicting information regarding the rm -rf command. Yes, I know this a dangerous command, but my question is in regard to how the command functions. In one book I'm studying it says that rm -rf / home/myfolder (there's a space in there) will delete the entire root directory because there is a space between the root and home directory. It says that if there is a spacing such as this, it will ignore anything after the space, so in this case, it would delete the root directory and stop, not that there would be anything left anyway. Then in another book I have, it says that if you did a rm -rf folderName / (with the intention of adding the trailing slash to indicate it is a directory and not a folder) it will delete everything in folderName (assuming it's a child directory of your pwd) and then CONTINUE on and delete the root directory. Now, those two statements contradict each other. When you remove a directory, does the command line ignore anything after a space or not?

i use this script to get the time and date of back and fourth transactions for a particular execution id. I use a substr command on the 5th column to to cut the milli seconds off the time value. - otherwise the times would look like 08:30:04.235
grep <executionID> <auditfile> | awk '{ print $1, $2, $3, $4, substr($5,1,8}
FIX -> Mon 3/1/2010 08:30:04
FIX <- Mon 3/1/2010 08:32:36
FIX <- Mon 3/1/2010 08:35:08
[code].....
anyhow - i append two sed commands to further clarify the direction of the message.
awk '{ print $1, $2, $3, $4, substr($5,1,8} | sed -e 's/->/ ->IN/g' | sed -e 's/<-/<-OUT/g'
FIX -> IN Mon 3/1/2010 08:30:04
FIX <- OUT Mon 3/1/2010 08:32:36
[code]....
I tried using an awk gsub () command within the string instead of the two seds, but it did not work:
awk '{ print gsub(/<regex>/, <replace with>,$1), $2, $3, $4, substr($5,1,8}
the sed works ok, but it would be cooler to make the replacement within the awk command:
gsub(/->/,-> IN, $1)
Is there a way where i could replace the value of the $1 column in the awk print string?

I am trying to monitor how long an ldap search takes and maybe notify or something that a search takes longer than say 10 seconds.
Code:
tail -n 1000 /var/log/ldap.log
for SRCH in $( cat monitorldap.log |grep 'SRCH'); do
echo search string is
echo $SRCH
[Code]....
ok, so to start off with it doesn't appear to get the whole line, just a piece "Aug". How can I get the whole line into a variable so I can then cut it up into the pieces I need?

I am using Sun 5.9.
I am putting the value "Feb 10" in variable 'c' here.
Code:
-bash-3.00$ c=`date | awk '{print $2 " " $3}'`
-bash-3.00$ echo $c
Feb 10
But when I am grep-ing value of 'c', I am getting this error.
Code:
-bash-3.00$ ls -lrth | grep $c
grep: can't open 10
This is because there is a space between "Feb" and "10".

I have a dataset (see example below) that I would like to go through and copy all lines containing a certain string ("LGIG") plus the line immediately following that line to a new file. I have no problem grepping lines containing the string LGIG but I'm lost how to translate that to line number and shift up one line number for each instance of that string.
Example input file:

I have a mail.log file, of which I want to redirect only the search strings of the sender from=<example.sender@exampledomain.com> and the size size=4537 to a file.
In every case the sender string starts as from=<> and the size string starts as size=
What would be the grep command to redirect only the two search strings to a .txt file?

I've been trying to understand pthread in C a little better. So I made a simple program that takes in a string from the command line and creates a thread to print the string. I've looked online and copied the basic concepts but there are something things I'm confused about. The programs works just fine, but I have questions. Here's what I have so far.
[Code]....
One thing I'd like to know is why the 3rd argument in the pthread_create function which is my SendMessage function needs to be typecasted to a void pointer and then send the address of the function. Also as for the 4th argument, I would see typecasting to void pointer in some of the pthread examples I saw online, but in my case I'm passing a char pointer, would this be correct? In which case would I ever want to pass a void pointer?
Do I need a pthread_exit(NULL) in my main and in the SendMessage function? If so, why? I added the sleep() function so that I could let the pthread_exit function in my SendMessage function execute first. I simply saw that the online examples on pthread had pthread_exit() in both locations.

I have a requirement to find the files having its name as ack_reply. However, there are many other files in the same directory as these resides. Now I have to remove these files from the folder and retain others after 7 days. So I tried to write the below script with grep command.
find $directory -type f -mtime +7 | grep ack_reply
how can I pass this output to -exec command.
If I am not using grep command my script would be as
find $directory -type f -mtime +7 -exec remove.sh {}\;;
How can I use -exec with grep and find.

After typing "grep some_word" on terminal 6, the system doesn't do a thing, just lets me type endlessly. I've tried "Esc", "q" , [CTRL] + x, "exit" and no luck. I bet I'll kick my ass when you tell me but at the moment I can't figure it out. Rebooting would probably solve the problem but there must be a better way.

This has to also show the line count. I can get it to show the files but not the line count. What is the single command used to identify only the matching count of all lines within files under the /etc directory that contain the word „HOST? List only the files with matches and suppress any error messages.

When I used the find command, I almost always need to search the local drives. But, I almost always have super large network shares mounted and these are included in the search. Is there an easy way to exclude those in the find command, grep and other similar commands? Example:
find / -name .vimrc
