How I send clipboard to festival or what is wrong here? #!/bin/bash

echo '(voice_nitech_us_awb_arctic_hts) (SayText "$text")' | festival
Says only "dollar text" to me. Just this works, but I want other script with different voice: #!/bin/bash
xclip -selection clipboard -o | festival --tts Voice changed here: echo '(voice_nitech_us_awb_arctic_hts) (SayText "say this please")' | festival

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm setting up a machine that's going to be used to test randomly connected tape drives one at a time, and as such, I'm writing the test routine using mt in a bash script, for user-friendliness. The problem is the block device name changes on occasion as tape drives are swapped out and busses are rescanned, so I can't "hard code" a block name into the script.
I know programs like lsscsi and hwinfo will give you block device names as part of their output, but I can't seem to grep anything in such a way as to have the final output be just the block name (ie /dev/st2, or optimally 'st2'), so that I can just have the script read said output, and drop it into the necessary variable.
I have the following working script. It checks the directory for txt files, if files are there, it copies to another directory or gives error. I would like to exclude "file not found" errors and send them to /dev/null. All other errors should go to the email address as usual.
Code:
#!/bin/bash
function err
{
if [[ $? -ne 0 ]]

I'd like to have a Linux machine run what Windows users typically call a clipboard as a network service on my small LAN (about 10 machines). More specifically I am looking to have Linux run the clipboard service centrally in the LAN with both Windows and *nix machines able to connect to it as opposed to the peer-to-peer sync model that I am seeing in almost all of the applications I've discovered thus far.

I am working on an application in Motif and C++, which uses an XRT Table. With the XRT Table being an infrequently used product, it is hard to find good documentation on it, and one area in particular is sorely lacking... a good explanation on how to copy text from the table to the clipboard used by other X11 applications. I've come across an example application that demonstrates how to copy text to the clipboard, but I cannot seem to merge that knowledge with what I'm provided with the XRT Table API. Does anyone have any knowledge in using the XRT Table, and in particular, with copying selected fields within the table to the clipboard?

Now I'm trying to write a GUI version, using the same algorithm. Here goes a rough image of my main window code. If you scroll down you'll observe a coloured part. As you see, the text in the first textbox gets copied into clipboard. That is the part where my encryption system should encrypt the data in the clipboard, and copy it again, and later on the new data will be pasted. How am I supposed to write that?

Just recently I started using a cluster in my school to run some heavy tasks, which might require long periods to get done. The thing is that I can only send one task after the previous one has been completed (cluster use policies) and since I don't know in advance how much time each task will take, I'd like to have a way of knowing when one given task is already done (other than keep checking it).I am allowed to submit the jobs in bash scripts, so that's what I have at my disposal.

I open up 2 xterms on my desktop, A(/dev/pts/0) and B(/dev/pts/1).I can write from A to B using redirection e.g. echo "test" > /dev/pts/1How do I run a command from A on B? e.g. "clear"Basically I'm putting the 2 terminals side by side, and using terminal B to display the contents of the current working directory, by running the following in A:export PROMPT_COMMAND="ls -a > /dev/pts/1"but this fills up the screen pretty fast. I was actually looking for a way to clear up the second terminal.

How come code behaves normally and stops when ctrl+c signal is caught and resumes, but after I use at least one timeout read in the code it looks like, if signal is caught again it doesn't pause the execution but skips the loop. If you remove -t (timeout) option from the read, both loops look the same!

I have written quite a few separate bash & scripts and php scripts that up to now I have run from cron jobs. However I have to estimate how long each takes to run, before running the next and so it probably takes much longer than necessary to run them all. They have to run in order.
Now there are so many I am thinking it would be better to have a master bash script that would run one after the other, but I am not sure how to get the master script to wait before starting to run the next script. Is this possible and is there a command that will make the script wait between bash and php scripts , for them to finish, before running the next?
I'm trying to write a script that will continuously ping a server and then send out an email when the server is down, and then when it is back up. Then, continuing with monitoring. I would like to not run this in cron, because I don't want to script to run with multiple instances.
For example,
Ping a server every minute.
-If successful, do nothing.
-If failed to ping, then send out email stating that server is down.
-Once ping is successful, then send out email stating that server is up.
I only want it to send an email once after a failure, so the end user isn't get an email every minute that it fails. Once it is successful, then send the email (one time), stating that the server is up. Then, continue to ping and if fails again, repeat the process.
I would like to get the filename (without extension) and the extension separately. The best solution I found so far is:
Let FILE="thefilenameofsomefilesfor_instance.txt"
Code:
NAME=`echo "$FILE" | cut -d'.' -f1`
EXTENSION=`echo "$FILE" | cut -d'.' -f2`
I think it would be better to count the len and remove 3 chars to right to get the extension, but it can be macintosh filenames with have 4 chars for extensions.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have an Ubuntu 10.04 machine at home and apache setup on it (files are located in a Truecrypt volume). The reason for the web server being that I wanted to access my files wherever I'm at (i.e. hotel, work, hotspots, etc...). So far, it's worked out great for me seeing as a I can http download my files (or stream media files). However, I am often on a public hotspot and I know it's a matter of time before someone finds the webserver on my computer. I have the machine firewalled and password protected (via .htaccess), but either way I don't want people looking in on my computer.
The problem: I have used Truecrypt for a long time and completely trust using the program to encrypt/unencrypt a volume container to store my files. Usually, I would remote desktop into my computer and mount/unmount the volume when I needed it. However, after time it get's really annoying to do this. So I eventually figured out how to setup a bash script to automatically do this for me (which I put on the usb part of my phone). What I wanted to do was to be able send the bash script to my Ubuntu machine (via ftp from my phone) and have Ubuntu automatically run the script. Is this possible? What programs do I need on Ubuntu?
I was thinking about using something like cron, but that is for scheduled times. I don't really have a set time in which I need my files, it's pretty sporadic depending on how much I travel. Thus the need for being able to remotely mount the volume when I need it.
Summary: I need a way for Ubuntu to read a folder every minute or so to check for bash scripts to run. I want to be able to send the bash script via ftp from my phone, have Ubuntu run the script, then delete itself (so as to not store the password). I already know the script in which to mount the Truecrypt volume and how to send the file via ftp from my phone. It's really a matter of what program to use in Ubuntu to find and run the script.
I am currently doing a research on video transmission over wireless LAN. I tend to transmit my offline file (xx.svc) from server to client.It may sound stupid (since I have a very little knowledge about c programming and raw socket), but my biggest challenges is that when I want to write the file to the buffer, how actually to define/include the file at the programming coding? where I need to locate the file? Is it at the same folder with my c programming, or somewhere in the linuxinclude folder?
Can anyone just give a simple example on how to include a file and write it into a buffer before send it through raw socket.
this is my client and server. I can receive text file. but I can't send other type of file like PDF,Docx,Odt

I imagine some of my problem is being a C/C++ newbie, but is there anybody out there able to give me some hints? Maybe there is a different or better way to fork that process. My plan is to keep updating the buffer whose pointer is passed to the function process() with my serial port processing program in the main loop. I can protect it with a mutex during the festival_say_text() function, but otherwise it will be accessible.
