Is there a command which can be used to run some other command on a few lines from a file or an o/p of some file. (the kind of role that -exec option does for the find command). (I have solved the purpose using a bash loop but would like to know if there exists a command).

I have a large CSV file, tab-delimited with CRLF at the end of each line. Each line should contain 5 fields (i.e. NF == 5) However, there are rogue CRLF characters in the middle of some records, causing records to be split across two lines. I want to scan each line, check the field count and if it's !=5 then join that line to the following line. Example input might be;

I've got a website set up which has a section which is just a bunch of links on the side. But this section of links is on every page of the website. And when I expand and add more links I don't want to have to go to every page and add the new link. Is there a way that I could put all the links into something on CSS (or anything else) that I could just include one line in the HTML? So that when I add a link I'll only have to edit the one file and and then every page will be updated?

I have a CDL netlist with 5630 lines. 512 of the lines are over 128 characters. The tool I am using to read in the CDL returns an error for each line over 128 characters.
If the line is too long I can fix it by adding a line continuation symbol, in this case a "/", somewhere prior to the 128th character then a line feed, obviously, and a "+" to the continuation.
example (pretend its a long line);
before;
this line is too long
after;
this line /
+ is too long
Part of the problem is that I can't use a constant point prior to the 128th character because I can't break up a term.
bad;
this line i /
+ s too long
If I can replace the last space before the 128th character with " / + " on all lines that are over 128 characters then I'm golden. I'm not sure if I need to escape the + or not. If so then the substitution is " / + ". And if I use sed then I'll escape the .
So For example I run this command:
Code:
But want to gerp / cut it in such a way that it only displays
Code:
Now the thing is that these 3 lines are not static.. there can be N number of lines there.. the only thing is that I want the command / output NOT to display the first line but the rest of the n lines ..
