I am having some difficulties with an expect script. What I want is that as soon as expect sees a newline followed by a dollarsign ($), that interact is done. So I would expect something like this to work:
Code:
"
$" { interact }
However it doesn't.
This is debugging output:
Code:
expect: continuing expect
expect: does " " (spawn_id exp6) match glob pattern "#"? no

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 need to output of a script to a file with tags.
I'm trying sed and was able to put a tag on the end of the line

I'm thinking of I redirect my first sed command to a file and then use sed again to put <group> at the beginning of the line. My problem is how to put <group> to all beginning of the string.
I try to do a function which removes '#' from beginning of line. But if there is not '#' then add it on beginning of line. I try something like this, can you correct me?
Code:
awk '
!/^#/{ sub(/^[^#]*/,"#$0","'$line'")
}
/^#/{ sub(/#/,"","'$line'")
}'
I am writing an expect script. At a certain point there is a rule that produces this debugging output:
Code:
expect: does " Address or name of remote host [x.x.x.x]? " (spawn_id exp8) match glob pattern " Address or name of remote host [x.x.x.x]? "? no This just times out When I use -exact for the expect keyword it does work What am I doing wrong? THe first should also match in my opinion because it is equal as well. Even if I remove the I still have the same issue if I try without -exact. I don't understand. I tried removing the but still got the same.
Does any one know what syntax i could use to allow me to replace all instances at the beginning of a line with ones.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to add something at the end of each line, from line 4 to line 8, in vim? How can i do that? I know adding at the beginning is like: 4,8: normal: i# What i want to add contains special characters ( here it is: <br/> ) , in case that matters.
I want to add tabs at the beginning of each line, from line 6 to line 12. How?
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 am trying to create a shell script where a user can specify a file with a list of logins and the script will create a batch file with specific information in specific columns.
Example:
loginfile.txt has
User1
User2
User3
I need the output to be as below:
1 User1 Date 12/31/9999
2 User2 Date 12/31/9999
3 User3 Date 12/31/9999
Where the columns are separated as below.
1[tab][tab]User1[tab]date +%D[tab]12/31/9999
2[tab][tab]User2[tab]date +%D[tab]12/31/9999
3[tab][tab]User3[tab]date +%D[tab]12/31/9999
I can use the nl utility to get the numbers easily enough, but I need two tab separations between the number and the user list. Is there a sed command that will insert at the beginning of each line? If so I can just run nl after I get some tabs up in the front.
I need to find each line in a file which does NOT begin with a double quote (") and append that line to the previous line. I have been successful doing this using the following command:
cat filname.csv | sed -e :a -e '$!Ns/
[^"]//;ta -e 'P;D' > newfilename.csv
My issue is the substitution. As you would expect after the line is appended to the previous line the first character is removed. I need it to not be removed. I tried:
cat filname.csv | sed -e :a -e '$!Ns/
[^"]/&/;ta -e 'P;D' > newfilename.csv
but it just hangs.
Goal:
Input:
"line 1"
line 2
Output with existing sed command is:
line 1ine2
I need it to be line1line2.

I'm using expect to log into a remote server and run a script. I want to able to have expect edit the output from that script, on the remote server, in VI. Has anyone ever done this before, it seems as though the expect interpreter has nothing to expect once VI is started, the file pointer starts at the beginning of the line, and expect usually reads the characters before the pointer.
spawn ssh user1@$remote_server
expect "password: "
send "$password

I'm reading a text file with fscanf using a loop until feof(inFile). How can I return to the top of the file? As in I have one loop that scans until the eof and then after it there's another loop and I want to start from the beginning of the file again scanning to the end of it. How do I get back there?

I wrote an expect script that tests user authentication against a RADIUS server. The username is an email address, including an @ sign. I recently wrote an HTML/PHP front end to allow others to input username/password into a form and then see the results when they hit submit. Expect code that takes two args username, and password
Code:
expect "#"
send "test aaa group radius [lindex $argv 0] [lindex $argv 1] new-code
"expect "#"

Every works as it's supposed to, except for the output of the script. When it displays on the webpage, it's segmented weirdly with all throughout. What I've found is when I remove the @ sign in the username input, it fixes it. Is there any part of HTML or PHP that treats the @ as a special character? 1 more thing is that I have another HTML/PHP/EXP script that works fine with the @.
I am starting a new job, and need to brush up on my expect scripting. does anyone know of any online resources, e.g. telnet sites that I can play about with?

I've had all kinds of different results and problems, but I've never been able to successfully log into multiple servers, though the first server in the list most times works okay (though might not on this iteration). I'm a bit hack and slash and I would be very greatful not only for a solution, but any tips on how I should have done this and places where I could clean up my code.
I want to write a function in expect/tcl which logins into a router. but the syntax is a little confusing .

case 2: router prompts for "login" .. {we put in username and password .. if they are incorrect we try with another username and password. if we succeed into getting a prompt we return 1 .. if both username passwords are wrong or we time out we return 0 }

I am working with a Tcl script and have some strings in the following format (RE):
[a-zA-Z]+[0-9]{6}-[0-9]
There are some leading letters, combinations of capital and lowercase. Then six digits, followed by a hyphen, then one more digit. I would like to remove all of the leading alphabetic characters from the string. The resulting string would then be in this format: [0-9]{6}-[0-9]. In other words, six numeric digits, a hyphen, then one more digit.
I have tried:
Code:
set newstr [string trimleft $origstr alpha]
But that only removes the first alphabetic character, not all of them.
I couldn't get anything with regsub to work correctly, but I am somewhat of a noob with RE's in general and regsub in particular. There are usually 5 leading letters at the beginning of these strings, and I could in most cases get away with using string replace and constant indices to extract the substring. However, my preference is for this to be robust enough to handle all cases with 1 through n leading alphabetic characters.
I am working on an expect script to login into a server and copy few wars across the folders. But when i execute it I am getting the following error:
[exec] loginServer.sh: spawn: not found.
[exec] loginServer.sh: expect: 0403-006 Execute permission denied.
[exec] send: -- unknown
The first line is : #!/usr/bin/expect -f.Is this anything to do with server setting or configuration that doesn't allow spawn??
