Is there a valid way, or trick to move the EOF indicator of a file? For example the file contains the data:
Code:
I am asking question.
0123456789
This is the example content of the file.
End is after the period.
I want to move the EOF after the number 9 so that when I read the file it will now contain:
Code:
I am asking question.
0123456789
Is this possible? Language to use is C.
My problem is that in the System Tray, my Wifi indicator won't move. It is stuck to the upper-right hand corner. When I right-click on it, there is no "Move" option. I provided a picture to show where it's stuck.
I am using Ubuntu 10.10 32-bit with a GNOME Environment.
Initially I thought - use a for loop with ls in it:
Code:
However this causes lots of problems (folders have extensions, I have duplicate folders, the names with spaces create a folder for each element of the name).
The contents of the folder is basically movies (some with subtitles). Some of the names have things like (original) or CD1 CD2 in them.

I've got a bash script I'm using to download a text file list of links via axel. What I'd like to do is automate the movement of completed links in the for loop when axel has successfully completed the download. This is what I've got. I can figure that I can just echo append the line to a new file, but what is the easiest way to delete the line with the link I just downloaded?
Code:
#!/bin/bash
for i in $( cat $1); do
axel --alternate --num-connections=6 $i
export RC=$?

I thought I was removing the chat status piece of the indicator applet (I know what it is now, didn't then), but I accidentally removed the whole thing. Now when I figured out how to put it back on the panel, I can't get it back to where it was (which was to the RIGHT of the system date/time applet). How can I do this as well as move the indicator applet that has the volume control in it?

View 9 Replies View RelatedCurrently I have an issue with a html page with css layout. I use div blocks to visualize servers within a blade enclosure on a html page. Some servers are fullsize, others are halfsize. The css layout looks ok unless the second row misses some elements. I would need a div that I can use as placeholder so that neighbor divs are placed in the right column. Those placeholder divs should be overlapped by divs from row1 that are bigger in size.
Example: For example if bay 3 and 4 of row1 are occupied by a fullsize blade, 2 divs in 3 and 4 will be missing. The result is that the divs that should be displayed in bay 5 and 6 are placed in bay 3 and 4 instead of bay 5 and 6 where they would belong. Because the "empty space" divs are non overlapable, the "fullsize" divs from row1 column 3 and 4 are truncated. They should span to the second row and the "empty space" divs in row2 column 3 and 4 should move right to column 5 and 6.
Code:
Erronous:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
ROW1[L][x][L][L][x][x][L][L]
ROW2[L][ ][x][x]......[L][L]
Correct:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
ROW1[L][x][L][L][X][x][L][L]
ROW2[L][ ][L][L][x][x][L][L]
[code]....
As this html page is automatically generated once a day, I need to use something like a div placeholder as I cannot easily modify the position of an individual element.
I'm in the midst of making a perl script and I was wondering if it was possible, to say, have a folder with 20 files in it, then move 5 files out of there, into a new one. I would like to to do this until the original folder has no more files in it, but I'm very stuck.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if it's possible to move the known_hosts file from ~/.ssh/known_hosts to ~/somewhere/.ssh/known_hosts . I have a server running Plesk and the user home directories do not have write permissions (they do have write permissions within the subfolders, however).
I was able to move the authorized_keys file by editing sshd_config AuthorizedKeysFile , but when I try to log in without password, I'm still prompted every time if I want to add the host to list of known hosts, and it fails to save every time since it cannot write to known_hosts. Thus I am still unable to automate some processes. I'd like known_hosts to be located in the same location as my authorized_keys, which does have correct permissions for users.
I'm trying to move certain files to Trash using File Browser. I continually get this message:"Cannot move file to trash, do you want to delete immediately?"I am logged in under my user name; I (my user name) am the owner of these files; ALL permissions are on (rwx for owner, group, and other); and Trash is empty. Still I get this message.

I've tried a number of suggestions found on the internet and none of them work. Here's one:Code:mv "$x" ~/.Trash/...where $x is the pathname of the file passed to the script.I've also tried different paths to Trash - on Desktop, in Home folder, in my user folder, it makes no difference. Either nothing happens, or more often, the file is simply copied to my desktop or userfolder with the name "Trash".What is the actual path to the Trash folder and how can I move files there? I'm using Ubuntu 10.04.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a script that checks a folder for zip files than moves them to a different folder. I want to check every 5 maybe 10 seconds and since cron is setup to run at least a 1 minute increment I'm not sure how to do that time check as probably a loop within the script. One other thing is once the time check is in the script how would a cron job be setup to run this script? Once the script is running cron doesn't need to run it again, is there a feature to check if it's running and if it's not then run it?
find /export/xxxshare -name "*.zip" -exec mv {} /export/store ;
I have two servers on my network (at home). Let's call them A and B.
I have a small shell script that I have written on server A that zips up a file, backs up a database. It's triggered by cron once a day.
After I run it, I would like to move this file from server A to server B.
As I said, both are on the same network (in the same room, actually), and so obviously have different network IPs.
What are my options to move these files? It would need to be something that was done in perhaps a shell script that was, like the shell script that zips the files, is triggered by a cron job.
I'm assuming there are actual applications for this sort of theng (rsync?), but can it be done with a shell script? It seems very simple and basic...
How might this be done?
Systems:
Server A - CentOS v. 5
Server B - RHEL v. 4
