Programming :: Sed Bash Command - Not Print Backslash In Perl
Jul 11, 2010This pretend to be a script for rename a lot of files automatically. So I put the list of files in an array named @lista. But, as you can see, at the end of the command I use a sed filter to print out a backslash for those files that have spaces in their names, so the path for those files could be rightly interpreted.
But there's no way I could print a backslash. It works well when I use the Perl's sed substitution s///, but I need every path in the array to be fixed.
I'd like to add that the bash command works perfectly well alone. I mean outside the Perl script.
This is de command line with the sed filter:

Programming :: Using An Awk Command To Print A Line From A Cvs File?
Mar 4, 2011I am using an awk command to print a line from a cvs file.the awk command includes an if statement that filter the output-lets say i want to print all the lines that the price field is greater than 30.i have it working when i put the parameters myself.. but when i try to send them with vars it wont work..i am sending the sign of the if statement - can only be: == , < , >it looks like this:
cat file.csv | awk -v sign=">" -v field="2000" '{if($3 sign field) printf "%-12s%-12s%-12s%-12s
",$1,$2,$3,$4}' FS=,
the bold part is the problem , because when i put the sign parameter myself t works great.. i guess its a chars issue but i cant spot it

Jul 24, 2010I have a laptop that I am in through SSH. The laptop does not have an Xwindow system so I am using the program fbi to open an image on my laptop screen from my SSH connection:
fbi -T 8 picture.jpg #this opens the image on the laptops tty8 terminal
I've found that making a for loop does not work with files that contain a space in the name. Something to due with a bug that they call a "feature" that stops the first variable at the first whitespace.
Using a "while" loop is not exactly what i require either seeing as I want to be able to view each image in the directory on screen and tag it accordingly, before it jumps off to the next image, and I'm not sure how to add a pause to a while loop.
How do I make a Bash script and loop Variables handle files like "files that contain spaces.jpg"

Mar 26, 2011Using awk I pull the first field of a random line from my datafile.myvar1=`awk -F" " 'NR=='$randline' {printf "%s", $1}' myfileThis works fine. The problem is there will be empty lines at the end of the file. Rather than using awkto filter out blank lines I would like to figure this out first.So I test $myvar1 for a blank string after setting $randline to one that I know is blank:test -z "$myvar1" && echo "true" || echo "false"But, this returns "false"? So the string is not zero length. Why? It's a tab-separated file. Is awk storing the tab with the $1 field or something.This is where I get headache. I try to echo my variable to see what it looks like.
echo "$myvar1"
outputs: nothing
echo "My variable is [$myvar1]"
outputs: [y variable is [
Why is the closing bracket at the beginning? What character could be stored in $myvar1 that would do such a thing and how did it get there?
Programming :: Bash To Monitor IP Addresses In A Txt File?

ALT="0" #For styling alternative row

I need to add a feature such that instead of hardcoding the ip address .. it takes them from a list and makes new files for each ip address for logging.. And also when log files are completed , They should be compressed using tar. How should i go about adding both these.. This is my first bash script.
Programming :: BASH Read File Once Then Return To Top?
Aug 8, 2010I have a script that reads part of a line, delimited between the first and second intended part by a colon. Then it "chops" the part after the colon, which are words offset by commas (counting them beforehand so as to catch every word in the string's second part), like this:
Code:
"COLORS.JPG:red,orange,yellow,green,"
(Returning)
red
[code]....
single script that parses/breaks both parts of a line like this "COLORS.JPG:red,orange,yellow,green;blue,indigo,violet," so that the two parts, separated into single words (or two and three words, sometimes with spaces) can be used as single-line annotations and written to JPEG files using Exiv2. So far, I haven't been able to come up with a script that does this without one part of the total string(usually that part after the colon) becoming the first word in the second array. In other words, I look for this:
KEYWORDS:
[ ]red
[ ]orange
[ ]yellow
[code]....
Or vice-versa (ie, the second array winds up as a single-line "member" of the first). I think it's because I'm using a single while read loop to read the text file in which the filenames and substrings happen to be. If there's some way of reading a file once and going back to the beginning to read it again in another while loop, I haven't found it.
Programming :: Bash - Read File Without Whitespace?
Mar 14, 2011I am struggling with Bash scripting at the moment (I can't seem how anyone can write scripts with this language!!!) I have a need at home to have a cron job execute daily to lookup my downloads.txt file, read each url (per line) and download content from that url. Then that entry needs to be removed (well I keep all urls in memory and clear the file afterwards). If an error occurred during the download process, then the url is written to a downloads.err file. I got all the above working except for properly reading the url from the text file without including newline characters. I am using the following to read:
while read url; do
--Do whatever here--
done < downloads.txt
How can I get it not to let the url variable have newline characters?

Programming :: Bash Script To Locate A Specific File?
Jun 14, 2010I'm new to bash scripting and I've searched around the forums and Internet for this but haven't had any luck. I've found similar things but not what I need. What I need to do is write a simple script that uses what the user inputs to locate and display where a file is. I would prefer to use locate instead of find since I know that the person I am writing this for has locate on her machine (my mom, who is just beginning with Linux).I'm writing the script to make things easier for her while she learns In this particular part of the script I would like to be able to have the script prompt to enter the file she is searching for, read the her input and then display for her where the file is. I realize it would in most cases be much simpler just to teach her how to use locate, but she is very impatient and this is just a part of the script I will be writing, but I can't figure out how to do this.

for l in $LINES ; do

it is possible to map stdout to $LOG in the outer loop without having to redirect every subsequent individual command output?
