I want to change some HTML in my files (80+ so I prefer not to do this by hand). I got a script to replace a string in files, however the HTML I want to replace contains an enter (and tab of 4 spaces) (explanation below) Does someone know how I could update my HTML by using a function in Linux?
I also found sed but don't know how to use it with the enter (linenumbers will not work because they variate)...
[Code].....
I often use the rpl command to make changes to multiple html files at once. For example:
rpl -R '<br />' '<br /><br />' mydirectory However, I haven't been able to figure out how to change multiple lines. For example, let's say I want to change all occurrences of :
<br />
<br />
to:
<br />
I've tried
rpl -R '<br />
<br />' '<br />' mydirectory
but that didn't work. how to do this with rpl or some other way?
Here is the deal: my school purchased a test prep which they distributed to us, the only problem is that it is for windows. When I try to run the exe in wine the program windows pops up but the screen is blank (i can see the menu bar and and the title bar). It appears that most of the information is located in a folder as html files (separated into chapters for each section) with links to all the figures/tables/questions
(also html files). This morning I have been trying to find a way to compile the html files into a format that I can read without having to hunt for each individual html file. I tried navigating with firefox but had to change each individual link before I could do that (very time consuming), I tried using doxygen (the GUI front end) to convert it to Latex/rtf/html/xml (all the formats) but did not have any success (It could be that I am using the app wrong). I tried opening some java applications found within the application data folder in hopes that it would bring up the navigator without success. And even tried installing java in wine (unsuccessfully) to see if that was the missing key to run the program in wine.
My question is, do I just have to fork out the $500+ that it would cost me to purchase the books instead of using the school provided program (free to us)? or is there a relatively simple way to compile these files into a format that could be readable.
tl;dr - have multiple html files for a windows native program that won't run on wine that I would like to convert to a more easily readable format (i.e. chm, pdf, etc), is it possible?the program was legally acquired through my school, I did not download or pirate it. I am not looking to distribute it, just looking to use it for my own studying purposes without spending $500+ or buying a windows license/computer.
I am trying to replace a string (url) in 100s of files located in different directories. I found the sed command but cannoy get it to work. First I locate the files that have the string in them:
Code:
grep -ilr 'url' *
this works correctly and displayed the location of the files that have the string:
Code:
1/index.php
2/index.php
Now I need to replace the string so I combined it with sed:

I have a file with the following in it:
:0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X -nobanner
:1 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X
I need to add "-nolisten tcp" to both of these lines and cannot figure out how to do it. I can get it to do the first one, but not the 2nd and so on. How do I search the file and loop though it to change them all?
After hours (literally) of searching the web and reading man pages, I think I've come up with the following:Code:find . -exec grep 'path/to/file' -print | xargs -0 -I new_path mv {this is where I get confused}So my code above is incomplete, obviously. In order to finish replacing the string, I need to mv the new file into the old file's spot. How do I do this, by incorporating it into my line of code?
View 14 Replies View RelatedHello, I need some help searching through multiple files, finding a line and replacing that line. The line I am searching for is:
password key ******* 1222554
ultimately I want to be able to delete the numbers after the asterisks . my thoughts are to create a script that will search for the line password key ******* and delete it then replace it with password key ******* my files are located in /opt and they are all txt files.
I'm pretty sure this is doable from the command line, but my CLI skills have degraded a lot since my pre-Y2K admin days. The goal is to search all the files in the directory for a very long string of text and replace it with another string of text. The text being searched for is my Google Adsense code (which will be stripped from my website) and it will be replaced with a placeholder so I can easily tack something else in there in the future.
Seeing how I have that long snip of code on about 100 pages, automating the process would make life easier.
If I was searching for a single word, I can see ways to do this.
If I paste the code I'm searching for into a text file, is there a way to:
find (contents of oldstring.txt) and replace with (contents of newstring.txt)?
I found this command that works great finding and replacing a simple string to another in files located in that folder and all sub-folders.
Code: find . -name '*.php' | xargs perl -pi -e 's/OldText/NewText/g'
The problem I have is that I need to replace a more complex string, like this: Old string: /mnt/stor6-wc2-dfw1/627896/982574/ New string: /mnt/stor8-wc2-dfw1/369587/302589/ There I don't know how to do it... since the / is what separates the old from the new strings, and the strings that I want to replace have / in it. Also, I would like to know how to specify under what folder replace the files, for example, I want that it search/replaces all files under /var/www/mysite/htdocs folder.
Code:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>

Alright this works fine to pull the directories/files in the /var/Store/2010/ directory.
But when you click on of the links it tries to http://'serveradress'/$filename
note that $filename in the url is the filename clicked on so the php script is working. but I need it to change to that dir so that you can see the folder/files there and work your way up/down/side wise thru the folder tree to where you need to go. Not try and pop it as a direct url which doesn't work.
I cannot get some html files on my pc to render properly, Epiphany and Iceweasel show some non-latin characters as garbage but shows others of the same language correctly although Gedit shows the same files, with or without the html code, correctly. I have all the locales installed. Can someone point me to a solution? I am misleading you when I say "garbage", it is always a pair of question marks.

what is the best way (i.e standard way that is supported on all browsers and probably as well followed by web crawlers).... to include an html file either locally or externally in another ? Of course , i've done the research and i also know that there are server side includes (php , asp ...you name it) at the moment , i'm using this:
Quote:
<script type="text/javascript" src="path to file/include-file.js"> </script>
however, i've been warned that this method may not show up in some browsers as some tend to ignore this tag and that crawlers like your favorite search engine wouldn't bother reading this. so , what is the best and safest way to do the job? and btw , the reason why i've ousted SSI's from the start is because of among other things:
1) the fact that the included file is static html and because the text is included pretty much everywhere
2) hoping to reduce load time as the code (if successfully recognized) would hopefully be treated like any other embedded external file (e.x like an image) , therefore it would be cached without the need to downloaded it over and over again for each new page on the site.
I've been playing around with sed but can't find a way to remove the <br> html tag and replace it with a newline. Sed isn't truly needed awk or other suggestions could be good.

I use a mencoder line to convert .avi to .mpg (dvd player compatible), it works well but i can only do one file at the time. It requires giving the input and output directories and the files name. I tried using (*.avi *.mpg in the command) on the directory but it just add up all the .avi and convert them into one huge .mpg. My goal is to have a script that would convert all the .avi files from a directory to the same amount of .mpg and also keep the naming of those files. Here is what i work with on single files:
Code:
mencoder -oac lavc -ovc lavc -of mpeg -mpegopts format=dvd -vf scale=720:480,harddup

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a folder which includes bunch of folders each having data files in them. [ Folder A has F1, F2 F3 ..... F1000 folders in it, and F1, F2, F3 ... each has about 10 different files named FILE 1, FILE2, FILE3 .... in them.
I am interested in File 1 of each Folder, because that contains the data I need in it. More specifically, that File1 s have a line "ANSWER=..." in them, and i need to get that value of the ANSWER from each file.

I have written FORTRAN code to calculate density profile. This code will open two files ( topology and x,y,z trajectory). The trajectory file contains XYZ data coordinates for multiple frames (about 20 or 100 frames for instance). One frame contains 20736 data.
Previously this code was written to open ONLY one input XYZ data file and do the calculation and would dump the results in separate file and it was running without problem. Recently my data file get bigger in size, so I decided to break the single XYZ data file into few small parts.
Now I have modified the code so that it calls the parts of the XYZ data files ( eg: maltoTHERMO_10Frames.traj, maltoTHERMO_20Frames.traj,... and so on) and do the calculation and dump the results in the same result output file. I have tested this code just with openning the XYZ coordinates and printing into another file to see wheather it collecting the data sequently and it was working fine.
This code supposedly read the x coordinate data and calculate distance and put a count accoding the criteria in the approperiate bins. But when I let the code to do the calculation it stop and shows error. (I have indicated as !** in the code). If I enable this line, it shows error but if I disable this line, than the code do collect only the XYZ coordinates.
The code is as below:
Code:
module all_parameter
integer,parameter :: MAXATOM=20736!CHANGE
integer,parameter :: midwater=1500
integer,parameter :: TOTALFRAMES=20

I'm trying to change a group of cpp files to one shared lib. I have created a shared lib with a single file. I then did this with a group of files. The difference in what I'm doing is that before with the single file, .a, was added into a single .o file. Now I'm trying to add it to my main.cpp file which is NOT a .o file. I'm now getting these compiler errors from the main.cpp where is doesn't seem to recognize the semaphores.Example Error: undefined reference to `sem_wait'If I were not to use the share libs this compiles and runs as I expected it to.Something tells me this is a compiler flag issue, at least I hope it is
