View 1 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to generate keyboard event "Ctrl+c" from a shell script code.? I have written a shell script to compile my application and copy it to the server home directory, inorder to run my application I need to start the server (by running a shell script). But before that I need to stop the the currently running instance of my server. To do that I have to generate a keyboard event (Ctrl+c which I press it manually). I want to automate the entire process by writing a shell script I am able to run the server just by adding ./run.sh in my shell script. But before that to stop my server can I generate a keyboard by using a shell script event(ctrL+C) to stop server.?
View 2 Replies View Relatedam working an a worksheet where I need to lookup id in an other worksheet.The script works as long as I am staying on the same row. When pressing key up or enter the corresponmding lookup information is not placed on the very same row.In short terms, I want the lookup data to be enterd on the same row no matter what key I am pressing.
The script:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim cfind As Range
On Error Resume Next
If Intersect(Target, Range("A:A")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
thisRow = ActiveCell.Row
[code].....
This example is set to Enter key procedure. So when the enter key is pressed, my current row will change by 1 so I have to compensate for that. All I want is that the data will be correctly enterd no matter what key I am pressing.
I have a program that receive user input.
I want to run this program automatically without user interaction, and in order to do that I need to simulate key events.
How can I do such a thing?
The program I am running is partly java and partly shell.
The shell part is easily done by using:
./prog.sh <parameters (Parameters being a file containing parameters)
But the java doesn't work similarly.
I want to capture short randomly occurring events such as Sudden Interstellar Disturbances, Lightning, ion counting, etc. To do this I wish to use the LINE-IN port. My sensor would feed a signal of less that 2 volts but could be submitted via a voltage divider. Since the sound card captures 44100 events per second this should capture events I am looking at, I think, but maybe not. I would capture the sound buffer to a string or memory buffer every second (and half second so I can prevent overwriting of its buffer, then merge the two).
Every 60 seconds (for validation) I would run "time" and count full buffer transfers in between to time events. By effectively counting characters from the beginning of the processing buffer to the beginning of the event I could further refine the "time to event". I think I could then save a decent number of values or until no data received from the processing buffer to preserve the event. This I would output with event time (to within 1/44100 sec) along with the data points captured to a file.
Except for the outputting of info to a file I think I can scan a buffer for events within a second (while LINE-IN continues capturing data on that port). I believe I have a way to handle the outputting. I am asking if any of the processing of the previous buffer would interfere with the sound cards data capture on LINE-IN? There would be no disabling of interrupts. I am presuming that system interrupts would not effect the LINE-IN data capture. Is this true?
Is there any way to prevent Flash from capturing all keyboard input? I'm really sick of not being able to ctrl+l or ctrl+tab just because I'm watching a video, and today a video froze in fullscreen mode and I couldn't even ctrl+f1 to any terminals or ctrl+backspace to kill KDE. It would be awesome to stop flash from grabbing certain key commands and pass them to the browser or OS instead.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a script which when invoked will generally su into being a number of different users (for those that have read other threads from me, you will know.I am building my own user based package management system).Whilst 75 - 80% of the time there will be no need to be anyone other than the original user, there are times when the root password is required. Currently this is presented to the administrator at exactly the point in the script that it is required.At times this may be more than once and it may also happen for multiple users in a row.
What would be the best / safest method (in your opinion) of capturing the password at the start of the script and then delivering it when required?I have looked at expect ( I am not at all familiar ), but on the examples dealing with passwords, that I could find, they all seem to store the password in a simple bash like variable (which does not excite me at all from a security point).I can also potentially go down the sudo road, but the issue here is that I would either have to find a list of commands that an entire group can have access to without passwords (doesn't sound safe) or I am back to square one of then requiring a password for each individual user to be entered, which if at the start would still need to be captured and saved until necessary.So as I have said, I am open to any and all (constructive) advice
How to write a shell script the would search for a phone no using at the end text file using sed or awk and store it in a varaible or print it.
The text file is in this form
The first line may take any form but the last line will always be Firstname Lastname:KEN:+254456789
I would like to seach for the Phone and store it in a variable and print it.
The phone no will alway be preceeded by ":+"
I would really like to capture the output of scp and my file's progress. Scp updates the transfer rate every 1 second, and I will like to save the transfer rate at every update. So for example, if the file transfer takes 30 seconds, I would like 30 reports of the transfer rate.
The output looks like:
Code:
file.dat 1% 3664KB 938.5KB/s 05:48
Whenever I try a simple redirect like:
Code:
scp file.dat 192.168.1.100:~/ &> output
... it does not save the rate at every update, it only shows the final rate.
If I try using typescript by starting "script" ... it's the same deal.
I'm creating my personal site in HTML/CSS and Perl/CGI. I have a list of links:
Quote:
<a name="link1" href="/cgi-bin/script.cgi">value1</a>
<a name="link2" href="/cgi-bin/script.cgi">value2</a>
<a name="link3" href="/cgi-bin/script.cgi">value3</a>
<a name="link4" href="/cgi-bin/script.cgi">value4</a>
<a name="link5" href="/cgi-bin/script.cgi">value5</a>
I want capture values of "value*" in <a> tags with script.cgi.
Why doesn't this work?
Code:
cat | myvar=$(</dev/stdin) <<EOS
This is some content
EOS
echo "$myvar"
i have also tried several variants of cat in place of the redirection.
Code:
$(cat -)
$(cat)
$(cat /dev/stdin)
None of the variants print "This is some content"
I have a version that works:
Code:
myvar=$(cat <<EOS
This is some content
EOS
)
echo "$myvar"
but i don't like the syntax and it doesn't play nice in my editor with code folding.
As we know, the data in /proc/net/dev fall into two categories -- the data received and the data transmitted. Now I want to calculate the network utilization, should the calculate be ---- (datareceived + datatransmitted - datareceivedlasttime - data transmitted last time)/ timeinterval?

View 11 Replies View Relatedi was wondering if in all the editors/tools in linux, if there was a prog that can extract a portion of a text file, giving it a starting line of say o as the first character on a line of say o35565 oxxxxx then when it finds the next line down the file with the same thing oxxxxwhatever
it could take those lines and all the lines between them and save it to another file? i dont know if you call this parsing? or what.

I was looking at my logs and was wondering what the easiest way to go about removing certain things from being logged.
For instance I noticed by default Ubuntu seems to log all network traffic and handshakes with wifi etc and I would like to keep such out of my logs.
I know about syslog and /var/log/* log files but I don't know what kind of events means particular problem.
E.g.
- hardware issues (?)
- security problem (/var/log/security)
[code]....
is there any way to trigger a command or script whenever a certain event happens in a application like firefox.or at least trigger a script on the launching of an application.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI just finished upgrading from 10.04 to 10.10 and converting from F-spot to Shotwell, including adding a large number of new photographs (>15 k).
On opening Shotwell today I found that all "tags" and "events", including those from the F-stop imported photos, have disappeared!! (strangely the photo ratings are maintained)
No amount of searching was able to relocate them. The modification date on the photo.db in the .shotwell folder is pre-problem, so I am holding out some hope that the relevant data have not been over-written.
I am not familiar with sql so do not know how to check the db (or restore the correct headers or whatever else is needed).
I want to separate the Apache2 Error log to log certain events in a specified file.
For example:
client denied by server configuration > denied.log
Directory index forbidden by Options directive > forbidden.log
I would like it add it to the logs as the events happen, and like the other logging systems, create new files when the current is full. i.e. denied.log.0
