I wrote some bash code to prevent redundantly including files, like php's "include_once". I've simplified it here so don't worry that it appears not to do anything:
Code: alias .='Include'
alias source='Include'
export __INC__functions=1

I'm writing a bash shell script that among various other things will traverse through a directory with hundreds of files and rename those who match a pattern found in a config file. It's expected that only about one in ten files will actually match, and those who don't, will simply just be ignored for this purpose.
This should for instance cause the file "dBase program file December 1987.prg" to be renamed "Clipper source code December 1987.prg", and conversely "C++ source August 1996.cpp" to be renamed "C source code August 1996.cpp" etc.A sample file such as "Random Data File.dat" should not be renamed here since it's not mentioned in the config file..What is the quickest, most elegant way to do this in bash?I am thinking of using bash's built-in regex matching combined with the /bin/rename utility, but don't quite know how to get started to catch this..I guess there are plenty ways of doing this in perl and elsewhere as well, but since this has to integrate into a pre-existing bash script, that's what I'm looking for.Anyone out there with a spare moment to offer a hint in the right direction?
I'm trying to make my program as small as possible. Currently it's down to 17.8 KB, but I'd like to get it smaller (I know, I'm insane). Is there a way to not use the "#include" directive to include the entire header, but rather to just load only the stuff I need? For example, I just want to include 'sprintf' and 'printf' from stdio.h, not the entire header. Is this possible? Or am I misunderstanding some fundamental element here?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have been scripting (or programming) in Bash shell for around 2+ years now. I have heard that ksh and zsh are better shells than bash. Are there any differences on the scripting side too, I mean is it easier to write a script in ksh or zsh rather than bash? Is there any benefit to code in ksh or zsh instead of bash.

I want to write Bourne-shell script that will be to do finding and replacement in any web page code (.htm file) name of the tied folder in which have been saved pictures, .css, .js and other files. This folder create a web browser when we save web page completely and has so name as web page and has ending '_files'. I have many web pages where name of their folder are incorrect. Of course, my web browser shows these web pages without pictures. I can count amount of web pages in a folder (/path) needed for me.
1) find /path -type f -name "*.htm*" -print | grep -c .htm or find /path -type f -name *.htm | wc -l I can get list of web pages.
2) ls /path *.htm > out-list But I don't know how to assign the value from out-list (2) or result commands from pipeline (1) to a variable. Then I want to do next:
3)
var="1"
# where variable 'list' is an amount of web pages
while [ $var -le $list ]
[code]....
4)assign the 1st (then 2nd , etc. ) value from out-list (2) to variable 'webfile'
sed -n $var,+0p out-spisok
5)find the 1st string value '_files' in the 'webfile' grep -m1 _files $webfile
6)For example, 'abracadabra_files' is an incorrect folder in the 'webfile' I must to know start and end position 'abracadabra' without ending '_files', "cut" name of the incorrect folder and assign it to the variable 'finder' finder = 'abracadabra' BTW, name of a folder before '_files' is between '="' and '_files' in any web page code.
7)foldernew = $webfile (without '.htm')' foldernew' is equal with name of the tied folder without ending '_files' in the folder '/path'
8)find and replace in the 'webfile' and save result in the 'webfile-out'sed s/$finder/$foldernew/g $webfile > $webfile-out
I have read where C is first converted to Assembly before its final compilation to binary. Is there a way to do this with Bash commands? I would like the understanding that Assembly allows to Bash somehow.

I have downloaded lzo-2.00 package and have installed it linux kernel 2.6 version. Now I want to include the lzo library in the source code of linux.According to the instructions given in the package, I have copied the files (minilzo.c,minilzo.h,lzoconf.h,lzodefs.h)in the source directory(/mm),added minilzo.o to my Makefile and have included(#include minilzo.h) from my program. But when I compile the kernel,I am getting errors.

I need to basically add some code to like 50 php files. It's basically a script that I want to add near the end of these 50 php files. I figured I could use sed to replace </body> with the code. However the code, is very long and has a bunch of newlines obviously. How would I be able to do this?
sed -e 's/<//body>/(all the text)/' *.php
Since it has newlines, I don't know how to paste it in cause it would take me to a '>' prompt without allowing me to complete the sed command. I want to insert this code.
Code:
<br><br>
<center>
<form action="test.php" method=post>
<textarea name="comments" cols=40 rows=6>

since some days I have a strange problem with KMail (1.13.5) in KDE4.5.5. When I try to copy some text from an email and past it to any other program (e.g. Openoffice), not only the marked text will be pasted, but a kind of HTML code including the text.
This bug is not OpenSuse specific. I found the same bug in a Fedora mailing list (of course, whithout an answer): Strange Copy/Paste behavior in KMail 1.13.5/Kontact 4.4.8
I have a lot of filenames (strings) following the same convention
m02_+1+7_London_0000$01.cfg
m02_+1+8_London_0000$01.cfg
m02_+1+8_London_0000$01.cfg
[code].....
What I want to do is to create a script that will interpret the following string and save into variables part of its name
m02_+1+7_London_0000$01.cfg as
------X-Y--City---------
X=1
Y=7
City=London
[code]....
then I want to copy the files that go all the files with the same City and X and Y to the same subfolder City/MX.Y I will need some help start doing that. And I think the first would be to get part of the filenames strings into variables.
I am trying to find a nightly backup if it was successfully copied over, rename it and curl, but it's always passing the check even if the file is older than specified. From the command line it does as it should. Example is here;

I'm making a small script for searching and doing some operations with photos, but I'm kinda stuck on this little function:
Code:
function findallformat {
prefix=""
if [ $1 = -pre ] then
[code]....
That function should find for every file with a certain type; and you can specify a prefix using a "-pre" followed by the prefix that you want to search. The format should be "stackable", so you can use as many types that you want, without repeating the same function on the code.
Example: findallformat -pre IMG_ .JPG .CR2 #That should search files that start with "IMG_" and finishes with .JPG and .CR2. My problem it's that, when I try to use it on the script, it says "bash: syntax error near `token' unexpected `}'"
I want to catch some outputs in two different log files in bash, file simple.log and all.log So far, the script is started like this:
Code:
xterm -e "(./myscript.sh | tee -a simple.log) >& all.log"
What I want is:
- In simple.log, I want all the stdout but WITHOUT errors.
- In all.log I want BOTH stdout and stderr.
So all is ok, and the output becomes:
all.log
Code:
starting copying files
mv: cannot move ... : permission denied
copying completed
simple log
Code:
starting copying files
copying completed
But, in the new xterm, I'm loosing stdout. There is no output.How can I have the files logged as they are but also have the stdout in the xterm.
I'm trying to rename a lot of files getting rid of the space on the names. For that purpose I wrote this very simple bash script, but for some reason is not working.
Code:
for i in "$(ls)"
do
j=$(echo "$i" | sed 's/ /_/g')
mv "$i" "$j"
done But what I get in return for each line is just one long file name with all the file names concatenated. I've tried with echo -e "$i" as well with no results. This has to be something really simple that I'm missing but I just can't see it.
I am trying to write a simple script to list all the files in a directory. The script I wrote was as below where the pdb_files is a directory and all the files which I want to list are in that folder.

View 5 Replies View RelatedHow can I iterate over all the files in the current directory to check for certain permissions? This is what I have:
Code: #!/bin/bash
for file in *.tar.gz
do if [ -r "$file" ]
then echo "$file is readable"
else echo "$file is NOT readable"
fi done
But this only checks that the current user has read permissions for each file. I want to check that the group "others" has read permissions for each file. How can I do this? Is there a built in function to check if a file has read permissions for the "others" group? Otherwise, I thought I might be able to use this:
Code: $ stat --format=%a file
744 And parse the output "744" and make sure the 3rd number is between 4 and 7 (since the octals 4-7 have read permissions for others).
I'm building my first BASH programs and I have a hard time. I can't do a search in a folder and filter only script files without extension, the problem is to differentiate the script files from the others. I tried with ls I tried with find and i don't find a way to make it work.

The script needs to add two lines to the beginning of each file based on the file name, and one line to the end of the file.A file named myfile.h should add these two lines to beginning of the file:
