Programming :: Sort Files In Directories Based On Files Date
Sep 8, 2009I need a script that will take all the files in a given directory and create new monthly sub-directories and sort all the files based on the creation date into the appropriate directory.For example, all files created between 01/01/09 and 01/31/09 will be placed in 'JAN-2009'

Feb 14, 2011I have been searching for a solution to the following problem:
When my distro of choice updates Firefox web browser, the directory name is '/usr/lib/firefox-<version>'.
The problem here is that the directory name is dynamic by nature and doesn't allow a simple static solution, e.g.
'cp -rf /usr/local/files/bookmarks.html /usr/lib/firefox/defaults/profile'.
The same quandary applies when adding extensions, changing prefs etc.
I have looked at the following commands:-
find, sed, xargs, grep, awk, fprint.
Unfortunately my grasp of syntax and programming is very simple at best.

Programming :: Make List Of Directories Which Contain Files Other Than Subdirs?
Oct 17, 2009I need to, through a bash script, go through a given directory (given as argument 1) to list out the relative path in this directory (including $1) for eact subdirectory which contains files. Directories which only contain . .. and eventually only subdirectories SHALL NOT be listed. It is this last requirement that makes it difficult for me.
I have been using the tree command for now, but I have not found a way to ignore paths to directories which only contains other subdirs or nothing at all in any easy way. I may offcourse test each directory after they are listed but this gives an extra loop to go through and I beleive it should be possible to do it directly when creatring the list. I guess by using find or ls in conjuntion with the tree command or by itself it should be possible but I am not to conversant of nested script commands.
Programming :: Moving Files To Directories Based On Part Of Filename?
Jul 6, 2010I have a single directory of pairs of files, with the pairs sharing a string as the beginning of the filename:
SF1-27F1492R-clone01_T3_A18_001.ab1
SF1-27F1492R-clone01_T7_A20_002.ab1
SF1-27F1492R-clone02_T3_A19_003.ab1
SF1-27F1492R-clone02_T7_A21_004.ab1
...etc
I need to create a subdirectory for each pair then move the pair into the subdirectory.
I accomplished the first step using:
$find /foo -name '*T3*' -exec mkdir '{}.wrk' ;
I can use a regex to designate the pair and associate the directory, but how do I use regex in a path as the output of a move command?

Jul 2, 2010Is there a library/system call that will return to me what CPU core a thread of execution is running on? I've looked for a bit on the net already and also in /usr/include and couldn't find one.
getcpu() and sched_getcpu() are two that I found, but when I include the appropriate header files (linux/getcpu.h, and sys/sched.h respectively), gcc says getcpu.h doesn't exist and the linker complains it cannot find the implementation in sched.h.
I'm sure I'm doing something really stupid or overthinking...
What I am doing is running an OpenMP application and specifying a list of cpu cores to run on with GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY. I want to make sure that each core is getting the same number of threads.
**UPDATE**
It seems that this code works, but only with glibc >= 2.6, and my machine has 2.5:
Code:
#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <stdio.h>
#include <utmpx.h>
int main( void )

General :: Recursively Cp All Directories, Files And Hidden Files?
May 17, 2010Ubuntu 10.04
I want to copy all directories, files, and hidden files and hidden directories with one command. I want these items to replace any same items in the target directory.
I have tried several things, such as:
cp -r *

Programming :: Non-root User Determine Which Days The Computer Ran?
Mar 22, 2010Is there any way a non-root user can programmatically determine which days the computer ran during, say, the last month?
The information is in /var/log/messages.* but those files are root:root 640.
Non of the world-readable /var/log files on the Slackware 13.0 development system can be used:boot Not present if boot logging not enabled (default). dmesg No timestamps. lastlog Not enough info. wtmp Rewritten on each boot so not enough info. EDIT: not correct: by default wtmp is rotated weekly and kept for one month as configured in /etc/logrotate.conf xdm.log Not present if xdm not used. Xorg.0.log Not present if X not run.

Programming :: Perl: Determine Error Origin / Meaning In Code Call
Jan 20, 2010I've been requested to modify a perl backup script we use which mounts a networked NAS machine. The actual mount command is called inside a system() command. In testing, I can do a test of the return value, so I'm able to tell whether or not I've mounted properly, but I can't make heads or tails out of the return on deliberate errors. (Such as mounting a non-existent box.) I'm displaying the returned value, which is 256 in my tests. The man page for mount listed error messages with values from 1 to 64, but no higher. Am I drawing this error value from the system command somehow? And what would be the best way to determine what this error means?

Seeing as how I only use the -r switch when removing directories I accidentally ran this command and removed files that I wanted (luckily nothing vital). Lesson learned now I want to prevent ever doing that on files that *are* vital.
