Programming :: Getting A Script To Be Run On Multiple Files?
Apr 17, 2009
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
-srate 48000 -af lavcresample=48000
-lavcopts

I 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. So doing it by hand is so hard, so I need to write a script that will scan all folders and give me a list of values of eache ANSWERs.

I am looking for the quickest way to do multiple searches for different files.Here is the scenario: I want to search for various icons one by one in a script. Preference is for the gnome icon theme.
The echo piped into grep part seems to take a long time. Is there a quicker way of doing this?I do not want to use slocate, sqlite or the like since that will require admin privileges to update the database and/or extra dependencies.

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 am working with DM355 target board. Here we record. The video coming from IP cameras. Now I have to write c program for copying. The recorded avi files with date and time to NAS server using scp. I wrote a script to copy single file to NAS server.
#!/bin/bash
DATE=$(date +%Y%m%d_%H_%M_%S)
mv Camera1.avi Camera1_$DATE.avi
scp Camera1_$DATE.avi root@192.168.1.4:/root/test/
mv Camera1_$DATE.avi Camera1.av
But I have to write c program for copying multiple avi files with Date and Time to NAS server.

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)...

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

I have wrote a 1 line command that parses a file, locates the IP Address in the file and then trims the output the way I want it, and then sorts numerically and by uniqueness and then >> appends to output.txt
I can get all the IP's into 1 file "output.txt", but what I am really looking for is some type of way to create a text file, for each IP it finds labeled xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.txt and also put that ip address into that file..
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx = the ip address it finds

I've been trying to sort this out for several hours and I?m totally lost? I?ve been searching around, but haven?t found the solution to my problem. I have a directory with 100 files. I need to copy 10 lines of each files (let?s say from line 45 to 55) into one unique file. So I guess I could use sed ?w, but I didn?t manage to write the right script. I also tried using a loop to create 100 different files, each one with the 10 lines) to concatenate them later on. But I only got 1 file, not 100.

I'm playing around with a bash script to pass files to a program (such as VLC). I thought something like this would work:
vlc $( ls | sed 's/ /\ /g' | tr '
' ' ' )
ls shows the files in the current directory, then sed changes spaces to " " (to escape them) and finally tr removes the line breaks. I end up changing:
01 - Music Track.mp3
02 - Another Track.mp3
to
01 - Music Track.mp3 02 - Another Track.mp3
"vlc 01 - Music Track.mp3 02 - Another Track.mp3" works if I type it manually but my script reports a problem with `-'
It seems it's not escaping the spaces.

I have this cool bash script that I worked hard on. But it broke down when it can across files that had non-English characters. Another small problem was getting it to descend into a directory. If it renamed a directory it would not descend into that dir to rename the other files. I would have to run the script twice on the same directory.
Here is the script:
Code:
find -type d -o -regextype egrep -iregex '(.*.ogg|.*.mp3|.*.wav)' | while read s
do
rename -v 'y/A-Z/a-z/' "$s"
done
find -type d -o -regextype egrep -iregex '(.*.ogg|.*.mp3|.*.wav)' | while read n
do
rename -v 's/ /_/g' "$n"
done
A French name like this:
Code:
Chateau De Sable (imagine accents above the letter a)
became this:
Code:
ch303242tea_de_sable
This is not what I wanted.
Why would the script not descend into a directory after it was renamed?

My problem is that the word "Test" still displays to the screen? I want same effect as:

I am to rename all the files within a directory (which contains multiple subdirectories) recursively without invalid characters.
I tried the coding posted above.
find . -type f -printf '%p
' | while read file; do
oldfile=$(basename "$file")
newfile=$(echo "$oldfile" | sed 's/[^A-Za-z0-9_.]/_/g')
if [ ! "$newfile" == "$oldfile" ]; then
echo mv "$file" "${file%$oldfile}$newfile"
code....
but I get an error on both of them stating "find: bad option -printf find: [-H | -L] path-list predicate-list"

I have a set of files containing data that I need to re-arrange into one single property list.
The files that I have look like this:
Code:
# cat uk
<string>10</string>
<string>11</string>
...
<string>29</string>
[Code]....
So the lines in the files match up but I haven't found a way of reading several files line by line.
