I would like to replace 'xxxx' with 'yyyy' which is in a file xyz.csproj not sure of what 'xxxx' is, it can be 3055, 4056, 7089 etc. I know it always appears at line # 5 and at character 50.

I have two files, file1.traj and file2.traj. Both these files contain identical data and the data are arranged in same format in them. The first line of both files is a comment.
At line 7843 of both files there is a cartesian coordinate X, Y and Z ( three digits ). And at line 15685 there is another three digits. The number of lines in between two cartesian coordinates are 7841. And there are few hundreds of thousands of lines in a file.
What I need to do is copy the X Y Z coordinate (three digits) from file1.traj at line 7843 and paste into file2.traj at the same line number as in file1.traj. The next line will be 15685 from file1.traj and replace at line 15685 at file2.traj. And I dont want other lines (data) in file2.traj get altered. This sequence shall be going on until the end of the file. Means copy and substitude the selected lines from file1.traj into file2.traj.
I tried to use paste command but I cant do for specified line alone.
Here i showed the data format in the file. I used the line number for clarity purpose.

I want to replace specific character in a file after every specific line. example as follows.
O 000000000000000000

I'm having a bit of a headbanger trying to work this one out. I'm trying to remove all of the characters on a line apart from the last 17. For example, I need to change this:
Code:
00000000000000000089;0bbfaeb8
01000000000000000089;0bcb5948

Code:

At the present my code lists all the available groups, how would I add a user to a specified group? (e.g add "members user3") to the end of group 1 for example. So the code ends up like this
Code:
members user2,user3
for example
else {

What I am trying to achive is the editing of /etc/ssh/sshd_config I have the line
Code: AllowUsers usera userb
And I want to be able to append to the end of this line from a bash script.I have muddled together from other sites and got the following:-
Code: sed -e "s/^AllowUsers/� userc/" -i /etc/ssh/sshd_config
But this appears to add userc directly after AllowUsers and not after userb

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a requirement to print images (two to be precise) from the command line of a given size and without losing too much quality.
So, I may have two images, a.jpg and b.jpg which may be 4x4" and 6x4" respectively (the sizes may vary). I need to be able to print both these on a single sheet of paper (one under the other) at a given size for each - so a may be 2x2" and b may be 3x2" - the aspect ratio will always be maintained (or as near as possible!)
I am currently doing this a very messy way (because I don't know any other way!!) - basically I am converting the picture to a given size using a set density using convert and then concatenating the two using montage.
Here is part of my script:
Code:
Don't worry too much about the case statement at the end - that is just to be able to select to print either A, B or A and B.
The issue with this is that is doesn't work great if the aspect ratio is not maintained perfectly and also, it loses quite a lot of quality on the print.
I have a very old windows app which I wrote years back in VB (o dear! ) which does the same thing and the quality is fine (I am running it through wine). I want it to be command line though because I want to run it as part of other scripts etc.
As much as I didn't want to ask a sed question, especially considering there's already one on this page I've looked as best I could and cant find the solution. Id like to use sed to replace occurrences of a pattern but exclude two or 3 specific lines that are not consecutive. For example I know with 1,10 i could exclude the first 10 lines, what is the syntax if I just wanted to exclude line 3 and 7. The sed command I'm working with right now is for rearranging Ethernets.
cat /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules | sed -e '/'"$found1fullmac"'/!s/eth1/'"found1eth"'/' > /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
I would like to replace $found1fullmac with two variables representing line numbers to exclude from the replacement.
I want to sort a number of lines based on their size:
data:

Should output as:

1
2
12
21
[code]....
But i'm gettings this with sort
----------------
1
12
123
1234

Can we sort the above "data" text, based on "number of characters" instead of "character order"?

port = 2566
I want to replace it as

I've got a file that I want to convert to a CSV format.
Each line of the file is something like:
term1a term1b [pronunciation] definition
term2a term2b [pronunciation] definition
term3a term3b [pronunciation] definition
To get it into CSV, I just need to perform 3 find and replace operations:
First, replace the first " " (space) with a "," (comma). Next, replace the first " [" (space and right-facing square bracket) with a "," (comma). Finally, replace the first "] " (left-facing square bracket and a space) with a "," (comma).
The reason it must only be the first such occurance, is the definition area contains lots of spaces and square brackets which I'd like to leave left untouched.
