View 14 Replies View RelatedA function by name abc is called in many files. I want to copy all the lines with the function call to an output file.A simple grep on function name doesn't help me as the function call is spanning across multiple lines as follows:
abc(parameter1,
parameter2,
parameter3);
So I want to copy all the three lines (till semicolon) to the output file.The problem is because there are more than 200 calls for the same function and I cannot do it manually
so i have a file that has the following
file1.txt
ID1 age_11 dog_n3 parent_dog_n1
ID1 age_7 dog_n4 parent_dog_n3
ID1 dog_n5 age_4
ID1 dog_n6 age_4
[Code].....
As you can see i would like the output file to be just the dogs, not the otehr information. But because the information is mixed up how can i extract only the dogs? (i cant do and awk '{print }' because the dogs are found in colounm 2 or 3 or sometimes even 4.
I need a command to find the all files which filename contains the text "SomeText" and to delete that files!From /home/movie/wp-content/uploads/this folder I have lots of files and folders .Also I need that for folders and subfolders who contains some text in folder name "someTextInFolderName"
View 13 Replies View RelatedI tried to use the command:
sed -i ''$line_number',/port/s/port/portMARKED/' file
to substitute the word "port" by the word "portMARKED" at the specific line that is saved in "line_number". The substitution happens, but it is copying my line twice... and I have no idea why... I need to make a single substitution of one word for another at a certain line in my text file. Would somebody know how I could do that?

Is there a way to do it with awk?
To save on the writing of WAY to many files with very little in them, I want to put it all in one file and read a specific few lines. There will be six variables to be read at a time. Format is as such:
//Set 1
string name
5
12
[code]....
From name to 5th number is a set. The name will be of different lengths for each set. This will be a big file of probably 40+ sets. My problem lies in reading one and only one set be it set 5 or set 34. It needs to be done in C++.
I'm trying to come up with ideas for a simple way to strip a specific "entry" from a text file.I know tools like sed and perl can remove specific lines from a file but I haven't been able to come up with an elegant way to do my group of lines.In my file, the first "Location" line and the "SVNPath" line should be unique every time... but are they enough to strip out the whole set of the group plus the trailing one line of white space separating each group? Add to this, my file will grow as new entries are added (always appended to the end) but new entries will have the same formatting.

Code:
awk '/^./ {print}' FILE.TXT
That does not work, I just get an empty output, even if FILE.TXT contains lines which fit the desired regexp I've searched but did not found my way. I'd like to do it with awk, as I want my program to rely only on awk, nothing else such as sed, grep, etc.
there is a way to add line spaces when asking for user interaction in a script. For example:
Code:
SPACE
Hello what is your name?
SPACE
SPACE
So this is asking a question but has a space/empty line at the top of the screen and 2 spaces/empty lines below. I've seen it done in a bash script using for each line/space needed
Code:
echo ""
So what does perl use?
I am trying to delete any blank lines within two patterns e.g.
Address: 53 HIGH STREET Cred Id :
MYTOWN
MYCOUNTY
MM12 6MM
Pay Method : Crossed Cheque
The start of my pattern is "Cred Id" and the end is "Pay Method" and I want to delete the blank lines between county and post code. I did find the code below but it doesn't seem to change anything:
sed -ne '/Cred Id/,/Pay Method/!bp' -e '/^$/b' -e -e p ll.out
I can get it to print just the range I'm interested in by doing sed -ne '/Cred Id/,/Pay Method/p'.
I'm trying to extract specific lines from a flat file. I need lines that fall within a range of coordinates. The -F can be either ! or = If the line is in this set range I need all of the data on that line. ranges lat 36 to 39 and longitude -74 to -84
awk -F '=' '{lat=substr($2,1,2); lon=substr($2,10,3); (lat >36 && lat <39) && (lon >-74 && lon <-84); print lat"--"lon}' < net.log
example line from the flat file

I have a file which contains milion of records. It contains 12 columns seperated by "||" (delimeter).
First two fields contain first name and last name of a person. Now my requirement is to delete all those records from this file for which:
First two fields does not contain any alphabet.
For e.g i have below mentioned records in file:
gaurav||gandhi||123||456||789
#a%bcd||123abc||89|90||91
12345||@@@||89||123||234
***||!!!!||98||76||90
Now, last two lines should be removed from this file since first two fields does not contain any alphabet for these two records.

I have a file with three consecutive blank lines. I want to delete two and keep one.Also, if anyone could direct me towards a guide on regular expressions particularly as they apply to sed, I would be grateful. I am having a hell of a time figuring out the syntax.
View 8 Replies View RelatedAll I want is a command that reads one data file with several columns and prints it in another one.However, whenever the value in one specific column alters, it prints one empty line in the new file. For example, consider the file
2.54000000 2.54000000
2.54000000 2.54000000
2.54000000 2.54000000
2.54000000 2.56000000

I am pretty new to bash scripting...I am trying to write a script that will take an input and read it word for word and then DO something with it like echo. I have been able to find how to read word for word from a file but I don't know how to do it with input.
I was looking for something like
Code:
exit 0 The input would be A-Z a-z 0-9 and have a single space between each word.
