Software :: Finding The Right File With Only A Line And Column Number?
Aug 1, 2011
I tried to come up with a thread title that was specific without being too long or cryptic. Don't think I succeeded. In my PHP error log I keep getting this error over and over again:
Code:
EntityRef: expecting ';' at line 565, column 81
It's very odd to me that it doesn't contain any sort of stack trace or file info. I know which of my virtual hosts and therefore which directory it's coming from, and it's happened now on half a dozen different servers that this site has lived on. So obviously I'm trying to track it down and add the missing ';' to the right file. This directory has dozens of sub-directories and hundreds of files though.
This is the best I've managed to come up with so far:
Code:
find . -type f -iname "*.php" -print -exec awk 'NR==565' {} ;
(I've run it both with and without the -iname filter.)
I get a very large list of files, and some of them display the contents of line 565 after them. I've checked through a number of them there, but haven't found the culprit. Is it possible to limit my "find" command to only files that have at least 565 lines? Is it possible to have it only print matches from line 565 that has at least 81 columns? How would I modify that to print perhaps 5 lines on either side (in case the error reporting is pulling a slightly different line.)

I have a project due for my Intro to C++ class and we are suppose to generate a file listing that will take an input of a C++ source code with .cpp extension and make a copy of it with a .lst extention that will have a line number preceding each and every line.

After running the following command, I get:
[root@yukiko /]# find / -iname .bashrc
/home/clamav/.bashrc
/home/vpopmail/.bashrc
/etc/skel/.bashrc
/root/.bashrc
But I would like to have a command that prints a specific line by supplying the command with the line number, for example:
[root@yukiko /]# find / -iname .bashrc | getline(2)
/home/vpopmail/.bashrc
Is there such a command on CentOS?

I have found many information about how to delete/grab a line in a text file including delete line with match a pattern but I did not find info about how to delete a line which match a pattern of a particular column only.
for example mydata.txt:
id type x y z
1 6 0.474611 0.227223 0.583947
[code]....

On windows I really only used Notepad++ as my text editor, it had two features that I loved.What I need to accomplish is what I would do with Notepad++ column editor.I could have like 100 lines, and place the cursor at a column, and goto edit>column editor, and I could insert an incrementing number. (I could also pad the incrementing number with 0s, this was GREAT for making batch files among other things.)So each line at that column had a number higher than the previous line.The other feature that I used sometimes was a search/replace with regex patterns.Does anyone know of an editor that has those features for linux? I am mostly after the column editor insert feature but if you know of one with both features that would rock.

how to find a free X display number?
I am using Xephyr to create a windowed session for logging in as another user. It needs its own X display, though. Obviously I can just give it :1.0 and hope for the best, that it would be better to identify the first free display and use that.
But I don't know how...

I have a file in the following format
item1 item2 attrbute1, attribute2, line1
item1 item2 attrbute1, attribute2, line2
item1 item2 attrbute1, attribute2, line3
item1 item2 attrbute1, attribute2, line4
item1 item2 attrbute1, attribute2, line5
Question: what command can I use swap item1 and item2 around and keep the attributes in place.
A space seperates the first and second column. The file has many hundreds of lines in which these need to be swapped
Output needs to be as follows:
item2 item1 attrbute1, attribute2, line1
item2 item1 attrbute1, attribute2, line2
item2 item1 attrbute1, attribute2, line3

Code:
#!/bin/bash
ls -lhGg | while read line; do echo "$line"; done | awk ' { print $3" "$6 } '
what i want to do is be able to print column 3 and every column greater then 5. Has to be to the end of the line, since different filenames can have different amounts of words in them and the blank space is the separator. my current code works just fine if the file has no blank space.

I have a text field that is just list of servers and I need to add the word hostname in front of them... It must be brain fart but I can't think of how to do this. Basically I need this:
server1
server2
server3
To this:
hostname server1
hostname server2
hostname server3
(And I just mean simply the word "hostname")

I have a file with lines that look like this:
Dev/7_Texas2004/4_Caves/page.htm
Dev/7_Texas2004/5_SanMarcos/page.htm
Dev/7_Texas2004/6_Austin/page.htm
And I'm trying to count the number of slashes in each line. I figured (with my limited knowledge of bash) that the best thing to use would be sed. So I ran this to print "not /": sed '!s////g' file # and eventually adding " | wc -m" to it. and I got the same result as if I ran cat, no modification at all:

I was trying to redirect the output of two variables to different columns of a .csv file in MS excel like this,
Code:
echo "$a $b" > abc.csv
But I am getting both $a and $b in the same column, is there anything I can use instead of to move the value of $b to the next column? Or is there a good different approach to do it?
