I just use The traditional VI (URL.../) ex-050325.tar.bz2 as my editor.All things are going fine until yesterday. I found that'vi myfile.txt'in command line (bash shell) can not display the first line of myfile.txt properly.The problem is that the first 20 characters (or so) of the first line do not show on my screen. So I can not edit them. All the other lines are fine. While 'cat myfile.txt' shows the content perfectly.

I have many folders with many subfolders. All I want it to get the folder name and the first subfolder. I tried using ls -R but this give me more than I want it. Let say I have:
dir1/subdir1/sub_1_1/file.a
dir1/subdir1/sub_1_1/file.a2
dir1/subdir1/sub_1_1/file.a3
[code]....
All I want when I execute the command is to show me:
dir1/subdir1
dir1/subdir1
dir1/subdir2
[code]....
This has to also show the line count. I can get it to show the files but not the line count. What is the single command used to identify only the matching count of all lines within files under the /etc directory that contain the word „HOST? List only the files with matches and suppress any error messages.

I'm trying to make some pages. For this I try to host them locally. However, when I have an error in my PHP code, the server shows an internal error 500 page and doesn't show on what line and what compile error it encountered. There is no such information in the error log either. What should I do about it, it's not really nice to comment all the lines and then try to uncomment them one by one. I've been googling for a while, but didn't find anything.. I forgot to mention, I;m using Fedora :P, the apache that came with it and mysql and php from the repository...
View 3 Replies View RelatedI 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.
