Ubuntu :: Appending Text To The Output Of Ls?

Jul 14, 2011

I was wondering if it is possible to append some text to the output of ls. Like say, if i wanted to create symbolic links for all the files under a folder in my hard disk to a folder on my desktop, I could say (Pretty sure this won't work, but I am looking forward to something like this) echo ln -s | ls . This should append ln -s to all the files of ls.

Ubuntu :: Sort The Output To A Text File So That It Prints To The Text File At 1 Process Per Line?

Feb 6, 2011

im trying to output a list of running processes via a shell script. At the moment i got this which outputs the processes to a text file called out.

echo $(ps aux) >>out

The problem is though, the processes are all just one big block of text which makes it hard to read. Does anyone know how to sort the output to a text file so that it prints to the text file at 1 process per line? I know its probably simple but im very new to linux.

Feb 15, 2011

I'd like to write a script that invokes a gnome-terminal session which slowly reads out text like the phosphor screensaver (could be anything, a log file, ascii art, song lyrics, whatev) and then closes. I can invoke a terminal using [gnome-terminal -e 'cat /var/log/dmesg'] but the output flies pass by too quickly.any way to slow it down? I know it seems like an odd request but if anyone has a suggestion I'd love to hear it.

Debian Multimedia :: MPlayer Video Output In Layer Beneath Console Text

Jan 26, 2011

When I try to play a dvd and give mplayer no options, it defaults to "X11" for the video output, which maxes out the cpu. To get around this, firstly I tried to play the dvd using "cvidix" in the console.

I used the following command:
mplayer -ao alsa -vo cvidix -fs -framedrop -stop-xscreensaver -dvd-device /dev/dvd1 dvd://1
This played the dvd, but the console text was still visible over the top of the movie; i.e. mplayer was playing in the layer beneath the console text

Then I tried using xvidix in X:
mplayer -ao alsa -vo xvidix -fs -framedrop -stop-xscreensaver -dvd-device /dev/dvd1 dvd://1
This gives a green line about 5mm thick down the right side of the screen, but other than that it is ok.

General :: Appending Acpi=off To Grub Two

Mar 12, 2010

I have a Toshiba Satellite L505D-GS6000 it had windows7 on it when I bought it new. Needless to say windows just ran too slow. The only Ubuntu distro that would boot up was Karmic 9.10. I had to append the phrase acpi=off to get the live ISO to boot I had to type acpi=off after the word splash. I saw it would boot so I installed it as the only OS on this computer.

Now when I boot up I am hitting the power button once and the back on again to get to the grub. I hit the E key use my arrows down to the word splash type acpi=off. Then hit CTRL X to boot up. How do I put this permanently into Grub2.

Programming :: Appending A Time Stamp To Prstat

Aug 9, 2010

I am trying to run prstat for an extended time, outputting to a file and appending a time-stamp to each line (running on Solaris 10). I have tried this:

prstat -c -U usrname 60 480 | nawk '$1=="PID" { "date +%d%m%Y-%H:%M:%S" | getline d ; close("date") } { print d,$0 }' > /tmp/fileName &

this only appends the time the command was started to each line. I would like to fix this so that a new time is recorded every 60 seconds.

Programming :: Shell Script - Appending File1 To End Of File2

Jun 21, 2010

I'm working on some code where I have two files. I know I can use cat file1 >> file2 to append file1 to the end of file2. What I was wondering is how I could append the first line of file 1 to the end of the first line of file2, then the second line, and so forth.

So if file1 was :
cat
dog
mouse

file2:
orange
red
blue

I want file2 to be:
orange cat
red dog
blue mouse

Also I need it to remove any duplicates from the same horizontal line.
