Code:
sed s/[0-9]//g
on each file, I will get
Football_part.flv, instead of Football_part2.flv,
and
Nice_weather__ducks.flv, instead of Nice_weather_4_ducks.flv.
how to instruct sed to only remove numbers that are in the beginning of the name in a simple way?
In a wide family of "ancient" text editors, by pressing ^T you erased from the cursor up to the beginning of the following word. If we use '_' to represent the cursor, the thing was like this:
Code:
If I now hold <CNTL> down and press <T>, the result will be
Code:
Want to feel at home with vim. Many times I have consulted and even tried to systematically study vim's man page. Sometimes I consulted it with profit, sometimes not. This is one of the latter.

Does any one know what syntax i could use to allow me to replace all instances at the beginning of a line with ones.

I am trying to replace the first number in a string at the end of the line with the word that matches that number. for example i want to replace 546215 to be five-46215. The command that I have tried is
I am trying to do a find/grep/wc command to find matching files, print the filename and then the word count of a specific pattern per file. Here is my best (non-working) attempt so far:
I need to find each line in a file which does NOT begin with a double quote (") and append that line to the previous line. I have been successful doing this using the following command: cat filname.csv | sed -e :a -e '$!Ns/ [^"]//;ta -e 'P;D' > newfilename.csv
My issue is the substitution. As you would expect after the line is appended to the previous line the first character is removed. I need it to not be removed. I tried: cat filname.csv | sed -e :a -e '$!Ns/ [^"]/&/;ta -e 'P;D' > newfilename.csv but it just hangs.
Goal: Input: "line 1" line 2 Output with existing sed command is: line 1ine2 I need it to be line1line2.
I am writing a script to find words in a file call vowel words that have 5 or more vowels and then sort them alphabetic, this should be done using grep.
How to find a word from different files in linux ? Is there any command like (find . / -name *****), that can search files in the system for a particular word in Linux?
I'm using bash under Ubuntu.Currently this works well for the current directory:catdoc *.doc | grep "specificword" But I have lots of subdirectories with .doc files.How can I search for, let's say, "specificword" recursively?
Well, I am facing one issue:How can i read two files word by word at a time using any loop as i need word by word comparision in shell script?Please let me know pseudo code.
Want to search for ~ and delete it as well as to append the entire line to the above line. For Ex:
1111xxxx date Sandy area is ~around this area.3222xxx date There seems to ~left side of map, the colours are accurate (showing green areas)Even if I ~zoom in, the green parks, xxx3258 date The dammed up ~away, the "other" body of water varies ~blackNatural gas leaching.
IT MUST LOOK LIKE:

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.
In formsweb.cfg file are two lines with labels archive_jini= and archive= at the beginning of line. After equal sign (=) is row of filenames of java archives delimited by coma(,). When I insert a new jar file in java directory, I have to append the very same name of jar file to both lines if that name is not yet present.
I am cleaning up some text files to put on a website and am using the find/replace feature of Gedit extensively. The only problem I am having is that I can't find a way to use wildcards. For instance, I want to use the "?" and "*" in the same or similar way you do in bash. I already know that:
Represents a carriage return, and that is great, but I want to do something like: "?." to replace "A.", "B.", "1.", "2." with just plain spaces. The document in question is written in narrative, but has a bunch of outline markers in it, and I want to remove the outline markers.
I tried "escaping" the characters in a similar way as by using "?.", but that didn't work. Google was not very fruitful, and the Gedit help seems to be Gnome help and includes all kinds of useless info (for my problem) about wildcards in other programs.
I would like help with modifying the following content:

I was not sure how to tell sed what to look for? I tried the following but it did not work. sed -i 's/::* differ//g' mandiff.log
I'm in the middle of a data migration project and I have a text file where the data in one of the fields contains a "" at the end of each line. I know how to do a find and replace on ALL backslashes using something like this: Code: :%s/\//g The above example would replace all backslashes with nothing, effectively "removing" them. Does anyone know how I can apply a similar function that only removes the backslashes that exist at the end of a line?
I'm having problems with Tomboy. I have a few hundred note files and I need to go through all of them and replace all instances of "<link:broken>a</link:broken>" with "a". Is there a bash command I can use to do this?
Is there any command in Linux which will find a particular word in all the files in a given directory and the folders below and replace it with a new word?
Im looking for assistance to create a script to find and replace files.Probably best if I give you the background Our server uses a specific application which stores user data, each user data account (a folder on the server) has a file called 'Profile.xml' this file gets updated and replaced about every 30 mins similar to the fashion logrotate works i.e. Profile.xml.1 Profile.xml.2 -> .10
What we experience is that if the application crashes unexpectedly while it is doing its user profile refresh task we end up with sometimes a few hundred Profile.xml files which end up 0kb(should be around 4kb) , and our server see's these as corrupted profiles and will not see them. Our fix is to go back thru and rename the Profile.xml.1 to be Profile.xml (or sometimes up to Profile.xml.5 to Profile.xml) We want a script we can manually run to automate this process The server tree is
I have a many directories each with about 20 html files inside. All the files have .html ext. What I'm hoping is possible is from command line to find some text in each one and replace it with some other text.
Basically what I want to replace is;
/awstats/ with awstats/
I can do this easily with dreamweaver or some other application but because I have 960 pages total to do I'm hoping to do it this way.
