I'm looking for an mp3 file in the firefox cache folder.I was thinking I could run the command 'find -size +2M' and pipe that output into the 'file' command to tell me which is an mp3, something like thisfind -size +2M | fileBut this doesn't work, what am I doing wrong?This is output Usage: file [-bcikLhnNrsvz0] [-e test] [-f namefile] [-F separator] [-m magicfiles] file...file -C -m magicfilesTry `file --help' for more information.
My question deals with me creating a name pipe (file) in the my /group directory called chat.I then have to write a script to read from the named pipe and save data into a file called chat.log until the words End of File are passed to the program.
-When I created the named pipe file (chat) I used the mknod chat p command..Is this the correct command to create a named pipe file? -Then I'm having trouble with my script and how to make it run until the words End of File are entered in. This is what I have so far.
I understand that $! is the PID of a command. For example:
Code: #!/bin/bash myprogram & echo "PID of myprogram is $!"
I'd like to send the output of "myprogram" to both console and to a log file using the "tee" command but I also want to store the PID of "myprogam". Something like this:
Code: #!/bin/bash myprogram | tee ./logfile & echo "PID of myprogram is $!"
The problem is that $! is now the PID of "tee" rather than the PID of "myprogram".
I've written a simple server in linux used fork to create a FIFO pipe.The server create two FIFO pipe.One for server read data from client and write data to client.Then another pipe for client read data from server and write data to server.When the server read data from a client used server-pipe and then write data to client.But ,if the client no read open the pipe,the server side write will be crashed because of a broken-pipe SIGPIPE. How to check whether the read side is opened?Or,how to catch the SIGPIPE,and then my server will still execute on,not crashed!!

The target machine is a Windows XP Home SP3 pc. When I give the same command to another pc all works fine. The other pc is a Windows XP Prof SP3.
I'm doing ping between 2 RH servers through a VPN site2site tunnel and in some times I got in the result pipe 2 and another pipe 3 as I mark it in blue color below.
e.g.
64 bytes from 192.168.1.10: icmp_seq=0 ttl=128 time=0.229 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.10: icmp_seq=1 ttl=128 time=0.287 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.1.10: icmp_seq=2 ttl=128 time=0.278 ms
[code]....
What's the difference between pipe 2 and pipe 3 and what's the meaning of it?
Have this script which is reading in a series of files, one at a time with while-do-done loop, each file goes through various greps/awk's where this info is then saved to various files for later use. i.e....
Script is being run on Linux Red Hat,
In one of the grep/awk's the output (currently) are 2 columns (min max), i.e....| awk '{print $1, $2}' | sort -u which outputs (e.g.)
The number of "min max" pairs varies from file to file. Want to output a single column of unique numbers from the min max pairs & get the number of them for input to a file...i.e...
Where <PROCESS> is some process/technique that will generate a single column of integers (increment of 1) to pipe into the next one (sort -u)
i.e. (example from above)
Have tried command seq - only works for single pair input i.e.
Is there any command like seq etc which will output a single column based on a input of min max numbers (increment 1) to pipe onwards to next command?

I am tying to read a file in with nawk whilst trying to take input from a pipe. I've come across the getline option and no matter how hard I try, I can't figure out the correct syntax. What I want to do is to take some input from the pipe and make a comparison with all of the values in a file and print a match.

My .jar file needs and uses some files in the same directory it's in (everything, including the jar was unzipped into said directory). It runs perfectly when I do java -jar file.jar in the command line, but there's trouble when I double-click the file when running from the file system manager. I've tried a custom command under properties ie java -jar, but the problem is that the .jar file doesn't seem to be able to use any of the files in the same directory. When running, the jar can't find any of the files that it needs.

I already have the search part sorted just need to be able to remove the string I don't want from the multiple files.
