General :: Adding A Comma To The End Of Every Nth Line In Vi (or Sed)?

I would prefer a solution that uses vi, but if that's impossible sed would be fine also (or awk).

Programming :: Pyqt3 List Without Comma ?
Mar 21, 2010I'm trying to compose a line of numbers each single digit taken from a variable eg: 1010001 each variable digit is either a 0 or 1 made from variable layer1 through 7. I need to add each layer variable to the last to compose the number with no commas or spaces and add it directly after the -p option in the show_command line. I used array and list and the commas mess up the command and inserting "pens" in the show command interpertes it literally instead of the list or array value? The insert should look something like 1000110

General :: Output Pid's From Ps To A Comma Delimited File?
Apr 7, 2010need to monitor pecific processes over a time frame in terms of the amount of memory and cpu usage it utilizes. I can do this using the top -p <pid> option and using ps to retrieve the pid's. However, seeing that the pid's might differ and it needs to be run on about 13 different machines, I would like to write a script for this that can be run at set intervals. My problem that I have is this:
- When running top -p <pid> I can specify a comma seperated list of the processes required to monitor at that specific time.
- I can use ps -ef | grep <process> | grep -v grep| awk '{ print $2 }' to retrive the list of pid's and output this to a file.
However, how can I output these to the file as a comma seperated list without having to manually do this every time? The reason for this is (an example), lets say I want to monitor the cpu and memory usage of postgresql as well as all its child processes, then I would ps grep for postgres and get the list of pid's for instance.This list then needs to be passed to top -p as a comma seperated list of pid's I suspect that awk or sed might have some options available for this but I do not know this well enough.

Ubuntu :: Changing "keypad Delete" From Comma To Period
Jan 10, 2010I am using Ubuntu 9.10 in U.S. English with a German keyboard layout. Accordingly, pressing the delete button on the numeric keypad will produce a comma, which most applications do not recognize as a decimal. in order to have the key produce a period.
I have tried editing the /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/de and changing the line
Code:
include "kpdl(comma)"
in the "basic" section of the file to
Code:
include "kpdl(period)"
which seemed like the perfect solution, but upon restarting an error message pops up and the keyboard layout is changed to U.S. English.
Code:
cd /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols
xkbcomp -lhlpR '*' -o ../symbols.dir
which does nothing at all if used with sudo and produces an error message if used without. Reverting changes to /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/de removes all errors.
Is there something else I need to do to have xkb accept my changes to the file?
Code:
include "kpdl(comma)"
does not specify a symbol to be mapped to the keypad delete key, but rather constitutes a command that integrates a pre-specified option into the layout file. Thus, simply removing the line works perfectly well, even without using the above suggestion to register the change to the file with xkb (or whatever it does).

Ubuntu :: Way Of Finding Common Strings Between Two Files?

I have a vague idea that probably grep might be useful, but I don't know how to use it for this purpose.So, to sum it up, what I would like to do is to take to text files containing lists and merge their common items into a third file in the form:
1 ItemA [value_from_list1] [value_from_list2]
2 ItemB [value_from_list1] [value_from_list2]

Ubuntu :: Bash Script - For Loop - Replacing Strings?
Aug 16, 2011I'm not overly great with bash scripting. I do more batch file stuff for Windows than anything else but I'm trying to branch out a bit. (Frankly, I'd love to do this in Ruby but I'm not there yet...) Maybe I'm not using the correct terminology and that's why my searches are coming up useless...
Anyway, I have a script that does some work with HandBrake. Although it deals with HandBrake, I think the issue is not with HandBrake itself. The issue: I had a simpler script which worked fine but it would give me an MP4 with a file name of: Some Movie Name.iso.mp4 and it would still play but I wanted to get rid of the .iso in the file name. I also wanted to drop it into another directory during the encoding. That's why you see a $source & a $destination variable.

#!/bin/bash
source=/media/data/movies
destination=/media/data/movies/mp4s

Debian Programming :: Sh Command Strings
Feb 8, 2014I use udhcp with some of my minimal installs. I've messed around with the code a bit when it wasn't working correctly - a few years ago. I will find time - I hope soonish - to figure out how to do a few other things with it.
For now though, I'm using this string to grab my ip after startup
Code: Select allsu -c 'ifconfig eth0&&ifdown -a&&ifup lo&&ifup eth0'&&/sbin/ifconfig eth0
I realize I could substitute ifup -a but I'm more interested in figuring out how to make ifup wait for the ip to become available if it is not available yet.
Never mind that one, just typing out the question answered it for me, when I find it in the scripting man ' ; : " & =
Or if there are any other suggestions for better construction of the string.

I'm not convinced yet that writing a shell script to do this is the best course of action. If someone is capable of doing this with a Perl or a Python script that's fine too. If you want to make it super high performance and write it in assembly
