Ubuntu :: Use The Grep Command In Conjunction With An Editor?
Feb 16, 2011
Is there a way to use the grep command in conjunction with an editor such as nano or vi so that I can remove the commented out lines from a conf file and then proceed to edit it ? I can use grep -v "^#^" squid.conf (example ) which gives me a nicely tidy conf file but I can't edit it.Can this command be used with nano or ?

Is there anything special I need to do to use this card in conjunction with Fedora 14? It's been acting a little strange lately. Also I think the card may have some type of 3D support although I'm not entirely sure on that.

How to device-mapper multipathing in conjunction with fdisk. I am more of a solaris expert and now trying to grasp linux (red hat). I have a server that I plan to cluster (future assignment) which is attached to a Netapp SAN via emulex LPe11002 HBA. I have 8 paths to the LUN I created and I can see the multipath device (/dev/mapper/mpath1). Below is my multipath.conf file:
[Code]....
Question 1: When I look at fdisk -l, I can see all 8 paths to the same LUN. Although I partition /dev/mapper/mpath1, I can still see that 7 of the 8 still say "Disk /dev/sdX doesn't contain a valid partition table". I would think that all 8 would have this removed. I execute '/usr/sbin/lpfc/lun_scan all' and it doesn't work. I am looking to clean this up...what should I do? It seems weird to have to do it to all 8 paths!
Question 2: Why does my alias, 'db' not show up under /dev/mappers?
Question 3: Is there a way for fdisk -l to display one lun rather than displaying all 8 paths to the lun?
What is the standard procedure (commands) people execute when adding a new lun to a server with multipathing so it is nice and clean?

I want to pipe the output of a command into grep as the search TERM, rather than the text to be searched, like this for example
Code:
cat /var/log/auth.log | grep date "&b &d"
so that I only see the lines in auth.log for the current day...but obviously that line doesn't work.... is there a way to do this with grep, or even another command?

I have a requirement to find the files having its name as ack_reply. However, there are many other files in the same directory as these resides. Now I have to remove these files from the folder and retain others after 7 days. So I tried to write the below script with grep command.
find $directory -type f -mtime +7 | grep ack_reply
how can I pass this output to -exec command.
If I am not using grep command my script would be as
find $directory -type f -mtime +7 -exec remove.sh {}\;;
How can I use -exec with grep and find.

I am using grep to filter out directories I am not interested in like this:svn stat | grep -v data/charts | grep -v lib/model | grep -v web/picsIt seems a bit "hacky". Is there a better way to specify more than one string to ignore, so that I dont have to chain multiple grep commands?

I have a 500G HD with several partitions. I have just added another exact 500G HD and would like to copy the partition table from the first HD to the new HD.What is a good command line partition editor to get the job done? All of my partitions are ext4. I have looked at parted but the man pages says it does not support ext3, so I guess it will not work with ext4 either.What I am ultimately going to do is to set these two HD in a RAID0 configuration without having to re-install Karmic.

Few days back i installed ubuntu 10.10 on my system. Previously i worked on ubuntu 10.04 and used vim too, everything was fine. Now I formatted and upgraded to 10.10, when I use vim I find some of the commands missing for example :AS command used to open corresponding .c and .h files. On 10.04 it worked fine, but in 10.10 its giving error "E492: Not an editor command: AS". How to fix the issue? any missing packages i need to install?

After typing "grep some_word" on terminal 6, the system doesn't do a thing, just lets me type endlessly. I've tried "Esc", "q" , [CTRL] + x, "exit" and no luck. I bet I'll kick my ass when you tell me but at the moment I can't figure it out. Rebooting would probably solve the problem but there must be a better way.

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.

When I used the find command, I almost always need to search the local drives. But, I almost always have super large network shares mounted and these are included in the search. Is there an easy way to exclude those in the find command, grep and other similar commands? Example:
find / -name .vimrc

On windows I really only used Notepad++ as my text editor, it had two features that I loved.What I need to accomplish is what I would do with Notepad++ column editor.I could have like 100 lines, and place the cursor at a column, and goto edit>column editor, and I could insert an incrementing number. (I could also pad the incrementing number with 0s, this was GREAT for making batch files among other things.)So each line at that column had a number higher than the previous line.The other feature that I used sometimes was a search/replace with regex patterns.Does anyone know of an editor that has those features for linux? I am mostly after the column editor insert feature but if you know of one with both features that would rock.
