Ubuntu :: Write A Shell Script To Run The Configuration Of Vim Editor?
Apr 12, 2010
I have a question, tried to search on the Internet but it is hopeless. I want to write a shell script(bashShell) that will run commands of configuration for vim editor.For example: in the script, it will run ":let", ":set", ":highlight" to configure for vim editor. In addition to, when I searched a pattern and wrote it to file,ed vi to open it automatically. But, I couldn't highlight a word(that is the pattern I'm searching) in vim automatically
I want to write a shell script which will simultaneously collect OS user information and write in an individual text files.Can anyone tell me the syntax of the script.N.B. The user name will be mentioned in an array within the shell script.
I am using Ubuntu 10.04 through VMware Fusion. Works great. What I would like to do is add the Configuration editor to my Applications menu and I would also like to be able to edit and modify the Applications menu. How can I do this?I tried alt-F2 to launch the editor but it didn't work. What can I do?
I accidentally deleted my upper panel and I had to restore it. However, when I decided to custom my time and date format using configuration editor (gconf-editor) through apps>panel>clock_screen0, the clock_screen0 folder is missing. Only several folders entitled applets with corresponding numbers are shown.
I once was able to customize it so now I'm really confused why it disappeared.
I'm trying to write a toy linux shell. For starters this is what I'm trying to do:
1. Start a new process with fork.
2. Execute a program in the new process with execl().
3. Redirect the output from the new process from STDOUT to another file descriptor, using dup2(2).
4. In the parent process, read the output from the child process and write it to the screen.
Creating a new process and executing a program in it is no problems, the problem is that I can't seem to capture the output from it in the parent process.
Canceled a sys backup in progress now my Waste bin is at max and must be emptied.However OpenSuse 11.3 contradicts itself by claiming there is 0 in the waste bin? Perhaps there is a Bash command that would solve the problem
I recently installed this awesome distribution - Fedora 15 x64 because of the Gnome 3. I love it. But i have problem with adding music library folders to rhythmbox. I' ve been using gconf-editor for that on all debian based distributons i worked until this. I installed gconf-editor 3.0.0-2 but cannot find the entry for rhythmbox player. Can you tell me how to fix this ?
On this Red Hat Box that I am using there is no .vimrc file for the user root. So, I created one and entered only one line to highlight syntax with colors when I am writing scripts in PHP and Bash. But it is not working.
I'm trying to write a simple shell script, its purpose is not important. The script needs to make use of the system $HOSTNAME environment variable. I had a look at this page which provides the following example.
Code: #!/bin/sh echo "You are user $UID on $HOSTNAME" echo "Your home directory is: $HOME" echo "$HOSTNAME is running $OSTYPE"
I have a number of text files throughout my /home/pjs/Documents directory tree that have execute permissions set. Almost all of my file names have spaces in them. I am trying to write a shell script that will look at each file in my Documents directory, find the ones that have execute permissions set, and run the command chmod 644. Of course, I don't want the command run on the directories.
The following script *doesn't work*, but might serve to illustrate what I am trying to do:
#!/bin/bash for x in "$(ls -R)" do if [ -f "$x" ] && [ -x $x ]; then chmod 644 "$x" fi done
I want each file and directory name to be placed, one by one, in the variable $x, and then tested with the "if" conditionals.
The first problem seems to be that, although the command "ls -R" does produce a complete list of the files and directories I need, they are not placed, one by one, in the variable x like I want them to be.
Also, I think I should use the shift command so that the option -R doesn't get included as one of the values of the variable $x, but I can't figure out where to put it.
I want to write a shell script contains python one. So,the result of python one is flv file. I want the path of this is copied into a enviroment variable that i have to pass as a flag argument of another program (to convert into mp3). To individuate the result of python script I thought to use (in PWD)
Code: ls | grep -E '^.*mp3$' But my question is: How can I copy this result into enviroment variable?
I installed elog 2.9.2+2014.05.11git44800a72 on my Jessie system. When entering a new post just a simple plain text editing box is shown instead of the WYSIWYG editor, and no drag and drop area for attachments is shown. When I start the elog service with "systemctl start elog" I get this suspect message in the journal: "FCKedit NOT detected".
Indeed, I see that the elog installation creates a symlink which I guess is supposed to point to the fckeditor installation, which nevertheless is missing:
Code: Select allroot@static-3-080:/usr/share/elog/scripts# ll fckeditor lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Oct 25Â 2014 fckeditor -> ../../fckeditor root@static-3-080:/usr/share/elog/scripts# ll ../../fckeditor ls: cannot access ../../fckeditor: No such file or directory
I installed ckeditor 4.4.4+dfsg1-3 but his did not fix the problem. I'd say that either the elog package is broken or that it misses a dependency on a package providing FCKedit. Or maybe my system is misconfigured?
