General :: Find Files In Subdirectories And Copy Them To Another Directory With The Same Subdirectories?
Nov 18, 2010This question is very similar to this one except that I want to maintain the file's original subdirectories.
For example if I had
/temp/a/a.txt
/temp/a/a.jpg
/temp/a/b.txt
/temp/b/c.txt
/temp/d/d.txt
/temp/d/d.jpg

Programming :: Excluding Files From Find?
Oct 22, 2010I have spent the last hour searching for a solution to this, but I can't get it to work. Here is what I am trying to do:
I have directories for different months in one folder. So for example Code: ../folder/Jan/
../folder/Aug/
etc. Some of the folders have a dot in front of the month as so: Code: ../folder/.Sep/
../folder/.Oct/
[Code].....
I am trying to find all the csv files EXCEPT those in a folder that has a dot. For example I want all the csv files in ../folder/Jan/ but I want none in ../folder/.Oct/.
I also want to exclude all the files in the /Aug/ folder that represent days 10-31.
Here is what I have so far: Code: find /some_path/folder/ ( ! -name "Aug[10-31]*.csv" ! -path "/.*/" -name "*.csv" ) | more This command lists all the .csv files except those in the /Aug/ files. So it just ignores the /Aug/ folder completely but lists every other .csv file.

General :: Find And List Files Created In A Particular Year?
Jan 31, 2011How to find and list files and directories present the current directory which were created in, say, years 2005, 2006, and 2009 and then move them to some other location, for example, /backup. Yes, I need to list them and move simultaneously. We can use:
Code:
find . -mtime n {};
but that n is troublesome for me to figure out files/directories created in years 2005, 2006, and 2009, for instance. Is there any way to match exactly by Year Value rather than calulating the "n" (days * 24 Hours)?

Jun 16, 2011I am using the diff command with the -r option, to compare a large number of files and files in subdirectories. My main interest is to find out which files have been changed, and not what the actual changes are, and since a lot of files has been changed, it would be a lot easier to view the file names only. Is there and option for diff that might do this, or does there exist a similar tool/command that could do the job?

OpenSUSE Network :: Nfs And /etc/exports - Excluding Certain Subdirectories

Fedora :: 12 Restored Files From USB Key - Source Files Are All Binary?
Feb 11, 2010Before installing Fedora on my laptop I backed up my files onto a USB key. I wiped the hard disk and installed Fedora 12. I copied my files back to my home directory - but all the text files are now binary! Any ideas why this would be or how to fix it??---------- Post added at 10:54 AM CST ---------- Previous post was at 10:35 AM CST ----------Hmm it seems that only some files are binary. Looks like some .tgz files are corrupted too.---------- Post added at 11:02 AM CST ---------- Previous post was at 10:54 AM CST ----------Damn - I wonder if the files weren't completely written to the usb key before I removed it. I don't remember their being a safe mount option in Fedora 10 - but I definitely unmounted it before removing it from the laptop.

View 2 Replies View RelatedSoftware :: Excluding Directories And Files In Tripwire?
Jul 12, 2010I have tripwire 2.4.1 up and running on one of our servers, and I am now in the process of configuring it to exclude some files and/or directories that are known to change periodically between integrity checks.
I did some reading on the subject, and one file that came up was the tw.config file. However, when I did a search for the file, there was no instance of it on the server. My next thought was to modify the tw.pol file, and I did try to list some files to be excluded. However, when I tried to update the policy, I got an error message which indicated the syntax that I entered within the tw.pol file was incorrect.
If the tw.config file does not exist, can I create it, and modify the tw.pol file to indicate where the file is located on the server?
Ubuntu :: Find / Sort And Produce List Of Files (Photos)
Sep 11, 2010I have hard drive with several thousand photos. These photos are in different formats, some are tif some jpg some raw (cr2). These files are in dozens of directories. What I want to do is produce a list of all the files, in all of the directories, sorted by the file name (not sorting on the path), listing the location, file name, size and date created.
For instance I may have a file called photo1.jpg in /photos/pics/
I may also have a file called photo1.cr2 in /photos/misc/ and a file called photo1.tif in /photos/processed/summer/.
I would like a text file that would look like this:
/photos/misc/photo1.cr2 2536658 2010-07-09 13:17
/photos/pics/photo1.jpg 320046 2010-07-07 14:47
/photos/processed/summer/photo1.tif 234456689 2010-07-10 09:22
Of course I want it to do this for all of the photos. I pretty sure that there is a way to do this with a minimum amount of work. I have no problem with using the command line.

May 6, 2010Lets say I have 20 files named FOOXX, where XX is the number of the file, eg 01, 02 etc. At the moment, if I want to delete all files lower than the number 10, this is easy and I just use a wildcard, eg rm FOO0* However, if I want to delete specific files ina range, eg 13-15, this becomes more difficult. rm FPP[13-15] does not work, and asks me if I wish to delete all files. Likewse rm FOO1[3-5] wishes to delete all files that begin with FOO1 So, what is the best way to delete ranges of files like this? I have tried with both bash and zsh, and I don't think they differ so much for such a basic task?

General :: Playing Broken Video Files (Binary Split Into 6 Parts)

It seems header of video file contain info about frame rate, audio/video encoder etc. which can't be guessed. In MPEG audio , every part of file is independently playable. If a movie is binary split into 6 parts & I don't have the first part then it is unplayable.
Code:
example

0-9
