Looks like the "," operator in the print inside the loop is adding a space for its own.
I want to print the sequence WITHOUT spaces. Something like this:

But I couldn't figure out how to do this.....
How to print a sequence, inside a loop, without that space ?
I want to be able to do

I've already used line split stuff to transform my data into something like this in a text file:
Code:
['1', '1', '3', '20.7505207']
['2', '1', '3', '23.0488319']
['3', '1', '3', '-1.5768747']
['4', '1', '3', '-26.4772491']

How can I get this on a python program so I can manipulate it as an array?
I have a function definition in a Python 2.x script which take a tuple as one of its arguments, but 2to3 has no answers nor any of my searching on how to represent the same in Python 3.x

Is it possible, in Linux, to rename a file from something without spaces to something containing spaces? I know I can create directories and files with spaces by doing:
mkdir "new dir" and:
touch "new file.txt"
I want to rename files from:
imgp0882.jpg to something like:
20091231 1243 some topic.jpg
And how would it look in a shell script that uses parameters like:
for i in *.jpg do
rename "$i" "$somepath/$mydate $mytime $mytopic$extension"
?
I'm new to Linux (using PCLinuxOS 2009.2), coming from Windows, and I've written myself a little shell script to download files from my camera and then automatically rename them according to a date-and-topic pattern. As you can guess by now, I'm stuck on the bit about renaming. If you want to see my script, here's a copy. I'm not using jhead for this renaming because that only works with JPEG files but I want a single solution for any media format including videos.
I am unable to write a simple Makefile. Though I know the concept am facing this error:
Makefile:2: *** missing separator (did you mean TAB instead of 8 spaces?). Stop.
Should I give a tab or spaces not able to continue.
I have been trying to code a program in C++ that must check for the correct syntax in order to operate. It must find ", " within the string, but I don't know why the compiler won't recognizes spaces.
Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string>
[Code]....
So the user must input "<name>, <interest>" with the ", " (comma and space) but even if you respect the syntax the compiler will skip to the else condition. I don't know why, but if I put any other condition like ",s" it will work, but not with spaces.
I have a file of the type:
a = b
where a is any string and b is an integer The 'a' string doesn't have any spaces in it.
Everything was running fine till I was searching for 'a' and finding value 'b' by expression
Code:
string="$a"
egrep -i -m1 "^[[:space:]]$string[[:space:]]*=" | awk -F'=' 'gsub(/^[[:space:]]+/,"",$2)gsub(/[[:space:]]+$/,"",$2){print $2}'
I recently ran into a situation where in the string 'a' had symbols like $, & in it. Though I haven't checked it for & but $ is definitely breaking my code
Any way to egrep for string with $ ??
One way I though was to replace every occurence of $ with $ in my search expression but that would involve an extra processing each time
I've searched the forums and the google looking for a means to do this and haven't found anything I can use. I have a large file that looks like this:
Code:
18000034161828M850
18000034172676M850
98 093095

I need to add spaces at the end of each line to ensure that every line has 80 chars before the carriage return. I was thinking something like this, but it doesn't do the right thing:
Code:
cat filename | sed -e 's/$/(bunch of spaces)/' | cut -c1-80 > filename2
I'm on fedora, so I can use awk, sed, bash, ksh, etc.
Which do you prefer and why? Also, I remember someone telling me once that while using space indentation use either 4 spaces or 2 spaces. Don't use 3 spaces. Anyone know why they would say not to use 3 spaces?

However the remote command does not work. I can't print the exact code so I'll just provide an equivelenat problem. This needs to work with filenames which do and do not contain spaces.

I'm facing difficulty while writing to an already existing file . I'm making a shell (programming in C). I want a file (say , logfile) to keep a record of all the commands a user enters. For the first command it runs fine , but for the second time and thereafter it overwrites the previous contents. How do I avoid this?

I've found that making a for loop does not work with files that contain a space in the name. Something to due with a bug that they call a "feature" that stops the first variable at the first whitespace.
Using a "while" loop is not exactly what i require either seeing as I want to be able to view each image in the directory on screen and tag it accordingly, before it jumps off to the next image, and I'm not sure how to add a pause to a while loop.
How do I make a Bash script and loop Variables handle files like "files that contain spaces.jpg"
I writing a script to go through multiple reports. I want to grep daemon.debug @10.10.10.10 on all reports to make sure it is pointing to the right IP address. the problems is the space between debug and @10 are different on all the reports, some have one space some have two and some have tabs how do I ignore the tabs or spaces and grep daemon.debug @10.10.10.10
daemon.debug /var/log/ftp rotate size 20m files 4 compress

I have over 50 files names with spaces in them.
I'm trying to use a for loop as such:
However, when I print the $filename in the script, the script prints out parts of the filename because of the spaces in the file name.
For example, say the file name was Star Quest.php
When the script executes one $filename would be Star and another Quest.php.
How could I account for this? Something like $'filename'
the preceding and trailing spaces around the commas in my CSV without destroying my address field. I'm new to regex and sed so this is probably easy but I just can't do it without destroying the Address section.

I have a fresh dedicated server that im currently configuring and needed a little help if I may ask.The problem is that i'm having a file naming issue. for example from the web I can access any file that does not have spaces of any type. ex/music/musicfile.mp3this works fine and my php script can locate itBut the problem is when I try to access a file that has spaces.ex/music/The Eagles - Hotel California.mp3my php script can't seem to locate any files like this with spaces but doesn't have a problem locating the files with no spaces.
I also took a look at the directory within shell. I did notice that files that have spaces are showing up in this formatt in shell.#/home/~username/public_html/music/The Eagles - Hotel California.mp3In shell , i'm assuming that unix/linux maybe adds a backslash before spaces. But when I FTP to this same directoy, the filename look normal and at windows standard. how could I correctly access these types of files within my php scrits? or would I need to have all uploaded files renamed so that spaces are replaced with underscores maybe?
I'm trying to insert a line using sed that has leading spaces before the text. Sed seems to be just dropping the spaces and only inserting the text. Any ideas what I'm missing?
Code:
NAM=rb134
sed -i.bak -e "$i
host ${NAM} {" /etc/crap
Instead of inserting a line with 8 leading spaces inserts it with "host" at the beginning of the line. I tried
Code:
NAM=rb134
sed -i.bak -e "$i
^ host ${NAM} {" /etc/crap
but it put the "^" at the begging of the line.
I am trying to read a file character wise and trying to write the same character to another file. In this process, I unable to read and write white spaces successfully to the new file. The script reads the white spaces but while writing the white space is lost. The section of the code, is given below. Please advice how can i read and retain the white space while writing to a new file.

I often get files with many spaces as part of their names. I would like to automatically replace these spaces with underscores, but otherwise not change the file name. Is there a way to do this task with just the bash shell?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a BASH shell script with embedded SQL script. The SQL script fetches the data from oracle server and the data contains more than 8 spaces in the value (eg, 28051630 A) and the data is written to flat file using the below syntax:
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/sqlplus -s ${CONNECT_STRING} >${out_file} <<!!
.. sql query..
!!
The problem is that whenever the data is written to ${out_file} spaces are getting converted to TAB character
eg, 10 spaces (in Oracle) converted to 1 TAB and 2 spaces 7 spaces (in Oracle) converted to 1 TAB and 1 space Also, from above example you can see the width of TAB char is not constant (8 in first example and 6 in second example) Is there any way that I can stop shell script to convert spaces into TAB character as I want the data as it is from Oracle DB (i.e. only spaces not TABs)
*I'm using Ubuntu 10.10
My issue is I can't handle the files with spaces in their name, I've donde the below script to print each file found inside folder and subbfolders with "find".
I would like to "ls" to each file found with its complete path and with its basename too.
Code:
files=$(find . -type f)
for each in "$files"
do
ls -l "$each" # 1rst option I've tried to list with full path
ls -l "$(/bin/echo "$each")" # 2nd option I've tried to list with full path
ls -l "$(/bin/echo $(basename "$each"))" # 1nd option I've tried to list with it basename
[Code].....
How can I list "ls -l" in both cases (with full path and with basename) when there are files with spaces in their name?
I want to match for this string:
Code:
Content-Transfer-Encoding:[:space:]base64
Content-Disposition:[:space:]attachment;[:space:]filename="%variable%"
Both lines are new lines, so they won't be inline. Other than that, they are all constants, I want this regex match to be an if statement rather than returning match string. so if the $content variable contains some string that matches:
Code:
if `sed "//p"` ;
Does any one know what syntax i could use to allow me to replace all instances at the beginning of a line with ones.

View 2 Replies View Relatedhaving bit of a trouble with path expansion of strings that contain some whitespace and wildcards First my script sources a configuration file that contains array assignments
Code:
...
BACKUP_TARGET_FILES[2]=/boot/config-* # no problems
BACKUP_TARGET_FILES[3]="/root/random dir with space/file*" # this is the problem

IFS=

this code seems to work but I'm not quite satisfied with it. I'd like to get rid those IFS changes, but haven't found out a solution as of yet. Problem with default IFS seems to be that with it neither $pattern or "$pattern" work; it either interprets pattern as multiple words (because of spaces) and so expands to wrong paths or it ignores * because it's within quotes.
Have worked with Linux at home for some time and have wrote the below script.
This script is run when a .torrent file finishes downloading and extracts any .rar files into an extracted directory.
However there are 2 thing that i cannot for the life of me get working.

1. I need the script to check a txt file to see if the file has been extracted previously.
2. The script does not work with any paths that contain spaces.

I have two sets of data. 1,2,3,4 and 6,7,8 and I have written a fortran code to put them in order as below:

do j = 6, 8

I want a space once every row loop has finish.I am dont know how to write the data as shown above using the fortran code in this post.
i was wondering if there is away to avoid application from closing if a specific library not found? for example: if my application uses libPng and it wasn't found on the system running my app (binary and not source), is there anyway to just disable the part that uses png from my application?
