thankyou
Actually, I tried that before, but it didn't work running from the directory with the space in the directory name. But I just tried it again from the command line in a test directory and it worked.
Anyway, I tried it again adapting it to the script and it worked. I think the last time I tried I must have missed something else, being too complex or something else was at play.
Thanks again for the help!
Anyway this is the next version of the script:
#!/usr/bin/sh
user=`whoami | tr "[A-Z]" "[a-z]"`
rtime=`date +'%H.%M.%S %d-%m-%y'`
ENVIRON=`pwd`
find "$ENVIRON" -name "*.pde" -type f -exec egrep -ily "DMRG[ ]*3,1" {} \;| while read pde
do
directory=`dirname "$pde"`
echo $directory
if [ -w "$directory" ] ; then
cp "$pde" "${pde}. pdb"
cat "$pde" | sed 's/\(DMRG[ ,]*3,\)1/\10/g' > ${pde}.tmp
if [ -s "${pde}.tmp" ] ; then
mv&n bsp;"${pde}.tmp" "$pde"
echo "PDE Conversion Success Log Generated at $rtime" \
>&nb sp;/syd/devel/code/training/steves/pdeSCS.log
echo "$pde File has been converted Backup file is ${pde}.pd b" \
>>&n bsp;/syd/devel/code/training/steves/pdeSCS.log
else
echo "PDE Conversion Error Log Generated at $rtime" > pdeER R.log
echo "Failure writing ${pde}.tmp Backup file is ${pde}.pdb"
echo "Failure writing ${pde}.tmp Backup file is ${pde}.pdb" >>&n bsp;pdeERR.log
fi
else
echo "$directory i s not writeable"
fi
done

- The link identifier of the FTP connection.
o $directory

Example #1
ftp_nlist(3) example
<?php
// set up basic connection
$conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server);
// login with username and password
$login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_user_name, $ftp_user_pass);
// get contents of the current directory
$contents = ftp_nlist($conn_id, ".");
// output $contents
var_dump($contents);
