gosh! that was it
thanks a lot
BTW what do you recommend me to learn? perl or python or ruby? I am a bit fed up that this scripting is so strict... I feel like programming in fortran (what I also do
![Stick Out Tongue Smilie](https://www.unix.com/images/smilies/tongue.gif)
)
Usually I have to do this kind of operations and sometimes the data blocks are up to 128000 lines with eight or more columns... and I have usually about 2500 data files like that... in total sometimes about 6GB/2500 files
So what'd be faster and easier to apply/learn, python, perl, ruby??

dh_pysupport
DH_PYSUPPORT(1) python-support DH_PYSUPPORT(1)
NAME
dh_pysupport - use the python-support framework to handle Python modules
SYNOPSIS
dh_pysupport [debhelper options] [-V X.Y] [-X item [...]] [-n] [module dirs ...]
DESCRIPTION
dh_pysupport is a debhelper program that will scan your package, detect public modules in /usr/lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages, and move them
to the shared Python modules location. It will generate appropriate postinst/prerm scripts to byte-compile modules installed there for all
available python versions.
It will also look for private Python modules and will byte-compile them with the current Python version. You may have to list the
directories containing private Python modules.
If a file named debian/pyversions exists, it is used to determine the python versions with which the package can work.
Appropriate dependencies on python-support, python and pythonX.Y are put in ${python:Depends}. The ${python:Versions} and
${python:Provides} optional substitution variables are made available as well.
OPTIONS
module dirs
If your package installs private python modules in non-standard directories, you can make dh_pysupport check those directories by
passing their names on the command line. By default, it will check /usr/lib/$PACKAGE, /usr/share/$PACKAGE, /usr/lib/games/$PACKAGE and
/usr/share/games/$PACKAGE
-n, --noscripts
Do not modify postinst/postrm scripts.
-d This option is deprecated.
-V X.Y
Force private modules to be bytecompiled with the specific X.Y python version, regardless of the default python version on the system.
-X item, --exclude=item
Exclude files that contain "item" anywhere in their filename from being taken into account to generate the python dependency. It also
excludes them from byte-compilation. You may use this option multiple times to build up a list of things to exclude.
CONFORMS TO
Python policy as of 2006-08-10
SEE ALSO
debhelper(7)
This program is a part of python-support but is made to work with debhelper.
