Thank you,
$count variables calculates the length of the line and if its length is fewer than 500 it writes to NEWFILE or to REJFILE. How can I write this
Hi all,

Hi All,
Please advise . Welcome more suggestions.
For examples, I have 1000 file with prefix x??? In fact, I want to convert them to x???.txt with max 10 files at a time. As such, I will need to call another script to read from those 10 *txt files and sleep 5000 to convert the next 10 again.... (10 Replies)

pread
PREAD(2) Linux Programmer's Manual PREAD(2)NAME
pread, pwrite - read from or write to a file descriptor at a given offset
SYNOPSIS
#include <unistd.h>
ssize_t pread(int fd, void *buf, size_t count, off_t offset);
ssize_t pwrite(int fd, const void *buf, size_t count, off_t offset);
Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):
pread(), pwrite():
Since glibc 2.12:
_XOPEN_SOURCE >= 500 || _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200809L
Before glibc 2.12:
_XOPEN_SOURCE >= 500
DESCRIPTION
pread() reads up to count bytes from file descriptor fd at offset offset (from the start of the file) into the buffer starting at buf. The
file offset is not changed.
pwrite() writes up to count bytes from the buffer starting at buf to the file descriptor fd at offset offset. The file offset is not
changed.
The file referenced by fd must be capable of seeking.
RETURN VALUE
On success, the number of bytes read or written is returned (zero indicates that nothing was written, in the case of pwrite(), or end of
file, in the case of pread()), or -1 on error, in which case errno is set to indicate the error.
ERRORS
pread() can fail and set errno to any error specified for read(2) or lseek(2). pwrite() can fail and set errno to any error specified for
write(2) or lseek(2).
VERSIONS
The pread() and pwrite() system calls were added to Linux in version 2.1.60; the entries in the i386 system call table were added in
2.1.69. C library support (including emulation using lseek(2) on older kernels without the system calls) was added in glibc 2.1.
CONFORMING TO
POSIX.1-2001.
