running a looping script for all files in directory
I have three different linux command scripts that I run for 20+ files in one directory.
it goes like this
FIRST SCRIPT:
grep 'something' -w file > newfile1
.
.
.
grep 'something -w file > newfile20
then I take all these 'newfileN' and run this:
awk 'BEGIN { format="%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\n" } { printf(format,$1,$15,$4,$4,$4,$4,$2,$3,$4,$4)}' newfile1 > new.newfile1
.
.
.
awk 'BEGIN { format="%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\n" } { printf(format,$1,$15,$4,$4,$4,$4,$2,$3,$4,$4)}' newfile20 > new.newfile20
then finally I take these 'new.newfileN' and do this:
sed -e 's/[+-]/U0/2' -e 's/[+-]/0/2' -e 's/[+-]/0/2' -e 's/[+-]/0/2' -e 's/+/F/1' -e 's/-/R/2' -e 's/[+-]/../2' -e 's/chr//1' new.newfile1 > new.new.newfile1
.
.
.
sed -e 's/[+-]/U0/2' -e 's/[+-]/0/2' -e 's/[+-]/0/2' -e 's/[+-]/0/2' -e 's/+/F/1' -e 's/-/R/2' -e 's/[+-]/../2' -e 's/chr//1' new.newfile20 > new.new.newfile20
So, is there a way I can make this all into one script so instead of copying and pasting each scripted line 20+ times.
thanks

I am trying to write a script that will look for a file in a directory, then remove it. I need it to loop until it has removed a certain number of files. Is it better to do a repeat or to list each file in a pattern? Files will be numbered like RAF.01.*, RAF.02.*, etc. Thanks, James (6 Replies)

service
service(8) System Manager's Manual service(8)
NAME
service - run a System V init script
SYNOPSIS
service SCRIPT COMMAND [OPTIONS]
service --status-all
service --help | -h | --version
DESCRIPTION
service runs a System V init script in as predictable an environment as possible, removing most environment variables and with the current
working directory set to /.
The SCRIPT parameter specifies a System V init script, located in /etc/init.d/SCRIPT. The supported values of COMMAND depend on the
invoked script. service passes COMMAND and OPTIONS to the init script unmodified. All scripts should support at least the start and stop
commands. As a special case, if COMMAND is --full-restart, the script is run twice, first with the stop command, then with the start com-
mand.
service --status-all runs all init scripts, in alphabetical order, with the status command.
EXIT CODES
service calls the init script and returns the status returned by it.
FILES
/etc/init.d
The directory containing System V init scripts.
ENVIRONMENT
LANG, TERM
The only environment variables passed to the init scripts.
SEE ALSO
/etc/init.d/skeleton,
update-rc.d(8),
init(8),
