The scripts cannot identify tab space in between.......
Hi folks,
Thanks for the replies...
I tried the mentioned methods..but its partially working....but again some interesting results. I am using vi to edit the code...and i entered "ii" 4 times by adding tab space in between such that the last "ii" will be place after 79..like given below...
(well the space between "ii"'s is bit large say 8 tab space, the unix forum text editor is not allowing me to demonstrate that.....)
ii ii ii ii
If i use the following script
egrep -n '.{80}' VerCsm.cpp
it does not print the exceeded line....ii
but the interesting fact is that..if i type
iiiiiii...........
continuous till 80 or more....with no tab space in between the above script will work......dont know why ???? any idea ?????..
....for time being i assume that the cases i face will be the second one....and will continue to use the mentioned scripts.......thnks..

XmTabListRemoveTabs(library call) XmTabListRemoveTabs(library call)
NAME
XmTabListRemoveTabs -- A convenience function that removes noncontiguous tabs
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/Xm.h>
XmTabList XmTabListRemoveTabs(
XmTabList oldlist,
Cardinal *position_list,
Cardinal position_count);
DESCRIPTION
XmTabListRemoveTabs removes noncontiguous tabs from a tab list. The function creates a new tab list by copying the contents of oldlist and
removing all tabs whose corresponding positions appear in the position_list array. A warning message is displayed if a specified position
is invalid; for example, if the value is a number greater than the number of tabs in the tab list.
tablist Specifies the tab list. The function deallocates oldlist and the tabs it contains after extracting the required information.
position_list
Specifies an array of the tab positions to be removed. The position of the first tab in the list is 0 (zero), the position of the
second tab is 1, and so on.
position_count
Specifies the number of elements in the position_list.
RETURN
If oldlist or position_list is NULL, or position_count is 0 (zero), returns oldlist. Otherwise, this function returns the new tab list.
The function allocates space to hold the returned tab list. The application is responsible for managing the allocated space. The applica-
tion can recover the allocated space by calling XmTabListFree.
