I haven't tried this, but it may get you a step closer to what you want.
It loops through all the files found, makes a copy, and chops off the first line as long as it doesn't start with 'Data' followed by 20 printable characters.
Note that egrep -qv does not print any output (-q) and returns true if it does not (-v) find the regex. And test -s returns true if the file is greater than zero size.
Hi folks. None of the conventional methods are working for my dilemma:
I have a file in my root directory that has a name comprised of strange characters. When I do an ls, it just hangs at that file until I do a Cntrl-C.

Hello ,
I'm trying to split a file which contains a single very long line.
My aim is to split this single line each 120 characters.
I tried with the sed command :
`cat ${MYPATH}/${FILE}|sed -e :a -e 's/^.\{1,120\}$/&\n/;ta' >{MYPATH}/${DEST}`
but when I wc -l the destination file it is... (2 Replies)
Hello all,
I'm new to UNIX and new to this forum, so forgive my lack of knowledge. I'm new with editing in vi so I FTP scripts to a Windows machine and edit the script in notepad (when I need to do something quickly). Sometimes when I FTP the script back to the UNIX box, strange characters... (4 Replies)
Hi, I have a bash script and I am looking for a command that will merge specific lines together.
Sample Data:

I've written a script:
find -depth | awk ‘

if ( substr($1,length($0)-2,3) == “/1.” )

}

The idea is that it trundles through a large directory structure looking for files which are named '1.' and then... (3 Replies)
Hello unix users :)
I am trying to grep a string from a file that both the file and the string may have characters in them that are quite... strange, like würzburger.
Well, bash reads this as
W%C3%BCrzburger
For example, if i do
wget W%C3%BCrzburger
the output is:

While I do know some control characters need to be escaped, can normal characters also be escaped and still work the same way? Basically I do not know all control characters that have a special meaning, for example, ?, ., % have a meaning and have to be escaped... (11 Replies)

test::data
Data(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Data(3pm)NAME
Test::Data -- test functions for particular variable types
SYNOPSIS
use Test::Data qw(Scalar Array Hash Function);
DESCRIPTION
Test::Data provides utility functions to check properties and values of data and variables.
Functions
Plug-in modules define functions for each data type. See the appropriate module.
How it works
The Test::Data module simply imports functions from Test::Data::* modules. Each module defines a self-contained function, and puts that
function name into @EXPORT. Test::Data defines its own import function, but that does not matter to the plug-in modules.
If you want to write a plug-in module, follow the example of one that already exists. Name the module Test::Data::Foo, where you replace
Foo with the right name. Test::Data should automatically find it.
BUGS
I'm not a very good Windows Perler, so some things don't work as they should on Windows. I recently got a Windows box so I can test things,
but if you run into problems, I can use all the patches or advice you care to send.
