awk
Here is what I would like to do:
Take selected fields from a log file. Only print or get the last 10 fields that match search string. Take the results a write it to a file (over writhing the old data each time) The resulting data file that is created will serve a text web page that shows the last 10 qualifying results from the awk search string.
I would like to have this process run in the background and search for new strings every minute or so.
I know how to write the awk string to ge the patterns. I just dont know how to only select the last 10 results and have the whole thing run in the background.
Thanks
Ted

mdbfontset
mdbFontset(5) The m17n Library mdbFontset(5)
NAME
mdbFontset - Fontset
DESCRIPTION
The m17n library loads a fontset definition from the m17n database by the tags <fontset, FONTSET-NAME>. The plist format of the data is as
follows:
FONTSET ::= PER-SCRIPT * PER-CHARSET * FALLBACK *
PER-SCRIPT ::= '(' SCRIPT PER-LANGUAGE + ')'
PER-LANGUAGE ::= '(' LANGUAGE FONT-SPEC-ELEMENT + ')'
PER-CHARSET ::= '(' CHARSET FONT-SPEC-ELEMENT + ')'
FALLBACK ::= FONT-SPEC-ELEMENT
FONT-SPEC-ELEMENT ::= '(' FONT-SPEC [ FLT-NAME ] ')'
FONT-SPEC ::=
'(' [ FOUNDRY FAMILY
[ WEIGHT [ STYLE [ STRETCH [ ADSTYLE ]]]]]
REGISTRY
[ OTF-SPEC ] [ LANG-SPEC ] ')'
SCRIPT is a symbol of script name (e.g. latin, han) or nil. LANGUAGE is a two-letter symbol of language name code defined by ISO 639 (e.g.
ja, zh) or nil.
FONT-SPEC is to specify properties of a font. FOUNDRY to REGISTRY are symbols corresponding to Mfoundry to Mregistry property of a font.
See m17nFont for the meaning of each property.
OTF-SPEC is a symbol specifyng the required OTF features. The symbol name has the following syntax.
OTF-SPEC-NAME ::= ':otf=' SCRIPT LANGSYS ? GSUB-FEATURES ? GPOS-FEATURES ?
SCRIPT ::= SYMBOL
LANGSYS ::= '/' SYMBOL
GSUB-FEATURES ::= '=' FEATURE-LIST ?
GPOS-FEATURES ::= '+' FEATURE-LIST ?
FEATURE-LIST ::= '~' ? FEATURE ( ',' '~' ? FEATURE ',' )
Here, FEATURE is a four-letter Open Type feature.
LANG-SPEC is a symbol specifying the required language support. The symbol name has the following syntax.
LANG-SPEC-NAME ::= ':lang=' LANG
Here, LANG is a two or three-letter ISO-639 language code.
FLT-NAME is a name of Font Layout Table (Font Layout Table).
EXAMPLE
This is an example of PER_SCRIPT.
(han
(ja
((jisx0208.1983-0)))
(zh
((gb2312.1980-0)))
(nil
((big5-0))))
It instructs the font selector to use a font of registry 'jisx0208.1983-0' for a 'han' character (i.e. a character whose Mscript property
is 'han') if the character has Mlanguage text property 'ja' in an M-text and the character is in the repertories of such fonts. Otherwise,
try a font of registry 'gb2312.1980-0' or 'big5-0'. If that 'han' character does not have Mlanguage text property, try all three fonts.
See the function mdraw_text() for the detail of how a font is selected.
