Evening all. I'm having a terrible time with a script I've been working on for a few days now...
Say I have a text file named top10song.tm2, with the following in it:
Code:
kernkraft 400
Imagine
i kissed a girl
Thriller
animals
hallelujah
paint it black
psychosocial
Oi to the world
Zombie Zoo
song that never ends
The part of my script I'm having trouble with is as follows:
Code:
while read title
do
title=$(echo $title | tr '[A-Z' '[a-z]')
find /mnt/music -iname "*$title*" >> top10.lst
done < top10song.tm2
I've confirmed that every title in the top10song.tm2 list exists somewhere in /mnt/music. Running /find /mnt/music -iname "*paint it black*" from the command line returns a positive match, for example. But in the script? Nothing.
Also, is there a way to get find to stop after the first match?
I need to split a file based on certain context inside the file. Is there a unix command that can do this?

Hi All,
In the file names we have dates.

uudemon
uudemon(4) Kernel Interfaces Manual uudemon(4)NAME
uudemon.admin, uudemon.cleanu, uudemon.hour, uudemon.poll - Administrative shell scripts for polling remote systems, cleaning up spool
directories, reporting status to the system administrator, and routine invocations of the uuxqt and uusched daemons
SYNOPSIS
These shell scripts reside in the following directory:
/usr/lib/uucp
DESCRIPTION
All the scripts can be run from the command line or can be run automatically by the cron daemon. To automatically run the scripts, remove
the comment character (#) from the beginning of the relevant line in the /var/spool/cron/crontabs/uucp file.
This script reports status to the system administrator. It issues the uustat command to find out the status of uucp jobs. It mails the
results to the uucp login ID. The script may be modified to send mail to any login ID such as the uucp administrative login ID (uucpa) or
root. This script cleans up the /var/spool/uucp and /var/spool/uucppublic directories by running the uucleanup command. The uucleanup com-
mand is run with the following parameters: -C7, -D7, X2, -o2, -W1. This script runs the uusched and uuxqt daemons in the background. This
script polls the systems listed in the /usr/lib/uucp/Poll file. The uudemon.poll script should be scheduled before the uudemon.hour
script. This allows uudemon.poll to create any command files before cron runs the uudemon.hour script.
FILES
Contains the uudemon.admin, uudemon.cleanu, uudemon.hour and uudemon.poll files. Contains the uucp file.
RELATED INFORMATION
Commands: cron(8), uucleanup(8), uusched(8), uuxqt(1)
