Thank you very much, I never thought of just taking that out!
For the completeness of this thread in case others are interested it has also been pointed out by someone on the other thread that all the way over on page *2* of the referenced thread there is a working script for this purpose, which also takes the path as command line arg.
Code:
#!/bin/bash
if [ $# -ne 2 ]; then
echo "Usage: searchodt searchpath searchterm"
exit 1
fi
find $1 -name "*.odt" | while read file
do
unzip -ca "$file" content.xml | grep -qli "$2"
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
echo "Found keyword in: " $file
fi
Hi all,
I've been trying to get this to work for ages to no avail. I've searched this site and googled but cannot find a satisfactory answer.
I've got a while loop, like this
while read line
do
echo "$line"
done < file_name
Now, my problem is that most of the lines in the file... (3 Replies)
Hmmm... Bash doesn't parse whitespace with a read.
lev@sys09:~$ read line; echo "$line"

You can imagine what this does if you're using a shell script to read a list of unknown file names containing unknown spaces.
lev@sys09:~$ read word1 word2; echo "$word1,$word2"

I obviously haven't learned my lesson with shell and whitespace.
find /path/to/some/where/ -name "*.pdf" | awk '{print $5}'| uniq -d
results:
some Corporation
other Corporate junk

Works fine from cmdline but the whitespace turns into another FS in a for loop.

Hi,
I have a for loop which iterates over a list of strings, separated by whitespace:
$ list="1 2 3"
$ for i in $list; do echo $i; done
1

I now want to introduce some strings containing whitespace themselves ... This is straightforward if I directly iterate over the list:

I want to create a temp file which is named based on a search string. The search string may contain spaces or characters that aren't supposed to be used in filenames so I want to strip those out.
My thought was to use 'tr' with but the result is the opposite of what I want:

Hi
Following is an example line.
echo "192.22.22.22 \"33dffwef\" 200 300 dsdsd" | sed "s:\(\ *\ \):\1:"
I want it's output to be
200
However this is not the case. Can you tell me how to do it? I don't want to use AWK for this. Secondly, how can i fetch just 300? Should I use "\2"... (3 Replies)
Daily stupid question. I want to increment the file name everytime the script is run. So for example if the filename is manager.log and I run the script, I want the next sequence to be manager.log1. So to be clear I only want it to increment when the script is executed. So
./script... (10 Replies)
Having issues with an expect script. I've been scripting bash, python, etc... for a couple years now, but just started to try and use Expect. Trying to create a script that takes in some arguments, and then for now, just runs a pwd command(for testing, final will be command I pass).

I am trying to do in a single line to take a list of paths separated by whitespace and then loop thru all the paths that were wrote but my regex is not working,

But for some reason is only taking always the first path that I... (7 Replies)
Create a single bash script that does the following:

pthread_join
pthread_join(3C)pthread_join(3C)NAME
pthread_join - wait for thread termination
SYNOPSIS
cc -mt [ flag... ] file... -lpthread [ library... ]
#include <pthread.h>
int pthread_join(pthread_t thread, void **status);
The pthread_join() function suspends processing of the calling thread until the target thread completes. thread must be a member of the
current process and it cannot be a detached thread. See pthread_create(3C).
If two or more threads wait for the same thread to complete, all will suspend processing until the thread has terminated, and then one
thread will return successfully and the others will return with an error of ESRCH. The pthread_join() function will not block processing of
the calling thread if the target thread has already terminated.
If a pthread_join() call returns successfully with a non-null status argument, the value passed to pthread_exit(3C) by the terminating
thread will be placed in the location referenced by status.
If the pthread_join() calling thread is cancelled, then the target thread will remain joinable by pthread_join(). However, the calling
thread may set up a cancellation cleanup handler on thread prior to the join call, which may detach the target thread by calling
pthread_detach(3C). See pthread_detach(3C) and pthread_cancel(3C).
If successful, pthread_join() returns 0. Otherwise, an error number is returned to indicate the error.
EDEADLK A joining deadlock would occur, such as when a thread attempts to wait for itself.
EINVAL The thread corresponding to the given thread ID is a detached thread.
ESRCH No thread could be found corresponding to the given thread ID.

The pthread_join(3C) function must specify the thread ID for whose termination it will wait.
Calling pthread_join() also "detaches" the thread; that is, pthread_join() includes the effect of the pthread_detach() function. If a
thread were to be cancelled when blocked in pthread_join(), an explicit detach would have to be performed in the cancellation cleanup han-
dler. The pthread_detach() function exists primarily for this purpose.
