Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting trying to make an AWK code for ordering numbers in a column from least to highest Post 302353428 by vgersh99 on Tuesday 15th of September 2009 10:25:47 AM

To keep the forums high quality for all users, please take the time to format your posts correctly.

First of all, use Code Tags when you post any code or data samples so others can easily read your code. You can easily do this by highlighting your code and then clicking on the # in the editing menu. (You can also type code tags [code] and [/code] by hand.)

Second, avoid adding color or different fonts and font size to your posts. Selective use of color to highlight a single word or phrase can be useful at times, but using color, in general, makes the forums harder to read, especially bright colors like red.

Third, be careful when you cut-and-paste, edit any odd characters and make sure all links are working property.

Thank You.

NAME
odfhighlight - search, replace and highlight text in a document SYNOPSIS
odfhighlight "source.odt" "search string" -r "replacement" -o "target.odt" replaces "search string" by "replacement" in the file "source.odt", highlights each replacement with a yellow (default) backgound, then writes the resulting document as "target.odt" odfhighlight "myfile.odt" "search string" -color "green" highlights each occurrence of "search string" in "myfile.odt" with a green background color, without changing the text (without "-o" option, the changes apply to "myfile.odt" ARGUMENTS AND OPTIONS
Default behaviour With the "minimal" command line, with only a filename and a string as arguments, each matching string is highlighted with a yellow background and represented with the "Standard" style. Options -e --encoding "xxxxxx" character set to use, if different from the default -r --replacement "new string" "new string" is used as a replacement for "search string" -c --color "code" an RGB color code, expressed either as the concatenation of 3 comma-separated decimal values (each one in the range 0..255, ex: "72,61,139" for a dark slate blue), or a 6-digit hexadecimal number, preceded by a "#" (ex: #00ff00 for green) or, if a colormap is available and known in your OpenOffice::OODoc installation, a symbolic color name (ex: "sky blue") -s --stylename "name" the name of the color style (default: "MyHighlight"); the user must provide a style name that is not already in use in the document -p --property "property=value" This option can be repeated; each occurrence gives an additional property for the highlight style (font name, size, foreground color, ...). For example, with the combination of -p 'fo:color=#ff0000' and -p 'fo:font-size=18pt', the highlighted text will be made of 18pt-sized, red characters. In order to master these options, you should have some knowledge of the Form Objects (FO) vocabulary that is used in the OpenDocument specification. -o --output "filename" -t --target "filename" an alternative filename to save the modified document, when the source document must remain unchanged perl v5.14.2 2010-01-11 ODFHIGHLIGHT(1p)
