Well it's been a long time since I have used any OS besides apples and windows (raising my son). My principal would like our teachers to use UNIX as their mail system. That's not a problem, the mail system is like riding a bike you never forget. Here's my problem. She wants me to write a script... (2 Replies)

Hi All,
Have only recently returned to Unix.com due to other activities (*oh the shame of it all).
Anyways, when I initially came back to redesigned/revamped site I couldn't remember any of my logins. I'd originally thought that I'd used the UID of 'Cameron' but couldn't remember any details... (2 Replies)
Hi,
I've worked out that my server was getting clogged with the access_log.processed file.
I deleted it using the command

I also set that up as a crontab job for every Wednesday.
What I was wondering is the version using... (4 Replies)
I have a log file that I am processing. This contains messages from and to a server (requests and responses).
The responses to requests may not be in order i.e. we can have a response to a request after several requests are sent, and in some error cases there may not be any response message.

I have a master list of hosts, and a list of bad hosts. I want to filter out the bad hosts from the master list. I was trying a few for loops but it's not providing the desired result:

It showed a cleaning woman (probably in the evening, after most of the other employees had left work) happily typing commands on a dot matrix terminal (could've been a DEC LA120, IIRC) just because "unix is so easy to use, even a cleaning woman can use it!".

Howdy,
I clicked the rememberer me when I log in, and evidently I really do not understand what that means. I had hoped that at least it would remember my user name for the next time that I log in. However, when I log out, I see a message about cookies being removed and one other thing that I... (1 Reply)
Hello Friends,
I have observed one recent issue about ftp from windows to Linux.
Initially we had Solaris unix and any file sent from windows to solaris via ftp (binary or ascii) worked smoothly.

xls2csv
xls2csv(1) General Commands Manual xls2csv(1)NAME
xls2csv - reads MS-Excel file and puts its content as comma-separated data on standard output
SYNOPSIS
xls2csv [-xlV] [-f format ] [-b string ] [-s charset ] [-d charset ] [-q number ] [-c char] files
DESCRIPTION
xls2csv reads MS-Excel spreadsheet and dumps its content as comma-separated values to stdout. Numbers are printed without delimiters,
strings are enclosed in the double quotes. Double-quotes inside string are doubled.
OPTIONS -x print unknown Unicode chars as xNNNN, rather than as question marks
-l list known charsets and exit successfully
-cchar cell separator char. By default - comma.
-bstring
sheet break string. This string (by default - formfeed) would be output at the end of each workbook page. This string is printed
after page starting at start of line, but no linefeed would be automatically added at the end of string. Include newline at the ent
of sheet separator if you want it to appear on separate line by itself
-gnumber number of decimal digits in the numbers. By default maximal double precision (system-dependent macro DBL_DIG) is used.
-qnumber
set quote mode. In quote mode 0 cell contents is never quoted. In quote mode 1 only strings which contain spaces, double quotes or
commas are quoted. In quote mode 2 (default) all cells with type string are quoted. In quote mode 3 all cells are quoted.
-dcharset`
- specifies destination charset name. Charset file has format described in CHARACTER SETS section of catdoc(1) manual page. By
default, current locale charset would be used if langinfo support was enabled at the compile time.
-scharset
- specifies source charset. Typically, Excel files have CODE PAGE record, which denotes input charset, but for some reason you may
wish to override it.
-fformat
- specifies date/time format to use for output of all Excel date and time values. If this option is not specified, format, speci-
fied in the spreadsheet is used. On POSIX system any format, allowed by strftime(3) can be used as value of this option. Under MS-
DOS xls2csv implements limited set of strftime formats, namely m, d, y, Y, b, l, p, H, M, S.
-V outputs version number

${HOME}/.catdocrc, catdoc charset files and substitution map files (see catdoc(1) manual page for details,
