Thanks 'durden_tyler' your code worked...but just to mention that it didn't work on Windows...
...
I think its due to the fact that interpreters like 'sed', 'Perl' ignores 'CR' (chariage return) characters on windoze..........
Don't know about "sed" on Windows, but that would be highly unusual for Perl on Windows:
The perl interpreter used in the example above is from the ActiveState Perl installed using MSI.
"vis" is just a small C program that makes non-printable characters visible in octal code.
I must remove hex characters 0A and 0D from several fields within an MS Access Table. Since I don't think it can be done in Access, I am trying here.
I am exporting a Table from Access (must be fixed length fields, I think, for my idea to work here) into a text format.
I then want to run a... (2 Replies)

Hello,
Yesterday I was looking for a way to grep for a tab in the shell, and found this solution in several places:
grep $'a' # Grep for the letter 'a' between two tabs
I'm fine with most of this, but I don't understand what the $ (dollar sign) before the first quote does. It doesn't work... (7 Replies)

While I do know some control characters need to be escaped, can normal characters also be escaped and still work the same way? Basically I do not know all control characters that have a special meaning, for example, ?, ., % have a meaning and have to be escaped... (11 Replies)

linsert
linsert(3tcl) Tcl Built-In Commands linsert(3tcl)__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________NAME
linsert - Insert elements into a list
SYNOPSIS
linsert list index element ?element element ...?
_________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION
This command produces a new list from list by inserting all of the element arguments just before the index'th element of list. Each ele-
ment argument will become a separate element of the new list. If index is less than or equal to zero, then the new elements are inserted
at the beginning of the list. The interpretation of the index value is the same as for the command string index, supporting simple index |
arithmetic and indices relative to the end of the list.
EXAMPLE
Putting some values into a list, first indexing from the start and then indexing from the end, and then chaining them together:
set oldList {the fox jumps over the dog}
set midList [linsert $oldList 1 quick]
set newList [linsert $midList end-1 lazy]
# The old lists still exist though...
set newerList [linsert [linsert $oldList end-1 quick] 1 lazy]
