Problem when concatinating wildcard onto file location in bash script
I am having difficulty with the following script:
Essentially, there are a large number of files in the directory ~/data, each with a four-letter code at the beginning (eg. aaaa001 aaaa002 bbbb001 bbbb002 etc). The argument of this script ($1) is one of these four letter codes.
convertFile is a program written in fortran which takes N arguments, the first N-1 being the location of files that will be converted into one file, which will be outputted to the location in the Nth argument.
When I run (for example):
from the terminal, the "aaaa*" is expanded out and convertFile acts on every file in the expanded list (as one would expect). However, when I try to write a script to do this in an automated process, it doesn't expand out the files, instead passing the explicit directory location ~/data/aaaa* (where, for example, $1 = 'aaaa'). I don't know what's wrong, is there something awry with how I'm concatenating the strings?
How can I pass in an argument such as "*.k" to a bash script
without having to double-quote *.k and not having *.k
`glob` to match all files in the pattern?
I tried using noglob in my script but this didn't work the way I thought
it would.. expansion is still occuring, $# is higher than I... (3 Replies)
Hi,
I am writing a BASH script. In a directory I have a bunch of files of various filename structures. How do I list all the filenames that begin with either a capital or lowercase A or T. Is there one command that could replace the following 4:
ls A*
ls a*
ls T*
ls t*
Thanks.

Hi all
I need to copy the entire contents of one file into an existing file at a specific location. I know the exact line number where I need to put it. It appears I would use either sed or awk to do this, but I have been unsuccessful so far:
File A

line 2

Locale::Codes::Script(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Locale::Codes::Script(3)NAME
Locale::Codes::Script - standard codes for script identification
SYNOPSIS
use Locale::Codes::Script;
$script = code2script('phnx'); # 'Phoenician'
$code = script2code('Phoenician'); # 'Phnx'
$code = script2code('Phoenician',
LOCALE_CODE_NUMERIC); # 115
@codes = all_script_codes();
@scripts = all_script_names();
DESCRIPTION
The "Locale::Codes::Script" module provides access to standards codes used for identifying scripts, such as those defined in ISO 15924.
Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default ISO 15924
four-letter codes will be used.
SUPPORTED CODE SETS
There are several different code sets you can use for identifying scripts. A code set may be specified using either a name, or a constant
that is automatically exported by this module.
For example, the two are equivalent:
$script = code2script('phnx','alpha');
$script = code2script('phnx',LOCALE_SCRIPT_ALPHA);
The codesets currently supported are:
alpha, LOCALE_SCRIPT_ALPHA
This is a set of four-letter (capitalized) codes from ISO 15924 such as 'Phnx' for Phoenician. It also includes additions to this set
included in the IANA language registry.
The Zxxx, Zyyy, and Zzzz codes are not used.
This is the default code set.
num, LOCALE_SCRIPT_NUMERIC
This is a set of three-digit numeric codes from ISO 15924 such as 115 for Phoenician.
ROUTINES
code2script ( CODE [,CODESET] )
script2code ( NAME [,CODESET] )
script_code2code ( CODE ,CODESET ,CODESET2 )
all_script_codes ( [CODESET] )
all_script_names ( [CODESET] )
Locale::Codes::Script::rename_script ( CODE ,NEW_NAME [,CODESET] )
Locale::Codes::Script::add_script ( CODE ,NAME [,CODESET] )
Locale::Codes::Script::delete_script ( CODE [,CODESET] )

Locale::Codes::Script::add_script_code_alias ( CODE ,NEW_CODE [,CODESET] )
Locale::Codes::Script::delete_script_code_alias ( CODE [,CODESET] )
These routines are all documented in the Locale::Codes::API man page.
