How to convert relative path to absolute path?
Hello Everyone,
I want to convert
Relative Path - /home/stevin/data/APP_SERVICE/../datafile.txt
to
Absolute Path - /home/stevin/data/datafile.txt
Is there a built-in tool in Unix to do this or any good ideas as to how can I implement this.

Hi,
I have a file with about 60 lines of path:
app-defaults/boxXYZ.......
I want to change this to /my/path/goes/here/app-defaults/boxXYZ, but of course vi doesn't like the regualr :s/old/new/ command.
Is there any other quick way to do this?
Thanks ;) (2 Replies)

GPGV(1) GNU Privacy Guard GPGV(1)
NAME
gpgv - Verify OpenPGP signatures
SYNOPSIS
gpgv [options] signed_files
DESCRIPTION
gpgv is an OpenPGP signature verification tool.
This program is actually a stripped-down version of gpg which is only able to check signatures. It is somewhat smaller than the fully-blown
gpg and uses a different (and simpler) way to check that the public keys used to make the signature are valid. There are no configuration
files and only a few options are implemented.
gpgv assumes that all keys in the keyring are trustworthy. By default it uses a keyring named 'trustedkeys.gpg' which is assumed to be in
the home directory as defined by GnuPG or set by an option or an environment variable. An option may be used to specify another keyring or
even multiple keyrings.
RETURN VALUE
The program returns 0 if everything is fine, 1 if at least one signature was bad, and other error codes for fatal errors.
OPTIONS
gpgv recognizes these options:
--verbose
-v Gives more information during processing. If used twice, the input data is listed in detail.
--quiet
-q Try to be as quiet as possible.
--keyring file
Add file to the list of keyrings. If file begins with a tilde and a slash, these are replaced by the HOME directory. If the file-
name does not contain a slash, it is assumed to be in the home-directory ("~/.gnupg" if --homedir is not used).
--status-fd n
Write special status strings to the file descriptor n. See the file DETAILS in the documentation for a listing of them.
--logger-fd n
Write log output to file descriptor n and not to stderr.
--ignore-time-conflict
GnuPG normally checks that the timestamps associated with keys and signatures have plausible values. However, sometimes a signature
seems to be older than the key due to clock problems. This option turns these checks into warnings.
--homedir dir
Set the name of the home directory to dir. If this option is not used, the home directory defaults to '~/.gnupg'. It is only recog-
nized when given on the command line. It also overrides any home directory stated through the environment variable 'GNUPGHOME' or
(on W32 systems) by means of the Registry entry HKCUSoftwareGNUGnuPG:HomeDir.
EXAMPLES
gpgv pgpfile
gpgv sigfile [datafile]
Verify the signature of the file. The second form is used for detached signatures, where sigfile is the detached signature (either
ASCII-armored or binary) and datafile contains the signed data; if datafile is "-" the signed data is expected on stdin; if datafile
is not given the name of the file holding the signed data is constructed by cutting off the extension (".asc", ".sig" or ".sign")
from sigfile.
FILES
~/.gnupg/trustedkeys.gpg
The default keyring with the allowed keys.
ENVIRONMENT
HOME Used to locate the default home directory.
GNUPGHOME
If set directory used instead of "~/.gnupg".
SEE ALSO
gpg2(1)
The full documentation for this tool is maintained as a Texinfo manual. If GnuPG and the info program are properly installed at your site,
the command
info gnupg
should give you access to the complete manual including a menu structure and an index.
