Dear All,
To find the length of the longest line from a file i have used wc -L which is giving the proper output...
But the problem is AIX os does not support wc -L command.
so is there any other way 2 to find out the length of the longest line using awk or sed ?
Regards,

I have a number of unix text files containing fixed-length records (normal unix linefeed terminator) where I need to find odd records which are an incorrect length.
The data is not validated and records can contain odd backslash characters and control characters which makes them awkward to process... (2 Replies)
Hello everyone...
I need to find out, how to find longest line or possibly lines in several files which are arguments for script. The thing is, that I tried some possibilities before, but nothing worked correctly.
Example
when i use:
awk ' { if ( length > L ) { L=length ;s=$0 } }END{ print... (23 Replies)
Good Morning/Afternoon All,
I am using the nawk utility in korn shell to find the longest field and display that result.
My Data is as follows:
The cat ran
The elephant ran
Milly ran too
We all ran
I have tried nawk '{ if (length($1) > len) len=length($1); print $1}' filename

Hi Guys,
I was going some trial and error to see if I can find the longest word in a text.
I was using Pipes because they are easier to use in this case.
I was stuck on this for a while so I thought I'll get some help with it.
I tried this code to separate all the words in a text in... (4 Replies)

Hi,
I am trying to figure out how to get the length of the longest column in the entire file (because the length varies from one row to the other)
I was doing this at first to check how many fields I have for the first row:
awk '{print NF; exit}' file
Now, I can do this:
awk '{ if... (4 Replies)
Hi,
I have a issue, I need to loop through a comma delimited file and check for the length which exceeds specified length , if Yes truncate the string.
But my problem is , I do not have to check for all the fields and the field lenght is not same for all the fields.
For ex:
Say my line... (9 Replies)

fb.modes
fb.modes(8) Linux frame buffer utils fb.modes(8)NAME
fb.modes - frame buffer modes file
DESCRIPTION
/etc/fb.modes contains an unlimited number of video mode descriptions. The general format of a video mode is:
mode
geometry <xres> <yres> <vxres> <vyres> <depth>
timings <pixclock> <left> <right> <upper> <lower> <hslen> <vslen>
options <value>
endmode
OPTIONS
geometry options:
xres visible horizontal resolution (in pixels)
yres visible vertical resolution (in pixels)
vxres virtual horizontal resolution (in pixels)
vyres virtual vertical resolution (in pixels)
depth display depth (in bits per pixel)
timing options:
pixclock
length of one pixel (in picoseconds)
left left margin (in pixels)
right right margin (in pixels)
upper upper margin (in pixel lines)
lower lower margin (in pixel lines)
hslen horizontal sync length (in pixels)
vslen vertical sync length (in pixel lines)
other options:
the first value of this options is the default
hsync {low|high}
the horizontal sync polarity
vsync {low|high}
the vertical sync polarity
csync {low|high}
the composite sync polarity
extsync {false|true}
enable or disable external resync. If enabled the sync timings are not generated by the frame buffer device and must be pro-
vided externally instead. Note that this option may not be supported by every frame buffer device
laced {false|true}
enable or disable interlace. If enabled the display will be split in two frames, each frame contains only even and odd lines
respectively. These two frames will be displayed alternating, this way twice the lines can be displayed and the vertical fre-
quency for monitor stays the same, but the visible vertical frequency gets halved
double {false|true}
enable or disable doublescan. If enabled every line will be displayed twice and this way the horizontal frequency can easily
be doubled, so that the same resolution can be displayed on different monitors, even if the horizontal frequency specifica-
tion differs. Note that this option may not be supported by every frame buffer device
INTERNALS
Generally a frame buffer display is organized as follows:
+---+---------------+---+---+
| | ^ | | |
| | | 5 | | |
| | v | | |
+---#################---+---+
| # ^ # | |
| # | # | |
| # | # | |
| 1 # | 2 # 3 | 4 |
|<->#<------+------>#<->|<->|
| # | # | |
| # | 6 # | |
| # | # | |
| # v # | |
+---#################---+---+
| | ^ | | |
| | | 7 | | |
| | v | | |
+---+---------------+---+---+
| | ^ | | |
| | | 8 | | |
| | v | | |
+---+---------------+---+---+
1 left margin
2 xres
3 right margin
4 horizontal sync len
5 upper margin
6 yres
7 lower margin
8 vertical sync len
The area bordered with `#' is the visible display area. Horizontal and vertical frequencies can now easily be calculated, for this the sum
of horizontal or vertical values are important
htotal = left + xres + right + hslen
vtotal = upper + yres + lower + vslen
The length of one line can now be calculated with pixclock
line = pixclock * htotal
and we have the horizontal frequency
hfreq = 1E12 / line = 1E12 / (pixclock * htotal)
To get the vertical frequency vtotal must eventually adjusted. If the display is laced, vtotal must be halved or if the display is a dou-
blescan one, vtotal must be doubled. Now we can calculate the length of one frame
if (lace) vtotal /= 2
if (double) vtotal *= 2
frame = vtotal * line
and we get also the vertical frequency
vfreq = 1E12 / frame = hfreq / vtotal
