Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers Grep : Filter/Move All The Lines Containing Not More Than One "X" Character Into A Text File Post 302934695 by Nexeu on Tuesday 10th of February 2015 03:07:14 AM

Yes, I had noticed there are line without "x" is also included for the first command. At least that removed lines with double "x" or more.

Code:
grep -v "x.*x" .location/*.txt

And for that 2nd, it removed anything but lines with Only one "x".

Code:
grep x .path/*.txt | grep -v "x.*x" > output.txt

I kinda chose first option as I noticed some lines without "x" seems to be what's important. Smilie

But I was wondering if there might be a command with such functionality though:

- It will grep 33 .txt files and find lines without repeated "x" and it will write it into individual 33 .txt output files in a different directory

I have the clue something like this:

Code:
for file in .path/*.txt; do grep -v "x.*x" "${file%.*}.txt" -nobs -width 999 "$file" ; done

BUT, it will do the execution in the same directory. [In other words, I am screwed as the output has same extension and file name Smilie ] Thank god I didn't do that Smilie

gensprep(8)							 ICU 50.1.2 Manual						       gensprep(8)

NAME
gensprep - compile StringPrep data from files filtered by filterRFC3454.pl SYNOPSIS
gensprep [ -h, -?, --help ] [ -v, --verbose ] [ -c, --copyright ] [ -s, --sourcedir source ] [ -d, --destdir destination ] DESCRIPTION
gensprep reads filtered RFC 3454 files and compiles their information into a binary form. The resulting file, <name>.icu, can then be read directly by ICU, or used by pkgdata(8) for incorporation into a larger archive or library. The files read by gensprep are described in the FILES section. OPTIONS
-h, -?, --help Print help about usage and exit. -v, --verbose Display extra informative messages during execution. -c, --copyright Include a copyright notice into the binary data. -s, --sourcedir source Set the source directory to source. The default source directory is specified by the environment variable ICU_DATA. -d, --destdir destination Set the destination directory to destination. The default destination directory is specified by the environment variable ICU_DATA. ENVIRONMENT
ICU_DATA Specifies the directory containing ICU data. Defaults to /usr/share/icu/50.1.2/. Some tools in ICU depend on the presence of the trailing slash. It is thus important to make sure that it is present if ICU_DATA is set. FILES
The following files are read by gensprep and are looked for in the source /misc for rfc3454_*.txt files and in source /unidata for Normal- izationCorrections.txt. rfc3453_A_1.txt Contains the list of unassigned codepoints in Unicode version 3.2.0.... rfc3454_B_1.txt Contains the list of code points that are commonly mapped to nothing.... rfc3454_B_2.txt Contains the list of mappings for casefolding of code points when Normalization form NFKC is specified.... rfc3454_C_X.txt Contains the list of code points that are prohibited for IDNA. NormalizationCorrections.txt Contains the list of code points whose normalization has changed since Unicode Version 3.2.0. VERSION
