Full Discussion: Move File Containing More Than two "-" at 3rd Line To New Directory
Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers Move File Containing More Than two "-" at 3rd Line To New Directory Post 302939812 by xbin on Sunday 29th of March 2015 11:36:45 AM

A variation of RudiC's solution that should work in OS X. If your file names have spaces in the name then
Code:
awk 'FNR==3 && /[a-z]*-[a-z]*-[a-z]*-/ {printf"%s\n", FILENAME}' file* | xargs -I {} echo mv {} ./destination

And if your files do not have spaces in the name then
Code:
awk 'FNR==3 && /[a-z]*-[a-z]*-[a-z]*-/ {printf"%s\n", FILENAME}' file* | xargs -J {} echo mv {} ./destination

Remove the echo to actually move the file.

g-ir-compiler

g-ir-compiler(1)					      General Commands Manual						  g-ir-compiler(1)

NAME

       g-ir-compiler - typelib compiler.

SYNOPSIS

       g-ir-compiler [OPTION...] GIRFILE

DESCRIPTION

       g-ir-compiler  converts	one  or  more GIR files into one or more typelib.  It can either emit the raw typelib blob (default behavior) or C
       code (--code). The output will be written to standard output unless the --output is specified.

OPTIONS

       ---help
	      Show help options

	---code
	      Emit C code which is suitable for including in a shared library instead of a raw typelib.

	---output=FILENAME
	      Save the resulting output in FILENAME.

       ---verbose
	      Show verbose messages

       ---debug
	      Show debug messages

       ---no-init
	      Do not include an initialization snippet to register the typelib in the respository. This can only be used if --code is also  speci-
	      fied.

       ---includedir=DIRECTORY
	      Adds a directory which will be used to find includes inside the GIR format.

       ---module=MODULE
	      FIXME

       ---shared-library=FILENAME
	      Specifies  the shared library where the symbols in the typelib can be found.  The name of the library should not contain the leading
	      lib prefix nor the ending shared library suffix.

       BUGS   Report bugs at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/ in the glib product and introspection component.
