Is this a homework assignment? Note that homework and coursework questions can only be posted in
the Homework and Coursework forum and posts there must follow
special homework rules.
If it isn't homework, please be a little bit less cryptic. What
.,
?,
!, and spaces?
Are you saying that some of your filenames contain those characters and you only want to list files that have names containing seven characters but only if none of those seven characters are a period, question mark, exclamation point, or a space?
Are you saying that some of your filenames contain those characters and you only want to list files that have names containing seven characters (ignoring any period, question mark, exclamation point, and space characters when counting the number of characters in the file's name).
Are you saying that you don't want
ls to include any spaces, tabs, or newlines between the filenames it lists?
Or are you asking for something else that I haven't guessed might be what you're trying to do?

When listing the file systems (using ls -ltr) , if the group names are longer the group name is getting truncated.

mojomojo::formatter::wiki
MojoMojo::Formatter::Wiki(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation MojoMojo::Formatter::Wiki(3pm)
NAME
MojoMojo::Formatter::Wiki - Handle interpage linking.
DESCRIPTION
This formatter handles intra-Wiki links specified between double square brackets or parentheses: [[wiki link]] or ((another wiki link)). It
will also indicate missing links with a question mark and a link to the edit page. Links can be implicit (like the two above), where the
path is derived from the link text by replacing spaces with underscores (<a href="wiki_link">wiki link</a>), or explicit, where the path is
specified before a '|' sign:
[[/explicit/path|Link text goes here]]
Note that external links have a different syntax: [Link text](http://foo.com).
METHODS
format_content_order
Format order can be 1-99. The Wiki formatter runs on 10.
strip_pre
Replace <pre ... with a placeholder
reinsert_pre
Put pre and lang back into place.
format_content
Calls the formatter. Takes a ref to the content as well as the context object.
format_link <c> <wikilink> <base> [<link_text>]
Format a wikilink as an HTML hyperlink with the given link_text. If the wikilink doesn't exist, it will be rendered as a hyperlink to an
.edit page ready to be created.
Since there is no difference in syntax between new and existing links, some abiguities my occur when it comes to characters that are
invalid in URLs. For example,
* [[say "NO" to #8]] should be rendered as "<a href="say_%22NO%22_to_%238">say "NO" to #8</a>" * [[100% match]] should be rendered as "<a
href="100%25_match>100% match</a>", URL-escaping the '%' * but what about a user pasting an existing link, "[[say_%22NO%22_to_%238]]"? We
shouldn't URL-escape the '%' or '#' here. * for links with explicit link text, we should definitiely not URL-escape the link:
"[[say_%22NO%22_to_%238|say "NO" to #8]]"
This is complicated by the fact that '#' can delimit the start of the anchor portion of a link.
* "[[Mambo #5]]" - URL-escape '#' => Mambo_%235 * "[[Mambo#origins]]" - do not URL-escape * "[[existing/link#Introduction|See the
Introduction]]" - definitely do not URL-escape
Since escaping is somewhat magic and therefore potentially counter-intuitive, we will: * only URL-escape '#' if it follows a whitespace
directly * always URL-escape '%' unless it is followed by two uppercase hex digits * always escape other characters that are invalid in
URLs
expand_wikilink <wikilink>
Replace "_" with spaces and unescape URL-encoded characters
find_links <content> <page>
Find wiki links in content.
Return a listref of linked (existing) and wanted pages.
