This is for the big guns...
I have been modifying AudioScope.sh to bring it inline with more current practices.
I hit a bug which IS not present in the original code but was after modification.
Shell check first:-
Here is a longhand input to the bash version on 'sh' and yes I did have this inside my code, and what a RPITA it was too. (This also fails inside the version of bash for OSX 10.7.5; I don't know about current versions as i don't have them.)
Code:

1234567890
AMIGA:barrywalker~> echo "$(( ${#txt} - 1 ))"
9
AMIGA:barrywalker~> echo "$(( #txt - 1 ))"
sh: bad substitution: no closing `)' in "$(( #txt - 1 ))"
AMIGA:barrywalker~> _
Either "$/${}" is needed or it is not, which is it?
From now on I will be using $ and ${} as I don't want this aggro again...

Is it possible to combine a regular expression with a aritmetical expression? For example, taking a 8-numbers caracter sequece and casting each output of a grep, comparing to a constant.

Hi all,
How am I read a file, find the match regular expression and overwrite to the same files.
open DESTINATION_FILE, "<tmptravl.dat" or die "tmptravl.dat";
open NEW_DESTINATION_FILE, ">new_tmptravl.dat" or die "new_tmptravl.dat";

Hello All,
I'm trying to extract the lines between two consecutive elements of an array from a file.
My array looks like:
problem_arr=(PRS111 PRS213 PRS234)
j=0

do
k=`expr $j + 1`
sed -n "/${problem_arr}/,/${problem_arr}/p" problemid.txt

Hello All,
Not sure why this is happening...
When the following If Statement is evaluated for some reason it is creating a file in the CWD called '0'. I've seen this happen
before, just not in an If Statement...
CODE:
if
then
DIR_NAME="$1"
DIR_SIZE=0
STATUS=""

arithmetic
ARITHMETIC(6) BSD Games Manual ARITHMETIC(6)NAME
arithmetic -- quiz on simple arithmetic
SYNOPSIS
arithmetic [-o +-x/] [-r range]
DESCRIPTION
arithmetic asks you to solve problems in simple arithmetic. Each question must be answered correctly before going on to the next. After
every 20 problems, it prints the score so far and the time taken. You can quit at any time by typing the interrupt or end-of-file character.
The options are as follows:
-o By default, arithmetic asks questions on addition of numbers from 0 to 10, and corresponding subtraction. By supplying one or more
of the characters +-x/, you can ask for problems in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, respectively. If you give
one of these characters more than once, that kind of problem will be asked correspondingly more often.
-r If a range is supplied, arithmetic selects the numbers in its problems in the following way. For addition and multiplication, the
numbers to be added or multiplied are between 0 and range, inclusive. For subtraction and division, both the required result and the
number to divide by or subtract will be between 0 and range. (Of course, arithmetic will not ask you to divide by 0.) The default
range is 10.
When you get a problem wrong, arithmetic will remember the numbers involved, and will tend to select those numbers more often than others, in
problems of the same sort. Eventually it will forgive and forget.
arithmetic cannot be persuaded to tell you the right answer. You must work it out for yourself.
DIAGNOSTICS
``What?'' if you get a question wrong. ``Right!'' if you get it right. ``Please type a number.'' if arithmetic doesn't understand what you
typed.
