How about:
find $1 -type d \( \! -name '*\.gz' \) -print | grep -v ^$1$

Try
find $1 -type d \( \! -name '*\.gz' \) \( \! -samefile $1 \) -print

iirc AIX tar has a zip option, but I forget what it was...

A simple way could be:
#!/bin/ksh

for i in $( find $1 -type d -mtime +$2 -print )
do
tar cpf "$i.tar" "$i"
gzip...

It's simply a matter of parameters, gzip takes a filename and zips it up replacing the original file with the zipped file and adding the .gz exception.

The tar command on the other hand needs to...

That's because you're telling it to write to a tar file named 'Nov2010' (tar -f <filename>) - tar doesn't automatically add a suffix.

tar -cvpzf {}.tar.gz might work

Your problem is that you are trying to create a file (archive) with the same name as directory that you are compressing. Remember though, that directories in UNIX are just files, and you cannot...

Hi,
just try this,

grep 'inID' $line | nawk '{split($0,a,"inID=\"");b=substr(a,0,8);print b;}'


cheers,
Ranga:-)

not tested...
nawk ' /inID/ {for(i=1;i<=NF;i++){if($i~/inID/) {print $i}}' xmlfile

AFAIK, according POSIX standard this is not a text file. You can get some problems working with it (for example "cat THISFILE | while read line; do echo $line; done" wouldn't emit the last line)....

Hi,

Try next command:

$ perl -pe 'chomp if eof' infile

The ls | grep wasn't entirly useless it was testing for existance of a file matching the glob to avoid issues if no TEST_* files are in the dir.

You really can't edit-in-place like that. awk doesn't work that way. It'll either do nothing, or trash the entire file.

Just print in awk instead of printing to file, and do the redirection...

Hope this helps.

awk 'BEGIN{OFS=FS="|"}$11=="to follow"||$11=="tbc"||$11=="123456"{$11=" "}{print}' < file > newfile

Does this help


awk -v c=0 -F"|" '/HEADER/ { $2=c;print ; prev=c ; c=c+1 ;next} {$2=prev;print}' OFS="|" input_file

true, but the OP's description and the sample input/output contradict each other as well.
Given the 'description', here's the modified code:

nawk '$3=="HEADER" {$2=c++}$2=c' FS='|' OFS='|' myFile
