Thanks jlliagre & otheus. I think that's the conclusion Dave came to, too. What confused me was the output from df -kh ., with the /home/myuser next to the 100%, and not, say, /home or...

What's an "auto mounted file system"? And how would I know?

(I'm still busy googling, but I haven't found anything helpful for me as a user without admin rights)

Only a minimal number of top-level directories...

The fine details depend on how you want to do this: grep? awk?... anything on the command line? ...

I haven't been able to do anything since yesterday evening because my account is full to the brim. Very annoying on a Friday evening when no admin will be in until Monday morning. Of course, I might...

"grep -w" is the 1st thing to come to my mind...

But what do you mean by "exact"? What would not be "exact" in your case? "Naw" instead of "New", or "NewYork" because it's longer,...? In that...

Maybe I don't get the problem, but I would simply use grep:

grep -vi "xyz" fileA | grep -vi kal > fileBThe -i is for "case insensitive" because you didn't use capitals in "cut all lines which have...

Sorry for being unresponsive - I'm still working on that script :-/

When I do that, it gets stopped again after a few seconds :-/

I use bash, on Debian lenny, logged in via ssh from a Mac OS X...

Sorting in Perl can be tricky, but this is a classic: google "perl sort hash by value".


foreach $key (sort {$records{$a} <=> $records{$b}}
keys %records) {
print...

More completeness: Try "recode" to convert between a wide variety of encodings. Can be installed using macports on the Mac.
$ recode -l

I don't know about putting it in your path, but you could alias "ssh" to "ssh -i /whatever/path". For some reason I never got to the bottom of, ssh doesn't find my keys either on our system, so I...

Hi,

I've been wondering about this for a while and I just don't know where to start looking. Some of my scripts always get stopped when I start them with
$ script.plx &in the shell (bash, on...

Try
$ sort -u abc.txt -o abc.txt

Oh wonderful :-) A bash built-in I didn't know about and a command I had completely forgotten about (jobs). New toys to read up on and play with.

And I sort of know what commands I want to know...

Because I start processes which will run a while (between 10 minutes and half an hour), send them in the background, then work on a different but related project for a while, but keep on getting...

It does wait for me, but sometimes in the mean time so much output is produced that I reach the limit for scrolling upwards.

I thought maybe they were saved somewhere, maybe under /proc or...

Hi,
I would like to be able to return to the messages printed in the shell when a process is done, but I have no idea where to look for them.

Why not just use scp on the command line (for one file)? If you have sftp, you probably have scp installed... "man scp" should help.

I also tried using the "underspecified" version:
LC_ALL=fr_FR.UTF-8 xterm -fn '-*-*-*-*-*--14-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-*'The result is the same :-/

I know of two menus I can call up with the mouse....

I need to use sort, uniq, grep, wc,... and the like to work with lists of words in UTF-8 (the "words" being phonetic transcriptions using the IPA). I have been using Google a lot and I even found...

Incredible... You guys have just solved in mere minutes a problem I've been struggling with for two years! Those "thanks" come from the heart... :-)

Hello,

I'd like to open a bunch of windows on a server/servers from a script using ssh. The point is to run a tool several times (often a quite high number of times) with different parameters, but...

As I understand it, private keys should be specific to one machine.

But apart from that, when you create a private key, a public key counterpart is also created. In order to use the keys to...

It seems the admins have done that for me. I didn't realize that when I posted.

What remains is the problem of making everything in the directory group-writable automatically. I seem to remember...
