Hi,

I have a crappy hard disk and am trying to back up stuff from it onto my newer hopefully less crappy disk. There are dead sectors on the disk and some files can't be read (at all) so OpenBSD...

Yes!

Thanks for the reply, your code is much cleaner & robust than what I came up with as a solution. Nice and compact.

Also, I didn't realize awk had arrays.

Thanks again!

The solution lied commands "sort" and "uniq":

$ for i in `ps axuc | sed '1d' | awk '{ print $11 }' | sort | uniq` ; do sum=$(ps axuc | grep $i | awk '{ do { x+=1 ; y+=$4 } while ( x < NR )} END {...

I have the following snippet of script:

for i in `ps axuc | awk '{ print $11 }' | grep -c 1 awk '{ print $1 }'` ; do
ps axuc | grep $i | awk '{ do { x+=1 ; y+=$4 } while ( x < NR )} END...

I'm writing a shell script to display as much useful information on physical and virtual memory availability and usage as possible. I need a CLI tool to print these numbers for me.

The utilities...

Figured it out.

for i in 1 2 3 4 5; do
arr[$i]=$(awk 'NR=='"$i"' { print $2 }' examplefile)
print ${arr[$i]}

for i in 1 2 3 4 5; do
arr[$i]=$(awk 'NR=="$i" { print $2 }' file_with_5_records)
doneGot that far.

So YES: my syntax was incorrect to begin with. I've been dabbling with programming so...

I need to do something like this:

for i in 1 2 3 4 5; do
arr[$i]=$(awk 'NR="$i" { print $2 }' file_with_5_records)
done
That is, parse a file and assign values to an array in an...
