Hello, I have two bash scripts like the following:

script 1:
#!/bin/bash
var=WORLD
bash path/to/second/script/script2.bash



script 2:
#!/bin/bash
echo "HELLO $var"


I expected the...

*sigh* such a simple answer. Also the single quotes helped too. Thanks!

So I have an input file that looks like this:



I want to use sed so that I can replace the string "$(variable)" but I can't seem to get it to work. I used the following one line to test, but no...

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, I have this in a bash script, so I'm trying to use bash.

Hello,
I created the following (snippet from larger code):


echo -n "A1: "
read A1

VERIFY=$(echo -n $A1|wc -c)
if [ $VERIFY -gt 8 ]; then
echo -e "TOO MANY CHARACTERS"
fi

echo...

i think i may have found a flaw in this code. It seems as though if there is a space in any of the lines, it's ignored/thrown out, even if it's unique.

Can someone please help me?

it works! Thanks!

Hello All,
I have two VERY large .csv files that I want to compare values based on substrings. If the lines are unique, then print the line.

For example, if I run a

diff file1.csv and...

basically, if I could get a list of all duplicated ages and another list of all unique values, that would work. Then I could just concatenate them back together. For the duplicated age, descending...

hello, I have a large file (about 1gb) that is in a file similar to the following:



I want to make it so that I can put all the duplicates where column 3 (delimited by the commas) are shown on...

Hoping I understand your problem...

I think you should use either a while loop to awk to figure this out since you would have to go line by line. For example, the script would look at line one....

way better than mine!

thanks itkamaraj. I found a different variation to solve my problems. I used to isolate block one from the other blocks.

sed -n '/topLevel numberBlock="BLOCK1"*/,/<\/topLevel>/p' inputfile.xml

I tried searching the forums, but couldn't find anything relevant to my question.

I have an xml file like the following:

<topLevel numberBlock="BLOCK1">
<item="content1" title="Content 1">...

i understand that the script works for "REJECT" but how can this be modified to accept wildcards. For example, if input is:


titleA
titleB
TEST FILLER
titleC
TEST


and REJECT=TEST, I...

ok, I think i'm starting to understand it. I just assumed the code could be universal where I could simply swap the strings.

I created a new input, to test the code:

titleA
titleB
TEST
titleC
TEST


and used the following:

# Recall N lines ago up to 9 lines
function last(N)
{
if(N>L) return("");
...

Thanks corona. If I want to substitute "titlex" with another string, how can I do that? In the code, I replaced "title[^xX]" with another string to test, but it outputs the new searched string.

I don't want to have titleB and titleD in my output. With "grep -v" I would get titleA, titleB, titleC, titleD, and titleE.

I found the following, which would produced an output of just titleB...

I was wondering if it was possible to grep a pattern based on the surround text. For example, if i have an input file like this:


titleA
titleB
titlex
titleC
titleD
titlex
titleE


And I...

Nice :b:!! The naming convention modifcation will definitely help when sorting/merging.

Now I just need to merge files based on size.

Hello, I have a large file (2GB) that I would like to split based on pattern and size.

I've used the following command to split the file (token is "HELLO")

awk '/HELLO/{i++}{print > "file"i}'...

thanks. I have a text file with a bunch of Results('xxx', 'yyy', ), so i was hoping i didn't have to use the command echo.

I have the following text as an input text:

input.txt

Results('Toilet', 'Sink', )


and i want to remove the last comma so the output is

output.txt

Results('Toilet', 'Sink' )

...

Hello, I have an input file that I need formatted. I was hoping I could use bash to get this done.
