Search Results

Thanks Bipin.

I'm building on it to meet my requirement. I will keep you posted thanks.

That works thanks.

but, is there a way to generalize it ? there's no fixed number of key-value pairs.

Hi,

I'm getting key-value pairs in a string as follows -

0000xm7zcNDIkP888vRqGv93xA7:176n00qql||9700005405552747,9700005405717924,9700005405733788|unidentified,unidentified,unidentified

Hi experts,

e.g.

i/p data looks like

0000xm7zcNDIkP888vRqGv93xA7:176n00qql||9700005405552747,9700005405717924,9700005405733788|unidentified,unidentified,unidentified||

Hi Experts,

I've been trying simple grep to search for a string in a huge number of files in a directory.

grep <pattern> *

this gives the search results as well as the following -

grep:...

U r right.. my bad.. shouldn't have echo'ed it!

That worked, thanks!

btw.. how do you get the binary code? is there any conversion or standard list available ? please share.

Suyog.

Even in my case, the above code works.. my problem is, when I call it in the SQL using `echo $delm` it prints "\t" :p has anybody tried it calling in an sql ?

No.. the same result... It doesn't seem to detect '\t' as a tab, what could be the reason ?

Hi,

I'm using a shell wrapper to trigger a teradata sql fastexport script as follows:

#!/bin/ksh

export delm=`echo "\t"`

fexp <<!
SELECT
COALESCE(TRIM(CAST(col1 AS VARCHAR(10))),'')...

can you suggest one solid link or book that covers these basics...?

Experts,

This is slightly beyond my comprehension but let me try to put it in my words to verify.

. combining cat & Cut will cause spawning and will utilize more CPU threads which is fine for...

Thanks!

but in my case it did not work. I ran it on the following para from wiki abt grep


stored it in a file names "Text"

and ran..
lines=5
awk -v ln=$lines '/may also behave/ {n=ln}...

Hi,

I have a query as follows :

suppose I am matching a string in a file say "start from here"
and I want to pick up 'n' number of lines () from the matched string. Is there any way to do that...

Hi,

I've got a query regarding which of the following is more efficient & why -

cat <filename>|cut -d'*' -f2- > <newfilename>
or
cut -d'*' -f2- <filename> > <newfilename>

Thanks.

Thank you!

you are right. one last question is cut faster than sed ?

to avoid spaces I have modified the code but getting 2 junk characters at the beginning of every line . want to use cut -c...

Thanks ! I can see slight saving on time.

but , is there any other way to do it ? any other command than sed ?

HI Experts ,

I'm using the following code to remove spaces appearing at the end of the file.


sed "s/[ ]*$//g" <filename> > <new_filename>

mv <new_filename> <filename>

this is...

Ok.

Thanks a lot!

:-)

good question.

I feel so because , I would like to generalize this piece of code.

To handle the unwanted characters except for [0-9],[a-z],[A-Z],@,.,-

is there any way to find out...

Hi Experts,

here is a background to my problem :

I am exporting data from teradata using fastexport utility, as varchar data.
This pads additional two bytes (2 places as seen in notepad) in...

sorry for the late response .

Please ignore the first two o/p s .

1. In the 3rd o/p , even though I have selected first two matching occurrances it is selecting 3 characters

2. If I reduce...

Hi ,

I have been trying various combinations of . & * but I have not yet completely understood how the placement of "." affects the o/p & can't use the sed for this purpose very convincingly....

Hi Scrutinizer/felipe ,

I have been going through teh tutorials & they are very helpful thansk a lot!

However , I tried two slightly different statements on the same string & the o/p varied...

Hi ,Thanks again... I have never used sed this way before , can u explain me the use of "...\" , ".*" & "n\" ?or direct me to a some page which will explain this usage ?

Yes,

but since in this case I know where the date field starts , I want to make it indeppendant of teh date location.. is there anyway by which I can check the occurance of date & print it ?
