Hehe... it all boils down to choosing between the two evils then.

1. Do ssh to go directly to bash, but comment out the like that invokes "bash" in the .tcshrc EVERYtime I need to scp, or
2....

Yes, it does.

This works great but when I want to get something from the computer remotely using scp, it gets stuck. I mean, the scp command just hangs in there.


Any suggestion how to solve this issue?

Thank you very much. That works like a charm.

I have another question (maybe not very relevant). I want "open in terminal" option in the context menu in a folder in nautilus. I know it's possible...

Hi,

The computer that I use is on a network and has the exact same installation as other computers on the network (Ubuntu 10.04 LTS). When I open a new terminal window by default it opens a tcsh...

The code I posted will work if you just go to the top most directory and run it. It will read through all the sudirectories (the -r option for ls).

Let me know if you still have any trouble.

Hi Thibault, I use a lot of gnuplot too. Could you please PM me (or post the link here, now that you have 5 posts) the link to the website you mentioned?

Thanks in advance,

If you are searching in the current working directory:
find . -iname *.chr01 | sed "s;^.;`pwd`;"

For concatenation, you don't have to use sed as you don't have to print the full path:
find ....

"-r" is not a standard option. It allows one to use extended regular expressions like the one we are using above.

Sorry, I don't know how to do it using basic reg-ex.

You might find some help...

Save file as: filename


sed -r "s/^(.{12})(.{1})/\1/" filename | sed -r "s/^(.{17})(.{1})/\1/"


The first sed:
/^(.{12})(.{1})/ means select 1 ((.{1})) character that comes after the first...

-k1,1 tells sort that: first sort the file alphabetically using column 1 as the key. (1,1) means only use the first column.
The option just "-k1" would mean use the whole line as key starting with...

Yeah.
Generally, instead of
command < ( sort -k2,2 $FILE1 )

I write


sort -k2,2 $FILE1 > somefile
command somefile


So, basically, I would have written your code with 3 lines. So, I...

Thanks drl,

That's an awesome piece of oneliner. I frequently use sort but have never used join before. From now on I am going to.

Thanks royalibrahim and acmvillareal for your time and effort. Now I have to spend some time to try and understand the codes.

@royalibrahim
This is already compact (I'll have to try to understand...

Hi,

I have two, double column data files (file1 and file2). I want to add the second column of file2 to as 3rd column of file1. But, the 3rd column values corresponds to the values of the 2nd...

@vbe and @ctsgnb
Thanks a lot.

The one I liked the best was,


And even better,

# echo "z"
z

using shell script:

make a shell script (shell.sh) which takes 1 argument (data filename)

count=0
for i in `cat $1`
do
count=`expr $count + 1`
if [ $count -eq 1 ]
then
top=$i
fi
echo $i...

Hi,

I am writing a shell script where,


x=y
y=z


When I want to print z, I can do


$y


How do I use only "x" without any direct reference to "y" to print z?

Thanks,

I have a data file with 3 columns.

I want to plot a "map view" plot with column 1 and column 2 as x and y axis respectively.

The third column is 0 or one.

I want a plot that draws a line...

Using awk
If you just want to replace the . in the 3rd column

awk '{if($3==".") print $1" "$2" NA";else print}' infile

I'm staring at one of your frustrations right now.

Thanks. Yeah, I tried it and it works. "scottn" posted this command a couple of minutes ago.

I know this sounds dumb but I don't really know (never actually bothered to find out) why people use tcsh. So far I never have had a problem with bash that couldn't be solved with some sort of...

Cool. I was already happy, but I am happier to have another command in my arsenal.

I mostly work in bash. I can see this command working in both bash abd sh and not in tcsh, but I never use tcsh....

Wow. That was fast.
That's what she said. (Sorry, I couldn't help myself) :-D

Thanks a bunch. It does exactly what I want.
