Perfect, thanks. FYI if anyone needs the screen capture script... webkit2png (http://www.paulhammond.org/webkit2png/)

I am trying to capture screenshots from a huge list of URLs. I am able to manually capture images of individual pages; that is, I simply run the following command to get a screenshot of Foo.com...

Made some progress, but still need help formatting the output:

Hi all, thanks for reading the post.

I'm trying to parse hundreds of log files in a directory. One log file looks similar to below:

Investigator : Jim_Foo
Custodian :...

I'm having trouble piping grep results/error to a file. Why can't I redirect these messages into a file?

I am using grep to match a pattern, but the output is strange.

$ grep -r -o "pattern" *

Gives me:
Binary file foo1 matches
Binary file foo2 matches
Binary file foo3 matches

To find the...

Interesting. When I open Notepad in Windows and click on save as, there are 4 options for encoding: ANSI, Unicode, Unicode big endian, UTF-8.

The logs I am referring to are encoded, at least...

Not having much luck with dos2unix. How would I change all files in a directory from UNICODE to UTF-8?

Can't get this to work...

dos2unix -f UNICODE -t UTF-8 *

Available in a repository?

Thanks for the quick response, @vbe.

I need help converting a directory of *.txt with Windows line ending to UTF-8 character encoding and Unix/Linux line ending.

I see, this works. Thank you.


sed -e '/custodian/b' -e '/packaged by/b' -e '/package name/b' -e '/Total Data (MB) Read/b' -e '/Begin Time/b' -e d log1.txt |

I did, and I apologize for not following - I'm not well versed with sed. Where did file2 come from? How is it matching the regexp I specified?

@g.pi, I'm still not able to follow.

I don't understand your instructions.

I'm trying to take out strings from log files and add them to a csv.

For example, in the directory now, there are 2 log files. I get the following results:

sed -e '/custodian/b' -e '/packaged...

How do you remove the space after any "="?

Something like?
awk -F"[':' '= ']"

Is this going to work...

user@ubuntu:~/Desktop$ grep -e "\(packaged by\)\|\(employee\)\|\(file name\)\|\(Total Data (MB) Read\)\|\(Begin Time\)" log.txt
packaged by = Ron Mexico
employee = Michael Vick
file...

The date stamp gets jacked up because it removes the ":" in the time.

6/13/2011 10

Is it possible to do something like:
awk -F"[:=]" '{print $2,":",print $3,":",print $4}'

awk -F"=" '{print $2}'

This works, but I also have ":" in the logs. Any way to combine "=" and ":"?

Thanks for the quick response.

My current code is:
user@ubuntu:~/Desktop$ grep -e "\(packaged by\)\|\(employee\)\|\(file name\)\|\(Total Data (MB) Read\)\|\(Begin Time\)" log.txt
packaged by = Ron Mexico
employee =...

The dir will look something like this:

/var/log/foologs/
..
foo1.log
foo2.log
foo3.log
foo4.log


I'd like the script to go into each log file, and then append to the CSV.

So if...

Yes, it should work. I'll give this a shot. Thank you for your help.

Let's say that each log file looks like this:

licensed to = Client X
packaged by = Bill Gates
custodian = Steve Jobs
Time Zone = Eastern Standard Time
session name =...

I'd like to copy strings from a log file and put them into a CSV.

The strings could be on different line numbers, depending on size of log.

Example Log File:

File = foo.bat
Date = 11/11/11...
