This works:

#!/apps/python/2.3.4/bin/python

import os
import sys
import time

user = os.getenv("LOGNAME").replace("LOGNAME=", "")
string = time.strftime("%m%d%y0000 " + user, time.gmtime())

Thanks.

Hello,

I have the following script which works fine when ran from the command line:

#!/apps/python/2.3.4/bin/python

import os
import sys
import time

user = os.getenv("USER")
string =...

BMDan, maxdepth is not standard; it only works on GNU find. My Solaris workstation does not have GNU find. Instead, a variation of a command posted by Perderabo...

Vijay, that does not work if a period is in the middle. See the following:

/tmp/tmp> ls -l
total 16
drwxr-xr-x 2 common 240 Jul 22 09:42 asdf.jkl
-rw-r--r-- 1 common 0...

Vijay, that does not work if a sub directory name contains a ".". You may think that's uncommon, but the first time I tried your command, it failed because the directory I was in had a period!

I recommend Franklin's solution. But here's another version:

#!/bin/ksh

if [ $# != 2 ]
then
exit 1
fi

while read i
do
while read j
do
set -A array $i
field7=${array[6]}...

If you really want to speed things up, store the contents of the first file in an array. Then read the records of the second file one by one and compare the seventh, 13th, and 14th records against...

Franklin's script runs really fast. If memory is an issue, though, try the following:

#!/bin/ksh

if [ $# != 2 ]
then
exit 1
fi

IFS="|"

while read i
do
set -A array $i

...

Just as an aside, when I process the first two files with that script, I don't get the output in third script. I get:

I've dozens of aliases defined. I don't want to create a script for each of them.
But here's what I trying to do. I'm writing a script that runs commands in a sequence. If one of the commands...

Is there a way to send the command to the shell where the script is being executed?

Not to hijack this topic, I've had problems like this before, except that I was passing variables to scripts, i.e.,

asdf="\( -name '*.hh' -o -name '*.cc' -o -name '*.c' \-o -name '*.h' \)"
find...

How can I solve this problem? This seems as if this can happen in any language I use.

Firstly, you're not going to get any output in temp2.txt because you are passing "-n" which suppresses output.
Secondly, I'm still trying to figure out why you can't run a command when the command...

They are shell constructs, but os.system() invokes the the shell. It is no different than the system() call in Unix. In fact, it probably calls system. That's why I see "sh: x: not found"

I'm not seeing that.
Here are the contents of temp.txt:
sed -n '/08465696_1215781522540/,/70225547_1215781581748/p' test1.txt

Here is my script, test:

#!/bin/ksh

sedcmd=$(grep sed...

I am not able to access the aliases in my environment within a Python script. If I pass the alias to os.system(), I get a message saying "sh: x: not found". I've tried sourcing my .bashrc file in...

Try this:

gawk \
'{
if(NR == 1)
{
prev = $NF
print $0
}
else
{
if($NF == prev)
print $0
else
{
print "\f"
print $0
prev = $NF
}
}

Here's what I did to get your output. This should give you idea on what to do:

gawk \
'{
if(NR == 1)
{
split($0, tmp);

for(i = 1; i <= NF; i++)
fields[tmp[i]] = i

print "Name...

You seem to be doing more than what you described. But here's what I did:

gawk 'BEGIN {print "Name Age Sex alias nfld xsd"}
{if(NR > 1) print $1 " " $2 " " $3 " " $6 " " $5 " " $7}' log.txt

This doesn't seem to be a Sun Solaris issue. Can this be moved to the Dummies forum?
