I want to write a script, with these arguments:
- the pattern to find in a file (that is text)
- the path where the files to analyse are located
- the minimum and the maximum n° of times the pattern is found.
I know how to handle the arguments, but I don't know how to do the "core" of the script, the part of script where I write the command using grep (or other command) in pipeline with all other command are needed.
The most difficult part of the script is that one in Bold.
what I have written is:
but it does't work
PS: I don't speeck english very well, so please be patient.
from here, you could use the head or tail function to find maximum or minimum of the file sctfile.srt
Thank you, I tryed your code and it works on my script, but I realized that if the pattern is present more times in the same line it's counted 1 only time, there a way of improving that script?
what about doing a sed to insert 'new line' after each found?
I am not sure if I have the sed command correct, but I think you get the idea. I * the changes. Because the file will now only have one keyword on a line, the wc -l command would give a truer count.
Good luck!
#! /bin/bash
pattern="good"
rm sctfile.raw 2>/dev/null
