Maybe I could just use this command to replace first ' at 'filename.txt' with mv /Users/Nexeu/Documents/Dict/. That will replace all first ' expect first line of the file-content.
Code:
sed -i 's/txt\'/n\'/mv \/Users\/Nexeu\/Documents\/Dict\//g' 0H
sed -i 's/txt\'/n\'/mv \/Users\/Nexeu\/Documents\/Dict\//g' 1H
sed -i 's/txt\'/n\'/mv \/Users\/Nexeu\/Documents\/Dict\//g' 2H
sed -i 's/txt\'/n\'/mv \/Users\/Nexeu\/Documents\/Dict\//g' 3H
sed -i 's/txt\'/n\'/mv \/Users\/Nexeu\/Documents\/Dict\//g' 4H
sed -i 's/txt\'/n\'/mv \/Users\/Nexeu\/Documents\/Dict\//g' 5H
sed -i 's/txt\'/n\'/mv \/Users\/Nexeu\/Documents\/Dict\//g' 6H
sed -i 's/txt\'/n\'/mv \/Users\/Nexeu\/Documents\/Dict\//g' 7H
sed -i 's/txt\'/n\'/mv \/Users\/Nexeu\/Documents\/Dict\//g' 8H
sed -i 's/txt\'/n\'/mv \/Users\/Nexeu\/Documents\/Dict\//g' 9H
sed -i 's/txt\'/n\'/mv \/Users\/Nexeu\/Documents\/Dict\//g' 10H
....
Then I will replace the ' from .txt' with respective folder directory so it will go where it should and execute it.
OK. So you aren't using a Linux system, and you aren't using a BSD system, and you aren't using OS X. What operating system are you using? Show us the output from the commands:
Code:
uname -a
type awk find rm sed xargs
You can't run sed with a directory as an input file. And if you use those sed commands on the list files, you'll destroy the list files.
The only reason xargs should complain about mismatched quotes would be if some of your filenames contained single quotes. If you still have the list files produced by my script, please run the following script and show us the output:
If you don't still have the list files, please rerun the script I provided in post #40 in this thread to recreate the list files and then run the script above.
I'll look for your response to this this afternoon. I have other things I need to do for the next three or four hours...

And seems like I have a few single quoted files also
Assuming you don' t have any tab characters in your filenames, this should work for you. I added a function to process filenames before giving them to xargs to appropriately quote the single-quotes you have in some of your files. I modified the both awk scripts to use tab as the field separator instead of single-quote in the parsed target directory pathname and the source filename between the awk scripts. And, the script now sets $PATH to avoid the non-standard xargs utility that was causing some of your problems.
Code:
#!/bin/ksh
# USAGE: mvhyphen
# DESCRIPTION:
# This script depends on having two variables defined:
# SRCDIR: Absolute pathname of directory containing files to be
# processed. Results are unspecified in there are any
# subdirectories in this directory.
# DESTDIR:Destination base directory. This can be an absolute
# pathname or a pathname relative to $SRCDIR. (whichever
# of these is shorter is preferred.)
# This script moves to $SRCDIR and processes files with names
# ending with ".txt". Files with names containing a space are
# ignored. The 3rd line of each file is read. If that line does
# not match the pattern '^[[].*[]]', the file is also ignored.
# Otherwise, the number of hyphens between the '[' and the first
# comma or ']' after that are counted. For each unique count
# value, a list file is created in $DESTDIR named "listNH" where
# "N" is the count value. After the lists have been created,
# files in each list will be moved from $SRCDIR to $DESTDIR/"N"H.
# $DESTDIR and $DESTDIR/*H will be created if they are not already
# present.
# This script is OS X specific. It is tuned to work within the
# number of files awk can have open at once (stdin, stdout, and 17
# more files) and uses the non-standard xargs -J option. This
# script whould be able to handle up to 33 different values for
# the number of hyphens found in the 1st word in the 3rd line in
# the files being processed.
# Initialize variables...
DESTDIR=../Syllable
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin # Avoid non-standard utilities.
SRCDIR=/Users/Nexeu/Documents/Dict
# Move to source directory and process the files found there...

mkdir -p "$DESTDIR" || exit 2

# Print a note showing the name change and return the modified

nameout = namein

Reason: Add the missing code to remove the list files after they have been successfully processed.
