zip -r forum_backup  ~/public_html/forum/*

I'd like to add date elements to the file name, so that the zip file created is automatically formed as

    forum_backup_05182013.zip

or something similar

Thanks

Thanks

i am calling it like this awk -f awkscript file

in bash i can get it to work the way i want using

END{




for...



printf "%d\t%d\t%d\n",x, a[x],b[x] | "sort -t $'\t' -k3,3rn -k2,2rn"

but this does not work bourne shell on solaris.

as an experiment i did this

 printf "%d\t%d\t%d\n",x, a[x],b[x] > "testfile"

then on the shell i did this

cat testfile | sort -t "`printf '\t'`" -k3,3nr -k2,2rn

and this works fine.

My issue is not sure how to insert that back into my awk script as i get confused with all the ""'` etc

printf "%d\t%d\t%d\n",x, a[x],b[x] | "sort -t "`printf '\t'`" -k3,3nr -k2,2rn"

is error

ive tried different things but cant figure it out

cheers

Edit: Fixed per Watael's suggestions.

I figure someone may get some use out of this, and there aren't many "Shell Scripting" code-snippets, so I'll put it here.

This is an example of what you can do with BASH, or possibly other shells, and it's just a neat thing to see. So I offer this up for your amusement, I've tested it and combed through it to make sure there's no hidden tricks. As far as I can tell it only uses a few commands like echo, printf, sleep, and eval, with if statements and color codes.

The Matrix (matrix.sh):

also,i was trying to write a script that would filter out a pattern in a .txt file and display the count of the same. Say my pattern is king, and there are 4 "king"s in the txt file .. also there are two "taking"s .. shouldnt the count be 6? m getting 4.
command -- grep -i "king" | wc -l

looking for healthy replies ..

//A function that just returns a value//
int my_function()
{
    return 0xbaba;
}

I saved the code as basic.c
I issue the command
$gcc basic.c
in the Cygwin terminal

And I get the error:
gcc: error: spawn: No such file or directory

I already had enough trouble installing GCC under Cygwin. Cant figure out what this means. Please Help!
Thanks in Advance!

New to shell scripting. While trying hands at it I came across the operators -z -o in the if block.
Any relevant info would be appreciated

if [ -z "$xa_" -o "$va_" == "yes" ]

cheers guys

                        vi $flnm `| p | esc | :x`       # ERROR

                fi
        else
                echo "Directory does not exists."

vi commands are not working in shell script.....I know am missing right format of its use.
Any Suggestions ?

export PATH = $PATH:/scripts/pyhon

when I change the cmd to something like "ls" or "open foo.java" the code will works.

Any idea why?

one file created on Windows and another was made on Ubuntu,

i want to use this command:

comm -12 file1 file2

how do i do that?

var=96.33% from 120

how do i get 96.33 from $var?

i have

du -sh `find ./ -user $USER -type f`

which gives

8.0K    ./.a
8.0K    ./t
4.0K    ./cat/A
4.0K    ./a

using -s has no effect.

using du -sh by itself includes the space for files not owned by me and also includes space used by folders themselves.

I want to be able to add all of the above and displayed in readable format automatically.

At this stage i am happy to include the space used for folders or not, doesnt matter.

Any tips would be appreciated.

and how to create log file of the above mentioned output, if simulation takes hours. I want for each iteration the value is saved and in the end whole output is declared as an array or string.

Need Help in this, help me as soon as possible if there is any error so I can discuss with you people.

DOPC    1024
PW      30903
CL-     1
arg01   1

My output file should be

DOPC    1024
PW      100
CL-     10
arg01   1

I have used this following command for the single substitution and it works well.

read no_water
read length


sed s/"PW      30903"/"PW      $no_water"/ arg01.top >arg$length.top

But I want to do two substitutions by one sed command. Is it possible?
I have tried like this but it doesn't work

sed -e s/"PW      30903"/"PW      $no_water"/ ; s/"CL-     1"/"CL-     $length"/ <arg01.top >arg$length.top

Can anyone help me in this regard?

I have dates like 20130402 (y-m-d i.e 2ndApr13)
Dates are 20130402, 20130404, 20130409, 20130412

if date is 20130402 out put is 20130408 , if date is 20130412 output is 201304015

dd="20130402"
echo $dd
This gives me current dates next monday , date -d "next monday" +%Y%m%d
How to find the next monday of this given date?

VALID_BRANCHES="4.2.1 4.1.0 4.3.1 4.2.2"

for brnache in $VALID_BRANCHES

    if [ "$1" != "$brnache" ];
    then
        echo "it isn't"
        continue

If the user guesses incorrectly, the script prompts the user “Guess
higher” or “Guess lower” as appropriate and allows the user to guess again.

If the user guesses correctly, the script terminates printing out how many guesses the
user needed.
For example:

Guess my secret number (0­-100): 101
Thats not between 0 and 100
Guess my secret number (0­-100): 80
Guess higher
Guess my secret number (0­-100): 85Guess lower
Guess my secret number (0­1-00): 82
Right! You guessed my secret in 3 guesses.

I'm writing a script to get content of web pages on different machines and compare them using their md5 hash

getting web pages content and generation md5 hash works perfectly

but I'm a blocked when comparing them

if [[ ( "$checksum" -ne "$checksum" ) ]]

can you guide me how i could accomplish this

thanks in advance

I’m trying to make a powershell script that will copy files to and FTP server, but the destination folder needs to be generated each time the copy starts. In lieu of having a ton of issues trying to copy the source folder onto a remote FTP site using powershell, I thought of maybe just adding a piece to my shell script which will pre-create a folder with a specific name before starting the file copy. This way, the files will have a place to go besides the root share on the FTP server. I'm able to connect to the FTP site and manually use the makedir command, but articulating that into a script is proving troublesome.

Does anyone have an example of a simple powershell script that will create a folder on an FTP directory?

I'm new to Powershell and i'm attempting to create a script which will copy a folder to a spesific directory on an FTP site. I did some Googling and all I seem to come up with are ways to copy the folder contents, but not the folder itself. Is there a easy to copy an entire folder to an FTP site using Powershell?
