The following script will accept from the keyboard a filename, later it will read it and process it line by line.
In this example we will just number the lines, print them and count the total number of lines in the file.
#!/bin/sh echo Enter the Filename to process read filename exec<$filename lineNumber=0 while read line do lineNumber=`expr $lineNumber + 1`; echo $lineNumber - $line; done echo "Total Lines Number: $lineNumber";
We had these log files that on most lines at the beginning there was a number followed by a dot and some times it had space characters.
The following sed command removes that prefix. and leaved intact the rest of the lines that do not have the prefix.
cat $log | sed '/^[0-9]*. */!d; s///;q';
e.g
Input: 123. Some text here. Output:Some text here.
The following sed script will remove all leading whitespace from each line by using a regular expression to match space characters and tabs.
cat $log | sed 's/^[ t]*//';
e.g
Input: Some text here. Output:Some text here.
The first command strips down the full path filename to the filename only ising the basename command.
filename=$(basename $filenamefullpath)
Afterwards you can see how to extract the file extension from the filename. There is no need to do this after issuing the above command since this command will just remove everything after the first from right dot (‘.’) — so make sure that the filename you are parsing has a dot or you will end up with wrong results (like the full path or a part of the full path if it contains a dot somewhere).
extension=${filename##*.}
Finally, by issuing the following command you remove everything after the first dot on the right (including).
filename=${filename%.*}
The g++ compiler does not support
`<?' and `>?'
which used to be the minimum and maximum operators any more and the user should use
`std::min' and `std::max'
instead.
