When I tested df | awk '{ print $NF }' I discovered that it outputs a column of fields rather than the last field The solution was to use the 'echo' command. echo `df` | awk '{ print $NF }' Now I get the share folder /root/network/GOLD-XP-2016-SharedDocs __________________________________________ Y...

Here's another way using tail.

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash 
#chime.wav
#cat header chime.wav > hourlychime.sh ; chmod +x  hourlychime.sh
hours=`date +"%-l"` 
size=`stat -c %s chime.wav`
for (( i=1; i <= $hours; i++ )); do  tail -c $size hourlychime.sh | aplay;  done
exit;

I have the same version- yad --version 0.38.1 (GTK+ 2.24.30) After "create folder" is clicked and a name entered, a "tab" writes the new folder and returns the dialog to a "no selected directory" mode. Or you could click on the dark section to the right of the entry. Th...

@mavrothal, AFAIK, a widget can have only one associated variable. So a single tree with TREE1 and TREE2 variables isn't possible. @MochiMoppel, thanks for catching my typo! Fixed. Perhaps this also might be useful. # get fields from a tree selection # example file echo 'name1 | cat1 | desc1 | repo...

I suspect the "complain" is because box_* infrastructure is not in older puppies. Installing libstardust pet should fix that. Update also coreutilites to 8.21+ and older puppies should be OK. mavrothal, You're quite right. That test was with Precise 5.7.1, which does not have " /usr/...

gyro, I like this approach. There was a little item that crept into the code. error_msg () line 219 /usr/lib/gtkdialog/box_splash -timeout 30 -close box -icon gtk-dialog-warning -bg red -text "$1" (probably should be) yaf-splash -box_splash -timeout 30 -close box -icon gtk-dialog-warning -...

Perhaps this will do.. if.....

#RRGGBB = (8 bits each)
#RRRRGGGGBBBB = (16 bits each)

then-
pick first two of each group

Code: Select all

# color_12='#440044004400'
#  cut -c 1-3,6,7,10,11 <<< "$color_12"
#444444

Hey sunburnt,

file "/root/.XLOADED"

and it should be false or missing before loading. Usually caused by improper shutdown.

Best regards to you in the heat.

Anyway, time entry can be tricky. You would need more tests to catch invalid times like 25:11:22 or 22:1:122.

Perhaps adapting this approach-

Code: Select all

 [[ $time_entry =~ ^[0-2]?[0-9]:[0-5][0-9]:[0-5][0-9]$ ]] && echo yes

Hi All. I have a problem about size of window. When I just use <notebook>, or i use show-tabs="true", The size of notebook is so wide. Then I think, by use show-tabs="false", it can be fixed. But no. Anybody know how to normal it? Thank you. recobayu, You might specify the windo...

LazY Puppy,

How about this for lines in bash-

Code: Select all

line='some line to replace'
line_2='a replacing line'
# echo ${line/$line/$line_2}
a replacing line

Text blocks would be tricky.

Bert,

It seems that "image-on-top" isn't what it appears to be.

Some years back, I remember doing a workaround where I renamed one of the Gnumeric allowable types for the default file opener. (defaultxxx -eg defaulttexteditorHOLD). Made a redirection script that contained exec rxvt -hold -e "$@" then linked that redirection script back to "default...

Converting scanned bitmap images of graphs from books and journals to csv files (data points) is done quite well by this windows program. http://www.chem.uoa.gr/misc/specscan.htm I wonder how it works? Is there web code that could do similar? kjdixo, I've often thought of converting bitmaps to svg ...

Another approach would be to grab the data between "BEGIN:VBODY" and "END:VBODY" (that's assuming all messages only go there)

Code: Select all

sed  '/^BEGIN:VBODY/,/^END:VBODY/!d;//d' msgfile

Then any multi-line data after "TEXT" could be handled.

This is a very engaging discussion. MochiMoppel mentioned- @seaside Wouldn't fdate=${fdate%% *} remove the time strings? Yes, starting from the end of the string remove all chars up to and including the furthermost space. Greengeek, this is probably not a good time to bring this up, but isn't this s...

greengeek, you mentioned.... The first time i tried these they seemed to work ok but now I try them again it seems that they do not process the final text field. No matter how many Date/TEXT lines I add, the last TEXT field is always missing. Is it just me? Probably, there is no blank line at the en...

Here's a one liner sed...

Code: Select all

sed  -e 'N;s/\(.*\)\n\(.*\)/\1\2/' -e 's/Date:/ /' -e 's/TEXT:/ /' -e 's/\.[0-9]\{4\}//' msgs

It just appends the line below to the one above and removes unwanted items.

gyro,

Code: Select all

FSTYP="`df --output=fstype \"$imgFile\" | tail -1`"

Another way to get the filesystem type

Code: Select all

file "$imgFile"|awk '{print $5}'
