How to detect awk and nawk?

I have 10 scripts which use awk/nawk extensively.

I have to always change awk to nawk and nawk to awk when i deploy all my scripts to different types of servers as some support nawk while other support awk.

Can you propose a solution that without having to tweak my 10 scripts at several places everytime i deploy them to a new set of servers the awk-nawk problem should be automatically addressed.

Note: I cannot change my user .profile as it is used by other users as well.

Hi.

I need to append/prefix an & character to every 'single' & character (not when there are 2 or more grouped together) I find in a file. I can do it using this cmd:
Code:
cat ${file} | sed -e 's/&/&&/g' > ${new_file}
How can I modify this to ensure I only replace single &'s and not operate on multiple groupings like && or &&& etc.?

Many thanks.

Shell Variable visibility

January 13, 2017, 7:47 am
$

Dear All,

Saying, I have two distinct functions with the same goal (counting lines containing a specific pattern in a file MyFile).

To perform that operation, I used a "while loop" with two different syntax ("grep" command would be much more better in that case but this is not the concern in our case) !:
(1) cat MyFile | while read -r line;do; ... ;done;

(2) while read -r line; do; ...;done < MyFile;
Inside the while loop, I used a variable var to store the result.

My questions:

(1) is that the expected behaviour to not be able to get the value of var outside the while for the first syntax ?
(2) what kind of system's difference between both syntax ?

Thanks a lot for your attention, :)

cf. examples below:

Code:
[x004191a@xsnl11p317a log]$ echo $SHELL
/bin/bash

Please let me know what's the best method / procedure as well as the Solaris 8 commands for accomplishing the following tasks on a production Sun Enterprise 250 Server running Sun Solaris 8 Operating System:

1. Make an exact image/copy of the SCSI Hard Drive in the Sun E250 Server.

2. Use the image produced in step 1 above and copy it on to a new SCSI hard drive to be placed in a different Sun E250 Server to be used in the lab environment.

Please explain the step-by-step procedure and/or commands, and provide me with links to relevant potential documentation online (if available).

MAC at @reboot, like some cellphone

I want to change my MAC at reboot, so making it a cron job like the following in BSD.
Can I do this in the jail for the user, setting it as a command or should it be a script?

I would set it as a command

Code:
openssl rand -hex 6 | sed 's/\(..)/\1:/g; s/.$//'
just to test it, it works.



Code:
@reboot  usernamesomebody    openssl rand -hex 6 | sed 's/\(..)/\1:/g; s/.$//'
I am asking this, because the BSD handbook tells me to try it first as a homebrew script in the really
special environment, that is giving me a headache like the following

Code:
env -i SHELL=/bin/sh PATH=/etc:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin HOME=
And my second question is, would it be better to set it in the system crontab
Code:
/etc/crontab
or just user crontab?

So if someone can help me out, thanks in advance!!!

X11 Button Event not Reported

January 14, 2017, 9:05 am
$

I have a peculiar problem (aren't they all?). A new program that uses X11 fails to get any ButtonRelease event reported to it after the XNextEvent call. That is, mouse clicks don't work. The program gets others, such as exposure and keyboard events, but not button press or release. Other programs running on the same hardware obviously do get all mouse clicks. Compounding the problem, this failure occurs under Ubuntu and Mint, but all events are reported under Raspbian -- that is, under Raspbian the failure does not occur.

This is the setup instruction:
Code:
i = XSelectInput(dpy,win, ExposureMask | KeyPressMask |
        ButtonReleaseMask | KeyReleaseMask);
After issuance i contains 1.

I've read (seemingly relevant parts of) the X11 manual without gaining a clue. I'm hoping that someone else has experienced this problem and found the cause.

Would this question be more appropriate in another group? Which one?

Hi All,

I have recently installed Oracle Linux 6.7 server on Virtual box 5.1. The installation went smooth and i was able to create a VM on Windows 7 as host.The issue is that the default desktop that i see is not at the default resolution and i am only able to see half of the screen.

Initially i though it was related to Virtual box, but guest editions is properly installed and functions associated with guest additions such as shared drive and clipboard sharing are working as expected.

Other thing that i noticed was the missing Xorg.conf file. I tried to create a default one by giving the following command

Code:
Xorg :0 -configure
but it gives the following error

Code:
Fatal server error:
Server is already active for display 0
Not sure where i might be going wrong. Request your expert help here.

Lookup in another file and conditionally modify it inline

January 16, 2017, 12:12 am

Hi,

I have an issue where i need to lookup in a given transaction file and if the same transaction is found in another file, then i need to replace a few columns with some other value.
Finally, the changed and unchanged lines must be printed and stored in the same source file.

for example :
Code:
f1
100
200
300
Code:
f2 (tran number is second field)
1,100,AAA,BBB,X,CCC
5,200,AAA,BBB,Y,CCC
3,400,AAA,BBB,X,CCC
output should be

Code:
1,100_P,AAA,BBB,X,CCC
5,200_T,AAA,BBB,Y,CCC
3,400,AAA,BBB,X,CCC
as you can see, only 1st and 2nd record have the matching tran from f1. hence they are changed, record 3 will remain as is.

I have done the following but its a very direct approach and takes a huge amount of time.
Code:
cp main_input.txt tmp1.txt;
while read tran_num
do
    awk  'BEGIN{FS=","; OFS=","} { if ( $2=='${tran_num}' && $5 == "X")  {$2=$2"_P";print}  else if ($2=='${tran_num}' && $5 == "Y") {$2=$2"_T"; print} else {print} }' tmp1.txt > tmp2.txt;
    cp tmp2.txt tmp1.txt;
done < lookup_tran_file.txt
mv tmp1.txt file_input_file.txt
the above works but i dont like the fact that the tmp file is created everytime to preserve the previous modification done by awk. In other words, if f1 will contain 10000 records to be checked, the tmp file will get overwritten 10000 times. This solution is also takin 1-2 hrs to finish depending on the input file size.
