    "unexpected newline or end of string" in XP script

    dir | gawk "{sub(/n, ,$0}" on Win XP gives the error above. dir | gawk "{print $5}" lists the files, one to a line. I want to remove the newlines. Any suggestions?

    Text table advantages and disadvantages

    I have need of a "read-only" set of tables, built from text files on the order of 10GB total. Other than the inability to perform DML on them, are there disadvantages to using Text Tables (i.e. is there is speed hit in queries)?

    gawk with WinXP not sure where to post

    I am trying to run the first awk script in O'Reilly's Sed and Awk, using a .bat file instead of Unix shell script. The script only works if it is on a single line in the .bat file. Original unix script: gawk -F, '{ print $4 \", \" $0 }' $* | sort | gawk -F, '$1==LastState{ print...

    multi line batch script problem

    I am copying an awk script from a book, trying to translate it to Windows XP from unix. It works if I put it all on one line in the script, but otherwise I get error messages referring to the line breaks. I tried ending the line with forward or backward slashes (a la C programming), but to no...

    use case question for xsl fo

    I have a simple task that I believe can be accomplished with xml-fo. I hope somebody can shed some light on how to approach this, as I am newbie with XML I have a repository of excerpts, each a few paragraphs long, each with a title. I need to make custom documents, with formatting (bold, etc.)...

    very puzzled; compiles but nothing happens

    Thanks, tbushmaker. My understanding of scoping is that the &quot;i&quot; inside the subroutine getline() will not clash with the &quot;i&quot; in main(). Am I misunderstanding you to say that they do clash, or do I misunderstand teh scoping rules? Appreciate the help, John

    simple makefile compilation question

    Thanks. Is the alias possible in Windows NT (which is where I do most of my work)? I looked in the help screen of teh command prompt window and the general NT help, but couldn't find anything. John

    very puzzled; compiles but nothing happens

    I didn't initialize &quot;i&quot; at top of the program. I have other problems, (an infinite loop) but at least I am getting output now. Thanks for the help.

    very puzzled; compiles but nothing happens

    Thanks, that helps. The other exercises in the book all took input from stdin, and this one was to act similarly. The getline() method is using getchar() to presumably wait for user input and feed it to the string (until \n or BUFSIZE is reached). My other uses of this subroutine had exactly...

    very puzzled; compiles but nothing happens

    I'm working through K&R C Programming Language, and wrote a program to remove comments from a C program. The other exercises from the book have been challenging, but I've done them all so far. I compile it with no complaints, and run it, but my shell comes back with no visible sign of anything...

    simple makefile compilation question

    I am starting out in C (as well as Linux), and want to automatically use the -Wall and -pedantic in gcc, as I understand that can be useful. How do I do this more or less automatically? In other words, how can I not have to always type: gcc -o hello -Wall -pedantic hello.c

    converting ut-8 (unicode) characters to an extended ascii

    I want to go through a text file coded in utf-8 and find the lines and words with occurences of non-ascii characters (codes > 127), and a table/hash of each character and how many times it appears. Then I want to convert the file to an extended ascii; three separate conversions are to: ISO...
