    replace specific line of files with "some expression"

    Hi, I have some webpages that I built using a template. The first 38 lines of each html file are the same. I'd like to use Perl to change line 38 to say <div id = "body" class="clearfix"> (It currently is <div id="body">) I was thinking of trying this: perl -ple '$_ = "<div id=\"body"\...

    I'd like to use IMPLICIT NONE for a subroutine called spline.f attached below. However, trying to declare all variables correctly is giving me erroneous results. The arrays are being passed by another routine that is calling spline.f. If I try to use IMPLICIT NONE as the only change, I get...

    kshell script: brackets in for loop

    Hi, I have a script that runs successfully on an old HP-UX system as a shell script, though on Linux it seems it needs to be a kshell script. In any case, I have several files that start as a few letters (like myname) and end with two digits 0-9 (so the possible file names can be myname00-99...

    Hi there. I have been searching for the time derivative HTML symbol that is compatible in most browsers. It looks like a single dot above the quantity. The closest thing I could find was the &middot; --but I do not think that is correct.

    I am wondering how to use getdate on HP UX. Based on the man page for getdate, I should just need to type getdate("yesterday"); to return yesterday's date. However, I get a syntax error when I do this. The man page also mentions creating a user defined template of date formats, but if this is...

    setting up automated ssh in cronjob

    I have a colleague who has set up pass phrases/keys using ssh-keygen. He would like to write a script that uses ssh to read a read-only file containing the passphrases so that the script can be automated (as in a cronjob running in the middle of the night, and no one is awake to enter...

    question about date command on HP UX

    Hi, I was wondering if there is an equivalent command on HP UX that will produce the same output as RHEL date --date="1 day ago" does? When I did a man date on a HP UX machine, no --date option was found.

    Using AWK to get part of filename

    Hi, First question: can I use awk in a Fortran program? Second: I'd like to use substr to get the part of a file itself (not the contents of the file). For example, I have many files in a directory with the same prefix and a YYMMDD.dat suffix. I want to pick out the YY part of the filename...
