    Outlook 2013 - Close original message window when deleting?

    Hi, I know Outlook 2013 and preceding versions have a "Close original message when replying or forwarding" option... but how about when deleting? As I work through my email each day, many of which contain references to support tickets or links to other external sites to do some work or...

    How to parse syslog.conf for errors?

    I haven't touched Solaris for a few years now, but the most common problem used to be using spaces instead of tabs. syslog.conf at the time only supported tabs as field separators. Annihilannic tgmlify - code syntax highlighting for your tek-tips posts

    getting rid of tailing zeroes in floating number

    This works. Unfortunately complex because sed -r doesn't seem to support greediness (?) in ERE: sed -r 's/(\.([0-9]*[1-9])?)0+$/\1/;s/\.$//' By contrast, perl does: perl -pe 's/(\.[0-9]*?)0+$/\1/;s/\.$//' But the awk solution is probably the must human-compatible anyway. :-) Annihilannic...

    Failed in installing XML::LibXML

    Stupid customers

    I'd use AVG Free over those two abominations any day! (Neither would have saved your customer from CryptoLocker in my experience...) Annihilannic tgmlify - code syntax highlighting for your tek-tips posts

    compare lists of comma separated options

    Seems good enough, I would probably have sorted the two lists and used 'diff' and customised output format, or 'comm' and my own format handling, but I don't think it would be any better really. And yes, you could use perl/awk/whatever but it would just be the same code as you wrote in a...

    "]" as field separator in awk

    Another trick, if the first character in a character class is ], it is treated literally. Likewise if the last character is [. So this should also work: awk -F '[]/[]' '{print $(NF-2),$(NF-1)}' And you aren't in \\\\\escape hell... :-) Annihilannic tgmlify - code syntax highlighting for...

    Unix Script for realtime log monitoring and performing tasks

    I wrote a similar script in Perl to filter HP-UX syslogs. Basically it does something similar to a 'tail -f' on the log file, matches substrings and invokes various commands or logic based on what is matched. It's too specific to our requirements to share here, but yours sounds equally...

    Selective RS in AWK

    I see you're trying over at Stack Overflow, but I concur with them, that code yields: Jul 2014: data disk -delim :60000 ...given your sample data. So something must be different with your real data. Did you make any progress since? Annihilannic tgmlify - code syntax highlighting for your...

    Vanity Plates "XIV"

    Haha... unrelated, but reminds me, to combat Jehovah's Witnesses climing OVER our fence and knocking on the BACK door of our previous house (the front door was inside the garage...), we put up signs on the side gates: Do you believe in life after death? (Skull & Crossbones) Trespass...

    Word abuses

    Reminds me of the Little Johnny joke which prefaces this document: http://brooklyn-wac.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/raimes-errors-windows-1991.pdf ...which happens to be interesting and relevant in itself! Annihilannic tgmlify - code syntax highlighting for your tek-tips posts
