File names with spaces

File names with spaces

[Theo. Sean Schulze]

Hello,

I am trying to write a bash shell script that will translate spaces in file names into underline characters.  This is the script as I have it now:


for file in `ls`
do
	echo $file
	newfile=`ls ${file} | tr '[:space:]' '[_*]'`
	echo File is named ${file}
	echo The new file is named ${newfile}
	# [[ -s $newfile ]] || (mv $file $newfile)
	sleep 2
done

The lines that begin with echo and the sleep line are for debugging.  What they have shown me is that the $file is getting set to the first word in the file name on the first iteration, the second word on the second interation, etc.  (The file names look like "001 of 150 files", "002 of 150 files", etc.)  So, on the first iteration, $file is egual to "001", on the second iteration $file is equal to "of", etc.  Yet, if I go to the directory and issue `ls`, the filenames are shown as one would expect with the whole four word filename on one line.

Can anyone give me a hint on how to fix this so that the whole filename is loaded into $file?

TIA,
Sean

You can try to adapt this example from The Advanced Bash Scripting Guide:
http://www.tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/moreadv.html#EX57

It deletes the file, but it shouldn't be too hard to adapt to your needs.

Re: File names with spaces

[Theo. Sean Schulze]

Thanks, that did help, although it didn't solve the problem.  I now recognize that the problem is in assigning the variable.  Both my version with ls and the version with find in the example give the expected results when printing to the console, but they both fail when used to assign a string including spaces to a variable.

I need to find a way to maintain the integrity of the string as I assign it to the file variable.  I tried `echo (ls -1)` and `echo "(ls -1)"`, but neither works.  Changing the parentheses to brackets doesn't help either.

Cheers,
Sean

Assigning variables does not happen in the `ls -1' statement. This only
generates strings. You need a command that read's the variables correctly.
Use `read', as in:

ls -1 | while read file ; do echo "$file" ; done 

or

find . -type f | while read file ; do
 echo "$file"
done

or more exotic, array version.

IFS=$'\n' eval 'lines=( $(cat < $file) )'
# now you have a array of lines.... which can be proccessed further..

These all where tested and work just fine.

[SOLVED] Re: File names with spaces

[Theo. Sean Schulze]

J.,

Thanks for your suggestions.  While googling comp.unix.shell today, I found yet another method.  I was not aware that "*" when used by itself matches every filename in a directory.  Apparently, part of the problem I was having was a side effect of ls and find.  Here is the script that I used:

#!/usr/bin/bash
for file in *
do
	newfile="`echo "$file" | tr '[:blank:]' '[_*]'`"
	mv "$file" "$newfile"
done

I also learned something important about tr.  I was using [:space:], but that is not appropriate here.  [:space:] includes horizontal as well as vertical whitespace.  That means I was transforming linefeeds as well as spaces.  [:blank:] is exclusively horizontal whitespace, which is what I needed.

Thanks to all of you who contributed.  I appreciate your help.

Cheers,
Sean

No problemo,

btw: 4 out of 5 pages on teamfinders.org are generating http 404 not found 
messages. I think you should have a critical look at all the http links in
the main page.

BTW,

please remember that `blank' is a GNU extension, regarding portability
issues.. etc..

~$ man isblank

J.

p.s.
Please use a more sane line-wrapping.

This shouldn't be a problem, since I will only be using it on GNU/Linux.  Also, [:blank:] is a character set descriptor for tr.  I scanned the source for tr and I don't see any calls to isblank.  Should be ok for my limited usage.

I wasn't aware that there was a problem with my line wrapping.  I have posted to the list a number of times, and you are the first to mention it.  I am using mutt with vim as the editor, and it softwraps to the width of the xterm.  It doesn't hardwrap at all.  What is the problem specifically?

	Now these errors are a bit more worrisome, and this is as far as I've
been able to get.  Here is my kernal info

Linux version 2.4.18-24.8.0 (bhcompile@tweety.devel.redhat.com) (gcc
version 3.2 20020903 (Red Hat Linux 8.0 3.2-7)) #1 Fri Jan 31 07:28:55
EST 2003


Has anyone out there seen similar errors?  Do you think the problem is
really with gcc, or am I off base?  I've done some research, and I don't
know what I'm supposed to be cross-compiling to.  

Thanks

[details deleted]

The current version of avifile is 0.7.32 (20030219), available for download 
at http://avifile.sourceforge.net/ .

The version you are trying to compile is so old that only luck would make 
it compatible with the current g++ compiler and its libraries. (The 
cross-compiler check result is just fine, BTW ... it merely confirms that 
you are compiling the source for the same architecture, presumably i86, 
that you are compiling it on.) A quick glance at the error listing is not 
enough to let me spot the problem, except to note that all the individual 
errors reported are the same in character ... the compiler objecting to 
attempts to cast a variable from a type to the same type ... why the 
compiler treats that as an error is not immediately apparent to me, to be 
honest.

One other general comment: the move from g++-2.95 to g++-3.02 is causing 
headaches everywhere, and I don't know which of them your RH system uses 
(to find out, start with "ls -l /usr/bin/c++" and keep folloing symlinks 
until you get to a real name). The newest version of avifile is written to 
work with g++-3.02 and its headers and libraries 
(libstdc++-5.something_or_other).

I'd suggest you try again with the current source, and report any problems 
you have with it, either here or on the avifile mailing list 
(avifile@prak.org; join it at the sourceforge site listed above).

file transfer via telnet

[ichi]

I year or two back, I remember reading about a way to transfer 
a file using telnet.  It think it involved redirection from one 
tty to another, but I don't remember the details.  I now find
myself in a situation with telnet access, but no ftp (or anything
else I could use to upload files).  Do any of you guys know the
telnet method?

Cheers,
Steven

This might not help, but if you have ssh access you could use scp (secure
copy).

Re: file transfer via telnet

[Eckhardt, Rodolpho H. O.]

If I'm not mistaken, you cannot do that because telnet transfers only ASCII caracters or
something like that (terminal related caracters)... There isn't a way to tell it to
transfer something in binary (like ftp's "binary").

But if you find a way, please e-mail it to me!

Isn't there some way to solve this with uudecode and uuencode? I don't
know how, but those programs make it possible to transfer binary files
over ASCII-only mediums.

From the man-page uudecode:
Uuencode and uudecode are used to transmit binary files over transmission
mediums that do not support other than simple ASCII data.


If someone knows *how* to do it, plz let the list know...

Telnet is one of the oldest base proto's arround. So where you want to
look is: http://www.rfc-editor.org

Start at RFC856

I think that was rsh, not telnet, and man rsh tells the rules for that,
in case you have rsh.

However, to downoad a file by telnet, capture stdout so:

telnet hostname | tee logfile
....
uuencode remotefile remotefile
exit
tr -d "r" < logfile | uudecode

Note remotefile is named twice in the uuencode: first is the name it is
to be uudecoded to, next is the input to uuencode (uou could use
redirection or a pipe instead, by default uuencode operates on stdin.

To upload, I guess you could use telnet's ! command, but how exactly
excapes me.

Ok, I understand. But what is this 'tr -d "r"' for?

He's trying to remove the octal '\015' or '\r' newline terminator. BUT the
tr -d 'r' command removes the ascii character 'r' as in octal '\162'.

Little mistake.. I guess. This could disrupt potentialy the encode file.

references:
man ascii

B.T.W.
tr -d '\015' works also als a DOS to UNIX newline converter. I have it as
a handy alias in my .bashrc.
   alias nodos="tr -d '\015'"

nodos < my_msdos_newline.txt > my_unix_newline.txt

It is a typo for

tr -d "\r"

to remove the carriage returns.  Most versions of uudecode don't like
then, especially on the "end" line.  IIRC slackware had a "fromdos"
program to do it, but tr works just as well for uuencoded data - there
are no control characters in the data itself.

tr -d "r" shouldn't trash anything, but it won't do what I wanted it to,
either.  And I tested the whole thing before I put it in the mail wrong.
