decompress a stylesheet using sed - css

im compressing a stylesheet into 1 line, using
cat stylesheet.css | gsed "s|/\*\(\\\\\)\?\*/|/~\1~/|g" -e "s|/\*[^*]*\*\+\([^/][^*]*\*\+\)*/||g" -e "s|\([^:/]\)//.*$|\1|" -e "s|^//.*$||" | tr '\n' ' ' | sed -e "s|/\*[^*]*\*\+\([^/][^*]*\*\+\)*/||g" -e "s|/\~\(\\\\\)\?\~/|/*\1*/|g" -e "s|\s\+| |g" -e "s| \([{;:,]\)|\1|g" -e "s|\([{;:,]\) |\1|g"
im trying to reverse the process.
cat stylesheet-compress.css | gsed 's/\([;{]\)\([^\n]\)/\1\n\t\2/g' | gsed 's/\([^}]\)}/\1;\n}\n\n/g' | gsed 's/{/ {/g' | gsed 's/[,]/& /g' | gsed '/}/ { n;n; s/}\n\([^\n]\)/}\n\n\1/ }'
works for the most part but some of the css entries have indenting and extra ;'s

I think you're looking for a CSS formatter. There are lots of them online. E.g. http://www.lonniebest.com/FormatCSS/. If you have to do it from shell, I'd spawn to another program to do the heavy lifting. http://cthedot.de/cssutils/ will do the trick.

Unix piping in system() does not work in R

I am using the system() command to run a Bash command in R, but every time I try to pipe the results of one command into the next (using '|'), I get some error.
For example:
system('grep ^SN bam_stats.txt | cut -f 2- | sed -n 8p | awk -F "\t" '{print $2}'') returns the error: Error: unexpected '{' in "system('grep ^SN bam_stats.txt | cut -f 2- | sed -n 8p | awk -F "\t" '{", and if I try to remove awk -F "\t" '{print $2}' so that I'm left with system('grep ^SN bam_stats.txt | cut -f 2- | sed -n 8p'), I get the following:
/usr/bin/grep: 2-: No such file or directory
[1] 2
I have to keep removing parts of it till I am left with only system('grep ^SN bam_stats.txt'), AKA no pipes are left, for it to work.
Here is a sample from the file 'bam_stats.txt' from which I'm extracting information:
SN filtered sequences: 0
SN sequences: 137710356
SN is sorted: 1
SN 1st fragments: 68855178
SN last fragments: 68855178
SN reads mapped: 137642653
SN reads mapped and paired: 137602018 # paired-end technology bit set + both mates mapped
SN reads unmapped: 67703
SN percentage of properly paired reads (%): 99.8
Can someone tell me why piping is not working? Apologies if this is a stupid question. Please let me know if I should provide more information.
Thank you in advance.
I don't know R but IF Rs implementation of system() just passes it's argument to a shell then, in terms of standard Unix quoting, your example
system('grep ^SN bam_stats.txt | cut -f 2- | sed -n 8p | awk -F "\t" '{print $2}'')
contains 2 strings within quotes and a string in the middle that's outside of quotes:
Inside: grep ^SN bam_stats.txt | cut -f 2- | sed -n 8p | awk -F "\t"
Outside: {print $2}
Inside: <a null string>
because the 2 quotes in the middle around '{print $2}' are ending the first quoted string then later starting a second quoted string.
You don't need sed, grep, or cut if you're using awk anyway though so try just this:
system('awk -F"\t" "/^SN/ && (++cnt==8){print \$3}" bam_stats.txt')

linux command to zip multiple files before move multiple files to other directory

1) I want to zip a thousand documents into a zip file,
2) after zip complete, then move a thousand files to different directory.
How can I accomplish this. Try command below but it is not working. Thanks
[documents]> zip 1000-docs.zip `ls | head -1000` | xargs -I {} mv {} /documents/completed/
zip displays " adding: filename" for every file that it adds to the archive. This isn't the format expected by mv. You can extract the filename using awk (not handling whitespace in filenames).
[documents]> zip 1000-docs.zip `ls | head -1000` | awk '{print $2}' | xargs -I {} mv {} /documents/completed/
or sed
[documents]> zip 1000-docs.zip `ls | head -1000` | sed 's/.*adding: //' | xargs -I {} mv {} /documents/completed/

Extract filename

So I am new to SED and Unix and I would like to replace the following file:
1500:../someFile.C:111 error
1869:../anotherFile.C:222 error
1869:../anotherFile2.Cxx:333 error
//thousands of more lines with same structure
With the followig file
someFile.c
anotherFile.c
anotherFile2.Cxx
Basically, I just want to extract the filename from every line.
So far, I have read the documentation on sed and the second answer here. My best attempt was to use a regex as follows:
sed "s/.\*\/.:.*//g" myFile.txt
Lots of ways to do this.
Sure, you could use sed:
sed 's/^[^:]*://;s/:.*//;s#\.\./##' input.txt
sed 's%.*:\.\./\([^:]*\):.*%\1%' input.txt
Or you could use a series of grep -o instances in a pipe:
grep -o ':[^:]*:' input.txt | grep -o '[^:]\{1,\}' | grep -o '/.*' | grep -o '[^/]\{1,\}'
You could even use awk:
awk -F: '{sub(/\.\.\//,"",$2); print $2}' input.txt
But the simplest way would probably be to use cut:
cut -d: -f2 input.txt | cut -d/ -f2
You can capture the substring between last / and following : and replace the whole string with the captured string(\1).
sed 's#.*/\([^:]\+\).*#\1#g' myFile.txt
someFile.C
anotherFile.C
anotherFile2.Cxx
OR , with little less escaping, sed with -r flag.
sed -r 's#.*/([^:]+).*#\1#g' myFile.txt
Or if you want to use grep,this will only work if your grep supports -P flag which will enable PCRE:
grep -oP '.*/\K[^:]+' myFile.txt
someFile.C
anotherFile.C
anotherFile2.Cxx

Remove quotes with SED

I am tracking some keywords on Twitter using the command below. I want to print just the "screen_name" property of the tweet author. I could get the command below working but want to remove "quotes" from the author screen_name. How could I do this?
curl -N -d #tracking http://stream.twitter.com/1/statuses/filter.json \
-umyuser:mypass | \
sed -e 's/[{}]/''/g' | \
awk -v RS=',"' -F: '/^screen_name/ {print $2}'
Why use sed?
| tr -d '"'
Right tool for the right job.
You can do:
...existing_commands | sed 's/"//g'
A little late to the party, this this utility sounds like it can be useful for parsing the json twitter returns: http://stedolan.github.io/jq/
cat a.txt | tr -d "\042"
It is better because it works in Windows too (using gnuwin32)

Output on a single line

The following code is working as expected. But I can not format the output.
It will print something like this:
mysql
test
someDB
I want the output on a single line
mysql test someDB
I tried using sed in the script but it did not work.
#!/bin/sh
for dbName in `mysqlshow -uroot -pPassWord | awk '{print $2}'`
do
echo "$dbName" | egrep -v 'Databases|information_schema';
done
whenever you want to combine all lines of output into one you can also use xargs:
e.g.
find
.
./zxcv
./fdsa
./treww
./asdf
./ewr
becomes:
find |xargs echo
. ./zxcv ./fdsa ./treww ./asdf ./ewr
you can use tr to get your output to one line
<output from somewhere> | tr "\n" " "
To do a variation combining naumcho's and rsp's answers that will work for small numbers of results:
echo $(mysqlshow -uroot -pPassWord | awk '{print $2}' | egrep -v 'Databases|information_schema')
The newline is generated by the echo command most likely, the following should do the same without the newlines (not tested)
mysqlshow -uroot -pPassWord | awk '{print $2}' | egrep -v 'Databases|information_schema'
and has the added bonus of spawning just 1 grep instead of 3 grep processes.
