I Want To Convert And Concatenate Many RA (RealAudio) Files

Hi guys,

I have multiple .csv files with multiple columns/headings, set up essentially like this (obviously more info in the real thing)


Gene Location Ref Var Coverage Function
DMD chrX.... A G 198 exonic
SCN4A chr17.... T C 111 splicing

and so on...

How could I concatenate selected columns into an output file with strings seperated with a comma? eg DMD,A,G,exonic (similar to what you can do in excel). I would like to be able to do this for multiple files in a directory. It would be preferable if all the outputs could be compiled into one file as I'll use this for something else later.
The current protocol in our team is to concatenate each file individually with an excel macro and copy into a file, and it takes a very long time.

Thanks very much!!

Hi guys, I'm using a pro music software program and in order to convert files it says I should use a terminal command sudo get-it ffmpeg
But when I type it in it says it's not available and to get it from another source. I don't know where to get it from. Can someone please send me to the right place?

I have just downloaded imagemagick and when I try to convert a pdf file to a jpg file. I get the message no such file or directory. The file I want to convert is in Home/Downloads

I recently crashed my LMDE system, and trying to retrieve something from the disaster, booted up the failsafe OS and copied a number of files onto a USB stick using the 'cp'command.
'ls -alrt /media/dougb' showed that the files were present and correct on the stick.

However when I attached the stick to a working LMDE PC there appeared to be nothing on it, whether I looked at the stick in the desktop file manager or by listing in a terminal.

I've tried changing the permissions and/or ownership of the files (via the broken OS) without success.

Why aren't the files visible? What can I do about it?

I am trying to put back together a big atr file from some smaller tar files that I created several years ago. The issue is that in order to tar this large file, I must put each file back using the command

tar -xMf cd-1.tar
Prepare volume #2 for 'cd-1.tar' and hit return:n cd-2.tar
Prepare volume #3 for 'cd-2.tar' and hit return:n cd-3.tar
and so forth.

I have fourteen files cd-1.tar through cd-15.tar. The cd-9.tar files is missing and I assume that it is gone. Now when I type the commands in I get the following:

Code:

-linux tarfile]$ tar -xMf cd-1.tar
Prepare volume #2 for `cd-1.tar' and hit return: n cd-2.tar
Prepare volume #3 for `cd-2.tar' and hit return: n cd-3.tar
Prepare volume #4 for `cd-3.tar' and hit return: n cd-4.tar
Prepare volume #5 for `cd-4.tar' and hit return: n cd-5.tar
Prepare volume #6 for `cd-5.tar' and hit return: n cd-6.tar
Prepare volume #7 for `cd-6.tar' and hit return: n cd-7.tar
Prepare volume #8 for `cd-7.tar' and hit return: n cd-8.tar
Prepare volume #9 for `cd-8.tar' and hit return: n cd-10.tar
tar: This volume is out of sequence (10755138772 - 4889670868 != 6598651392)
Prepare volume #9 for `cd-10.tar' and hit return: n cd-10.tar
tar: This volume is out of sequence (10755138772 - 4889670868 != 6598651392)
Prepare volume #9 for `cd-10.tar' and hit return: 
tar: This volume is out of sequence (10755138772 - 4889670868 != 6598651392)

As you can see I do not have cd-9.tar. That stops the untarring cold. However, I have cd-10.tar,cd-11.tar,cd-12.tar,cd-13.tar,cd-14.tar,cd-15.tar. Now I may have these files, but they cannot be put back in the main file because cd-9.tar is missing and everything must be put in sequentially.

Is there a way to complete this sequence of steps and add all fourteen files to the files bigbackup leaving out cd-9.tar? That means that the bigbackup file will be incomplete, but that is better than no file or having bigbackup missing six files on the back end.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

i have a few score of files (>50) in fasta format. these work fine in linux os
but i have to send these to a collegue who uses windows. and these files don't open properly in notepad or wordpad. executing save as to windows format does the trick

but i don't want to manually convert all of them

is ther a way i can accomplish conversion of multiple files and saving them in a format of my choosing using say terminal

I am trying to convert a PDF document from an Excel and PowerPoint document. I installed it and ran the command. It gives no warning.. Just doesn't create a new PDF document. I've successfully done this before, but I think it was a different server. I've checked file permissions, but don't think it is the issue (I've tried as a normal user and as root).

I could convert doc, docx, and txt files, but not xls, xlsx, ppt, and pptx files.

Thoughts why? Is there a verbose option or a log file which I could check for clues?

Thank you

Hello Folks.

I'm searching for a easy way to rename multiple files from CLI but didn't find any easy way for me so I'm reaching out to you guys for help.

This is what I want to do (from CLII or script). I want to move files with a sequence number on the name of the files (msg0000, msg0001, msg0002 and so on) to let's say msg0066, msg0067 and so on. Each of this file name has two other files (msg0000.wav, msg0000.WAV and msg0000.txt).

The idea is to move them from one directory to another and following a sequence in the file names, is there a way I can do this pain free?

Any help on this matter will be greatly appreciates and I'm talking about over 100 files I need to move following the sequence of the receiving directory.

Thanks!

I am currently running a system simulation on multiple files.
I have a computer algorithm written in perl to run "system" simulations for all the files I need

What I am trying to do is put multiple files into one file, only problem is that its not doing exactly what I need it do

Example:

I am "cat txt0.txt txt1.txt txt2.txt txt3.txt > allfiles.txt"

I need it to read as

txt0.txt
txt1.txt
txt2.txt
txt3.txt

Instead its taking all the files and taking the information within each txt file and putting them all together. Info that looks like this


fdfasdfqwdefdfefdkfkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkfsdfasdxfewqfe..........

all clustered together

you get the picture ?

I am really confused how to get this to work, there are over 100 files that need to go into a single file.
That way when I run it through the perl algorithm I created, I can do it in one shot.
