[05:11] morning [06:33] o/ [14:35] https://streaming.media.ccc.de/emf2024/stagec british train nerdery [14:49] * penguin42 wonders if they've got a handle on the radioactive sources yet [14:51] penguin42: just saw that on Mastodon me and the partner just got home from the bar [14:51] i wonder how many geeks had their own geiger counter on them? :-P [17:00] Hello there [17:01] Let's say i'm trying to get written all the names of certain types of files from a specific folder and dropping that down to a txt file, let's say than for this i'm using find [17:01] Which i am using btw for that purpose [17:01] But how can i take that output (from the find command) and make it so it reformat the content of that file in some way? [17:02] for instance, modify each row using certain specific pattern [17:02] What would be the best approach for this? [17:02] the change must happend automatically [17:03] Obsdark: Should we say is that your homework? [17:04] seems an odd way of asking :- [19:00] No it was not, but rest easy, i found a way a while ago [19:01] i wasn't sure what approach to take, but finally i just find a way after some experimenting [19:02] The question tho was with that in mind, read what approaches other people has taken in the past, what could be better for, or worst for [19:02] that kind of thing [19:32] * penguin42 would just use sed or awk (flipping into python if it gets hard)
