|    sed "s/DELTA/$delta/"    | 
|    [ ~25 more ]
|    sed "s/OMEGA/$omega/" > "$wkfile"

You only need one sed command to do all these changes:

   sed -e "s/ALPHA/$alpha/" \
       -e "s/BETA/$beta/" \
       ...
       -e "s/OMEGA/$omega/" \
       "$infile" > "$wkfile"

This should be somewhat faster than using multiple sed commands.

|
|      awk '{ for ( i = 1; i <= NF; i++ ) print NR, $i }' ${1+"$@"} \
|      | sort +0n +1n \
|      | awk 'NR != 1 && $1 != last { printf "\n" }
|             $1 == last { printf ", " }
|             { printf "%d", $2; last = $1 }
|             END { printf "\n" }'
|
|    When I put it in a file by itself and ran it on test data, it ran
|    correctly.  However, when I inserted it into my program, I got
|    dozens of pages (literally) of '0,0,0,0' ... as output.  So...

Strange.  Did you forget to replace ${1+"@"} with the name of your
input file?  (Or remove it completely if you're taking the input
from a pipe.)

For faster solutions in awk and C, see another posting of mine.
You may need to modify the programs slightly to handle blank
lines in the input correctly.

I find it difficult to believe that you get this error even when
logged in as root...  Unless you don't have "x" permissions set on
the parent directory in which you're doing the extraction (I've seen
this anomoly on some systems)...

See what happens with the "-o" option to 'tar' which should take on
the attributes of the user doing the extract rather than those written
to the tape as is the default...

Regards and Good Luck !

Well, the subject line pretty much says it all.  I'm new to un*x
and I'd like to find out where to go learn more about it (besides my local
university).  There seems to be a zillion books on the subject at my local 
bookstores, but I figure the collective net.wisdom could direct me to the 
best two or three.

If there's a FAQ available somewhere that I could obtain via anonymous ftp,
I'd just be delighted.  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Just typing "groups" with no arguments lists the groups you are in.
Specifying a login-name lists the groups that person is in.

The last three I mailed were rejected; I'll try again. If memory serves,
I was stuck on the BSD timeval struct.

Subject: Redirecting the date as a file name
Keywords: redirection filenames date-to-filename

Date: Wed, 22 Jul 1992 22:26:11 GMT

I'm setting up a .logout file that shows files that I have edited or
added in the past day.  So far, so good.  This was no problem.  However,
now what I want to do is to take the system date and tee my list of
files to another file with the date (  date | cut -c5-10 ) as the
filename.  How can I redirect the output of that command and use it to
create a filename (for example, today's file should have the name
'Jul 22' ?  Is it possible to save the output as a string which then
could be outputted as the filename?

Thanks for any and all help.

Try turning off echo on the modem.  In Hayes lingo this would be a "ate0".
Some modems have a dip switch to do this.  Your problem is the unix box is
sending out a login sequence.  The modem them echo's it back.  The unix box
thinks "someone" is trying to log in.  The login is wrong of course so the
login sequence is sent again.  ETC.

I am having problems applying a patch to a program.  I enter 
sh patch and I cannot get it to work correctly.  What am I doing
wrong??
