For this directory structure: . |-- README.txt |-- firstlevel.rb `-- lib |-- models | |-- foo | | `-- fourthlevel.rb | `-- thirdlevel.rb `-- secondlevel.rb 3 directories, 5 files The glob would match: firstlevel.rb lib/secondlevel.rb lib/models/thirdlevel.rb lib/models/foo/fourthlevel.rb ...
I need to list all files whose names start with 'SomeLongString'. But the case of 'SomeLongString' can vary. How? I am using zsh, but a bash solution is also welcome. ...
Is there a built-in mechanism in .NET to match patterns other than Regular Expressions? I'd like to match using UNIX style (glob) wildcards (* = any number of any character). I'd like to use this for a end-user facing control. I fear that permitting all RegEx capabilities will be very confusing. ...
Say I want to copy the contents of a directory excluding files and folders whose names contain the word 'Music'. cp [exclude-matches] *Music* /target_directory What should go in place of [exclude-matches] to accomplish this? ...
When the following two lines of code are executed in a bash script, "ls" complains that the files don't exist: dirs=/content/{dev01,dev02} ls -l $dirs When I run the script with the -x option, it appears to be passing the variable within single quotes (which would prevent globbing): + dirs=/content/{dev01,dev01} + ls -l '/content/{de...
I'm looking for examples of specifying files in a tree structure, for example, for specifying the set of files to search in a grep tool. I'd like to be able to include and exclude files and directories by name matches. I'm sure there are examples out there, but I'm having a hard time finding them. Here's an example of a possible synt...
I don't know if it's legit at StackOverflow to post your own answer to a question, but I saw nobody had asked this already. I went looking for a C# Glob and didn't find one, so I wrote one that others might find useful. ...
Hi, i write program that parse text with regular expression. Regular expression should be obtained from user. I deside to use glob syntax for user input, and convert glob string to the regular expression internally. For example: "foo.? bar*" should be converted to "^.*foo\.\w\bar\w+.*" Somehow, i need to escape all meaningful cha...
Anyone know how one might adapt a search tree to handle limited regular expressions? The task is, given a file name, find all nodes matching that file name. Nodes may contain usual file name globs (* and ?). Obviously, since this is a search tree, speed is of the essence. EDIT: I should add that the most important case for speed is the ...
How can I move all files except one? I am looking for something like: 'mv ~/Linux/Old/!Tux.png ~/Linux/New/' where I move old stuff to new stuff -folder except a Tux.png. !-sign represents a negation. Is there some tool for the job? ...
I run the following code sed 's/\([^ ]+\) your \([^ ]+\)/ \2\1er/' < fail The file fail is fail your test The above command gives me fail your test although it should give "testfailer". The second and first globs \2\1 should be at the start of the word "er". This suggests me that the problem may be in the regexes in the searc...
I'm parsing XML files with something like: while (<files/*.xml>) { ... } I want to use a constant to 'files', say use constant FILES_PATH => 'files'; while (<FILES_PATH/*.xml>) { ... } I hope you understand the idea, and can help me :).. Thank you in advance. ...

Ok, I have a bit of an issue here. I realize that I don't need to set a $handle to *::HTML to get this snippet to work, however this code is taken out of context from its use and I do in fact need this to work with the $handle. The output I am receiving is below the snippet however the output I want is for the file.html to contain "what\...
Hello, I'm trying to make a glob-like expansion of a set of DNA strings that have multiple possible bases. The base of my DNA strings contains the letters A, C, G, and T. However, I can have special characters like M which could be an A or a C. For example, say I have the string: ATMM I would like to take this string as input and o...
I got this strange line of code today, it tells me 'empty' or 'not empty' depending on whether the CWD has any items (other than . and ..) in it. I want to know how it works because it makes no sense to me. perl -le 'print+(q=not =)[2==(()=<.* *>)].empty' The bit I am interested in is <.* *>. I don't understand how it gets the names ...

Hey there lovely stackoverflow people! I have got directories which contain brackets in the names. i.e. "dir_123[[email protected]]" Within that dirs there are .tif files. What I do is counting the Tif files. On my Mac I did that with MAMP and it worked great: $anz = count(glob(str_replace("[", "\[", "dir_123[[email protected]]/*.tif"))); On...
Hello, I am looking for a wildcard string match API (not regex match). I cannot use anything other than Win32 APIs. ...
I have a C program that displays it's command-line by iterating through the argv variable. #include <stdio.h> int main(int argc, char *argv[]){ int i = 0; printf("----------\n"); for(i = 0; i < argc; i++) printf("%s\n", argv[i]); return 0; } I invoked the program in a folder containing a large C++ source tree lik...
