I'd like to use the time command in a bash script to calculate the elapsed time of the script and write that to a log file. I only need the real time, not the user and sys. Also need it in a decent format. e.g 00:00:00:00 (not like the standard output). I appreciate any advice. ...
Hi all, What is the best way of scheduling simple batch jobs on windows? My current need is to dump some SVN repositories each night and FTP the dumps to our external FTP side and then e-mail one or more people that the backup has completed/failed. This sounds like the sort of thing I would usually do in a unix script + cron. Is that...

I have a local file that I am displaying in an iframe. I cannot alter the file (or any files included- css, script, etc). I need to remove all of the tags from the file.

I cannot find a library/framework which allow to specify custom action using XML files. At this time I use XML for serialize application classes, bug could be awesome to specify which actions the application s...

Alternatively is there a way to take the terminal type and easily determine if it supports color? Ei...
