I have a file that was converted from EBCDIC to ASCII. Where there used to be new lines there are now characters that show up as <85> (a symbol representing a single character, not the four characters it appears to be) and the whole file is on one line. I want to search for them and replace them all with new lines again, but I don't know...
I have something akin to <Foobar Name='Hello There'/> and need to change the single quotation marks to double quotation marks. I tried :s/\'.*\'/\"\0\" but it ended up producing <Foobar Name="'Hello There'"/>. Replacing the \0 with \1 only produced a blank string inside the double quotes - is there some special syntax I'm missing that I ...
I'd like to filter out (mostly one-line) comments from (mostly valid) JavaScript using python's re module. For example: // this is a comment var x = 2 // and this is a comment too var url = "http://www.google.com/" // and "this" too url += 'but // this is not a comment' // however this one is url += 'this "is not a comment' + " and ' ne...
I have the following code: #$domain = domainname.co.uk #$root = public_html #$webpage = domainname.co.uk/foo/bar/foobar.html my $string = ($webpage =~ s/^$domain//g); my $linkFromRoot = $dbh->quote($root . $string); Usualy this works fine but for some reason the output is "public_html 1" instead of "public_html/foo/bar/foobar.html". ...
What's the best dedicated search-and-replace GUI tool on a Mac? "Find & Replace It!" seems decent, but they've ridiculously disabled the replace function in the demo, so I can't give it a real test before paying. Is there anything else comparable or better? ...
I am trying to manipulate Arabic in Word 2007. I need to find a line that begins with a number. In English docs I would use "^p^#" But in the Arabic doc I have, this isn't being found. Here's a snippet of text where a line starts with ٦٤ا : - ١٦٤يا معشر البشر تمسّکوا بالحبل المتين انّه ينفعکم فی الارض من لدی اللّه ربّ العالمين خذوا...
Using C#, what's the most efficient way to accomplish this? string one = "(999) 999-9999"; string two = "2221239876"; // combine these into result result = "(222) 123-9876" String one will always have 9's. I'm thinking some kind of foreach on string one and when it sees a 9, replace it with the next character in string two. Not qui...
I have the following array: $person = array('first_name' => 'Fred', 'last_name' => 'Flintstone'); I want to change/pad the keys so the array will end up as (note extra colons): $person = array('::first_name::' => 'Fred', '::last_name::' => 'Flintstone'); For some reason I'm drawing a blank on the simplest way to do this ...
Hello, I have searched for hours now and haven't found a solution for my problem. I have a NSString which looks like the following: "spacer": ["value1", "value2"], "spacer": ["value1", "value2"], ... What I want to do is to remove the [ ] characters from the string. It's seems to be impossible with objective-c. Most other programming...
How can I use sed to replace this line char * path_list_[1] = { "/some/random/path" }; with this line char * path_list_[2] = { "lib/foo", "lib/bar" }; in a file named source.c Notes: * The path is really random. * Your solution should only change this line in source.c * I'm only interested in a sed oneliner. You can use this Pyth...

How could I prevent this? ...
How do I use regular expressions and search and replace to turn this [UserID] = <UserID, int,> [UserID] = 123123 [UserID] = asd123123 into [UserID] = [UserID] [UserID] = [UserID] [UserID] = [UserID] In other words I want to take everything from left side of the line up to the '=' character and replace everything on the right side o...
Hi. I've got a "slightly" large sql script saved as a textfile. It totals in at 8.92gb, so it's a bit of a beast. I've got to do some search and replaces in this file(specifically, change all NOT NULL to NULL, so all fields are nullable) and then execute the darned thing. Does anyone have any suggestions for a text editor that would be ...
How would you use regex to write functions to do the following: Replace lowercase 'a' with uppercase and vice versa If easily extensible, do this for all letters Where words are separated by whitespaces and > and < are special markers on some words, replace >word with word< and vice versa. If it helps, you can restrict input such th...

I am currently developing a function that is meant to execute dynamically created SQL statements. This is done by concatenating the columns and fetching them via cursors. The problem is that when there is a function with a comma between its arguments, the concat concatenates the contents of the functions inclusive. Is it possible to ski...

I use an array like this, that replaces the key with the value using str_replace. $array = array("HEADER","This is the header"); foreach($array as $var => $content) { $template = str_replace("{" . strtoupper($var). "}", $content,$templ...
For instance, say I wanted a function to escape a string for use in HTML (as in Django's escape filter): def escape(string): """ Returns the given string with ampersands, quotes and angle brackets encoded. """ return string.replace('&', '&').replace('<', '<').replace('>', '>').repla...
I have a string which is basically a list of "words" delimited by commas. These "words" can be pretty much any character e.g. "Bart Simpson, Ex-girlfriend, dude, radical" I'm trying to use javascript, jQuery, whatever i can to replace a word based on a search string with nothing (in essence, removing the word from the list). For exampl...
