Que Prime [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote
I have a folder of 150,000 pdf files and I need to copy 20,000 of
them to
another folder. The ones I need to copy are in a .txt file.
Assuming the text file is a list of those to be copied,
wouldn't a simple bash script do the trick?
(don't know about windows, but this would work on Mac or Linux,
and, I assume there must be a way to do this with a windows command
line script of some sort.)
#!/bin/bash
cd /path/to/dir/with/files/and/list
llistofiles=$(cat your .txt file here)
echo Copying files...
for each i in $listofiles
do
cp $i /path/to/other/folder/$i
echo All done...b'bye...
exit
Or, perhaps with tcl
#!/usr/bin/wish
set listofiles [read your txt file here]
puts Copying files...
foreach a {$listofiles} {
file copy $a /path/to/target/dir
}
puts All done...b'bye...
exit
I imagine python could do something quite similar,
but confess I am just lurking on this list and have barely begun
to learn python.

Re: [Tutor] Question about global variables on modules
Tiago Katcipis wrote: I know its not such a pretty thing to have global variables but its only for an exercise my teacher told to do. Its a function to calculate the results of a matrix using jacob. I want to inside the module (inside a function on the module )assign a value to a global variable, but the only way i found to do this inside the own module function is importing the module inside himself. Is there another way of doing this? its kind odd to import the module to himself, i think :-) here goes the code Oi, Tiago Não sei muito bem como funciona em Python, sendo que já estou começando a aprender-lo, mais, deve ter algo como o uplevel em Tcl, não? Tcl's uplevel sets a variável pelo namespace global. Ou talvez algo como set ::var value (esse funciona em tcl pra set a variável globalmente mas dentro de um proc)? /tony -- Anthony Baldwin http://www.BaldwinLinguas.com Translation Interpreting http://www.TransProCalc.org Free translation project mgmt software http://www.LinguasOS.org Linux for Translators ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
Re: [Tutor] Which Python Script Editor of Choice?

Andreas Am Donnerstag, den 03.04.2008, 16:57 +0100 schrieb Alan Gauld: Jeffrey Dates [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote So as I'm starting to get into writing some scripts, I'm looking for recommendations for a nifty script editor. Ideally a freeware/shareware solution until I can justify a purchase of something more beefy. editor choice is a sensitive topic for programmers and tends to lead to religious wars. I use TickleText (http://sourceforge.net/projects/tickletext/ ) It doesn't have python syntax highlighting though. I'm really just starting with python, and mostly hack tcl.tk, in which TickleText is written. It's good for writing html and LaTeX, and other stuff, too, and has some other useful features. It's certainly not as fat and bloated as Emacs (hehe...Emacs is cool, really). I used to use medit or kate. But then I made Tickle Text. Kdevelop is nice if you want a full IDE that does recognize python syntax. And, of course, if you are using Linux. I don't use KDE (use fluxbox), but I like some of these KDE tools. /tony -- Anthony Baldwin http://www.BaldwinLinguas.com Translation Interpreting http://www.TransProCalc.org Free translation project mgmt software ___ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
