I now have access to Apple's updated page. The new MBP is here, and guess what ? ... It's just a minor speed bump with a lower price tag ! DOH !
-
Okay, I've found the solution to my problem : Quote: cat path_to_input_file | awk ' {s=n?s " " c++:c++; n++} /# End/{print "NumberOfLines " n; print s "\ "; n=0; s =""} ' > path_to_output_file Worked like a charm !

Just my personal experience : After TWO years of waiting for a powerfulI laptop, I was finally ready to buy a new 15" MBP. So I went to the Apple Store in my town (Montreal), two days ago, and played 1 hour on the machine. Seeing all the reflec…

I'm also on the verge of buying one new MBP 15" with the 256 MB SSD. The writes limit is a concern to me. Just to be sure, is there any limit on the number of reads too ? I'll be using the MBP for heavy graphical presentations in the class…

Another trick with the Terminal app : Suppose we have a large data file containing three columns of numbers, and we want to keep one line of data after each three lines. How can we do that ? More explicitely, we have something like this : 12…

More questions on editing ASCII files using UNIX commands in the Terminal app : How can we merge the data from two files with several columns and the same number of lines ?
-
Okay, this brings me to some other question with UNIX in the Terminal app. Is it possible to use the output file and compute some maths like sinus and cosinus ? For example, suppose the data looks like this (columns 1 and 2 are now angles in degre…

Yes, I was using an old version of Nisus (in Classic mode !) for its Search&Replace capabilities. I was wondering if there was something similar in OS X (not counting NW Pro)

Thanks, I'll try it. Pretty large though. Other suggestions ?

I have been in India and Nepal before, at high altitude (trekking). There are several things which may destroy your computer : much lower atmospheric pressure, strong temperature variations between light and shadows, tons of fine dust (especially …

I'm waiting until 10.4.10 is out. I never use the security updates. What gives ?
-
I just installed the update, from the combo installer, on my dual 2 GHz G5 with 10.4.8. The computer rebooted itself (two startups) and the restart was **very** long. Very annoying, but apparently there's isn't any problem yet.

I think you could also access all your data by booting from an external disk, with OS 9. I already did this a long time ago, under Panther. Booting with OS 9 gave me access to all the #@$%?porn stuff another user left in his personal account, an…
