     (...) Huh. I don't know of such a thing, but it wouldn't be very hard to make. Perhaps if I'm bored while on vacation... :) (25 years ago, 14-Jan-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.off-topic.geek)

     (...) Here's a q&d pseudo-grep, if that helps... #!/bin/sh cat /home/username/lego/...number.txt | \ perl -e 'my %x = map {(split(/\t/,$_,2))[0], $_} grep {/^\d.*\t/} <STDIN>; print join "", map {$x{$_}} @ARGV;' $* --Todd (25 years ago, 14-Jan-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.off-topic.geek)
    
         Re: Parsing Pause database —Bram Lambrecht
     (...) What exactly does this bit of code do? How do I use it? (I've done some programming, but only in C, and nothing really fancy) Where can I get a copy of bynumber.txt?--if it includes all the info I need, I could probably throw some code (...)

         Re: Parsing Pause database —Bram Lambrecht
     (...) Done. I wrote a little C program, which grabbed everything I needed from the bynumber.txt file almost instantly (for 168 sets). For some reason, it couldn't handle 3 digit numbers, but there were only three of those, so I copied them manually. (...)

        Re: Parsing Pause database —Steve Demlow
   (...) I wrote such a script. However, it is really ugly: it's mostly Tcl but it calls perl to do the DB query. It should be all perl (it would be much easier/shorter/quicker) but it grew out of something else I was playing with in Tcl.
