I am trying to write my first real script, and I have a problem. I

simply want to record 1 second of audio to a file, and do so on an

automated basis. My script is:

sleep 1s

kill -INT $!

executes and the output file is corrupt. Any help on this would be

appreciated.

Can you kill it by issuing the command at the command line?

Look if it is a matter of the 'rec' or may be a wrong PID in $!

Is there any command in shell which I can run from command line which

will give me line number in a particular file. e.g.

Hello,

man nl or my personal favourite:

perl -e 'while(<>) { print "$. $_" }' /var/adm/messages | grep "the line I am interested"

I like the second better, but don't tell anyone.

Hello,

man nl or my personal favourite:

perl -e 'while(<>) { print "$. $_" }' /var/adm/messages | grep "the line I am interested"

Is there any command in shell which I can run from command line which

will give me line number in a particular file. e.g.

In /var/adm/messages, I have these two lines -

Sep 7 11:00:34 myhost1 scsi: [ID 107833 kern.notice] ASC: 0x44

(internal target failure), ASC Q: 0x0, FRU: 0x0

Sep 7 12:30:01 myhost1 root: [ID 702911 local0.error] CRITICAL_ISSUE:

Disk error(s) detected on pdxfrc1 - Please verify!

I would like to see if there is a command I can run which gives me the

line number for each of the above line.

man nl or my personal favourite:

perl -e 'while(<>) { print "$. $_" }' /var/adm/messages | \

grep "the line I am interested"

I like the second better, but don't tell anyone.
