[SOLVED] sed in a bash loop with ascending output

grail · 01-03-2011, 04:23 AM

Man I am on a roll for things I am forgetting

In conv-contours.txt you will need to replace the following:

Code:

CONTOUR_SPACING=3 * 20

# with

    while(getline line < "camm2.defaults"){
        if(line ~ /Contours/){
            split(line,arr,"=")
            break
        }
        print line
    }
    CONTOUR_SPACING = arr[2] * 20

I made it 20 instead of 40 as you later divide by 2 and these numbers never change

I am not sure I understand the temp2.plot stuff?? Looking at your original code, the only change is to remove any lines containing "SP2;" (which the temp.plot you supplied does not have).
So no ... there is no difference between the 2 files.

I don't see any ref. to processing the split up objects files named 1 to xx

And again, neither do I in any of your code??

@OP: Do you have any code to process the data? Or do you have an idea of how the algorithm looks like to achieve your goal? If I understood correctly so far, then you start, e.g., with a black circle and you want your script to compute the red circles, right?
Well, while this seems trivial for a circle, I think it is way, way more complicated for complex structures like 'Cafe' from your example. It won't be sufficient to simply exclude the 'enclosed' contours from processing. So please share your idea of how you want to do it.

I don't have any code to generate the descending contours but in theory I think it should work as explained in post #15. The objects in the graphic that are extracted into named files 1 to xx are to have the stepping contours applied to them and and all appended back to the original file (temp.plot) with a SP2; added before the append.

Would this entire task be easier in python? Or is bash and awk able to do it?

Keep in mind I'm willing to compensate you for your time...

Gary, so far as I can see after using your scripts and the ones I modified, we are getting the same output.

ie. We both generate 11 numbered files, temp2.plot, temp-contours.plot and a temporary temp-conv

List of all files after running script:

Code:

1  10  11  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  contours.sh  conv-contours.txt  minmax.awk  temp2.plot  temp-contours.plot  temp.plot

So I would need more information on what is required of the numbered files if that is to be encompassed in this part of the scripts?

No that part doesn't exist yet

Those original scripts convert a absolute plot job to relative coordinates for a diff. kind of plotter. Works wonderful but I was hoping to save work and reuse them but maybe I should have started from scratch.
Thats where the real work is I need to create those interior contours from all those numbered objects in my original post I attached some code that was close but needed expansion to accomplish the task.
I'll attach it again:

If your loosing interest let me know..
Thanks

Gary

Contours will have to be supplied in the original input file and removed the feature as a option....
