Output Space Delimited Content to File

I need to output the contents of a query into a text file
with columns of various widths on 4 different rows. For example on
row 1 the column widths might be
5, 10 , 2 , 10 , etc. On line 2 it's 4,11,16,5, etc.
I need to format the output so that it meets these
requirements. I'm using a custom function to pad the columns to the
appropirate width, but when output in the text file they are
incorrect.
I tried using code like below and then having it output in a
<cfsavecontent>, but no luck. The spacing came out all wrong
with the location looking to be 25 or so spaces too far to the
right.
<cfset FH="FH:#padStringToLen('AAAAAA',' ',9,'left')#
#padStringToLen(myDateTime,' ',17,'left')#
#padStringToLen(q_getResults.identifier,' ',1,'left')#
#padStringtoLen(q_getResults.location,' ',40,'left')#">
Could someone point me in the right direction of how to do
this?
Thanks.

Importing space delimited iPad text files into number

Lots of iPad app collect data as space delimited text files ( where is tab key on iPad) how can I import these files into numbers for analysis and plotting?

Hi Wayne
In the posted datas, some dates end with a period but some don't.
Between values there are :
period (not always. None after the 1st date and after the one just above "no scale travel to Tucson")
space
Given the source which I used, I got different spaces.
In one case they were NO BREAK spaces
In the example which you posted, the first missing period is revealed
The second one isn't revealed because you didn't treated the entire set of datas.
I assume that when there are datas after the decimal values, they are supposed to be in a 3rd column.
Given these features, I wrote a script deciphering automatically the set of datas.
Adjust the property « fromClipboard » to match what you use as source.

Export Excel Table in .txt File with space delimited text in UNICODE Format

Hi all
I've a big unsolved problem: I would like to convert an Excel table with some laboratory data in it (descriptions as text, numbers, variables with some GREEK LETTERS, ...). The output should be a formatted text with a clear structure. A very good solution is
given by the converter in Excel "Save As" .prn File. All works fine, the formattation is perfect (it does not matter if some parts are cutted because are too long), but unfortunately the greek letters are converted into "?"!!!
I've tried to convert my .xlsx File in .txt File with formatting Unicode and the greek letters are still there! But in this case the format is not good, the structure of a table is gone!
Do you know how to save an Excel file in .prn but with Unicode formatting instead of ANSI or a .txt with space delimited text?
Thanks a lot to everyone that can help me!
M.L.C.

This solution works in Excel/Access 2013.
Link the Excel table into Access.
In Access, right-click the linked table in the Navigation Pane, point your mouse cursor to "Export", and then choose "Text File" in the sub-menu.
Name the file, and then under "Specify export options", check "Export data with formatting and layout". Click "OK".
Choose either Unicode or Unicode (UTF-8) encoding. Click "OK".
Click "Close" to complete the export operation.

Output required as formatted text (space delimited)

I need to get the output of a query in a strictly defined space delimited text format. Can anyone advise if that is directly possible in BIP? Currently the method I am using is that I have created an excel template specifying all the formats (column width, number format, etc.), then during runtime, I run the report, open it in excel (with macros disabled), do a "Save As" to save it as a .prn file (Formatted text file), then rename the prn file to .txt
This works although it is rather cumbersome. Any suggestions for simplifying the process?
Thanks
MS

Thanks Vetsrini, this is precisely what I was looking for. But somehow I am not able to fit things together. I made the rtf format and uploaded into BIP as etext template, but when I view, it doesn't say anything. I saw one of your earlier posts where you had replied to a member's similar query, you had told that there is some problem with the template. Is there any log on the server where the errors are logged?
And can you give the format for a simple query with just, say, 2 fields - empno and name (6 chars and 25 chars)? It would be great if you give the sample XML and the etext template. The one from the link you sent looks a bit complex.
Thanking you in anticipation.

How do I save/export as a TAB or SPACE delimited text file?

set tsv to the clipboard as text
set nomDuFichier to (do shell script "date " & quote & "+P%Y%m%d-%H%M%S" & quote) & ".txt"

tell application "System Events"
make new file at end of folder p2d with properties {name:nomDuFichier, file type:"TEXT"}
end tell -- System Events
set leDoc to p2d & nomDuFichier
write tsv to file leDoc
end run

I have it installed as:

No need for an extra application.
Copy to clipboard,
trigger the script from the menu,
the text file is available on the desktop.

How to convert Oracle reports previewer output into delimited file.

How to convert Oracle reports previewer output into delimited file if the report has more than 1000 pages.
I tried with previewer option File --> Generate to file --> Delimited file, but the report engine is crashing.Not generating .TXT file.
I observed that this option is not working for more than 400 pages.
I am using Oracle reports 6i version.
Plz suggest me to generate .TXT file from Report previewer.

You can specify a delimiter (a character or string of characters) to separate the data (boilerplate or field objects) in your report output in either of the following ways:
On the command line using the DELIMITER keyword.
In the Delimited Output dialog box or DelimitedData Output dialog box (displayed with File > Generate to File > Delimited or File > Generate to File > DelimitedData) in Reports Builder.

Save sheet as a .prn, or a space delimited file

I need to be able to save my numbers file as a prn file, which I also believe to be a space delimited file. Does anyone know how i can do this?
Thanks in advance!!!!

I hate to apply different formatting tasks when the machine may do the job for me.
Here is a dedicated AppleScript :
--[SCRIPT columnsBySpaces]
Enregistrer le script en tant que Script : columnsBySpaces.scpt
déplacer le fichier ainsi créé dans le dossier
<VolumeDeDémarrage>:Users:<votreCompte>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
Il vous faudra peut-être créer le dossier Numbers et peut-être même le dossier Applications.
Dans la ligne d'en-têtes la plus haute, indiquer les largeurs de colonnes (en nombre caractères)
En l'absence de valeurs numérique, le script utilisera une largeur de 12 caractères.
Sélectionner les cellules à exporter
menu Scripts > Numbers > columnsBySpaces
Un fichier nommé "columnsBySpaces_aaaammjj-hhmmss.txt" sera créé sur le bureau.
Vous pourrez l'imprimer en utilisant une police de chasse constante.
--=====
L'aide du Finder explique:
L'Utilitaire AppleScript permet d'activer le Menu des scripts :
Ouvrez l'Utilitaire AppleScript situé dans le dossier Applications/AppleScript.
Cochez la case "Afficher le menu des scripts dans la barre de menus".
--=====
Save the script as a Script: columnsBySpaces.scpt
Move the newly created file into the folder:
<startup Volume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
Maybe you would have to create the folder Numbers and even the folder Applications by yourself.
In the higher header row, enter the wanted widths of columns (characters numbers).
If there is no numerical value, the script use 12 characters by column.
menu Scripts > Numbers > columnsBySpaces
A file named "columnsBySpaces_aaaammjj-hhmmss.txt" will be created on the Desktop.
You will be able to print it using a monospaced font.
--=====
The Finder's Help explains:
To make the Script menu appear:
Open the AppleScript utility located in Applications/AppleScript.
Select the "Show Script Menu in menu bar" checkbox.

Im running out of space, how do I clear old content temp files

Thanks

Im running out of space, how do I clear old content temp files old apps?
I'm not sure exactly what you're asking. Temp files get automatically deleted when you restart. Old apps you can either uninstall (if it was originally installed with an installer, there should be an uninstaller somewhere) or drag it to the trash. What's "old content"?
i have done the browser cache and cleared history.
This is not going to give you back much space.

Sender File (FCC) - Content of File into single XML Tag

Hi,
Input file
This is Line1
This is Line2
Expected Sender File adapter FCC into XML
<Document>

.</File>

FCC is giving the following output with the below config,
File.fieldNames = Content
File.fieldSeparator = '0x1A' (HexaDecimal rep for EndOfFile)
<Document>
.<File>
..<Content>This is line 1</content>
..<Content>This is line 2</content>
.</File>
</Document>
How can i read the complete file into a single XML tag?
I am aware of other options (AdapterModules or Javamapping). But i want to keep it simple to FileAdapter using FCC or using MessageTransformBean (if possible)
-SM

FCC donse't work here, So i wrote a simple Java map inside Execute method to convert the content to the required format.
public void execute(InputStream in, OutputStream out) throws StreamTransformationException{
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
       try {
       BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(in, "UTF-8"));
       while ((line = reader.readLine()) != null) {
           sb.append(line).append("\r\n");
       } finally {
       in.close();
After i had the input string, i formatted it to get the required output as XML ...
<Document>
.<File>
..<Content> This is line 1 This is line2</content>
.</File>

How to sum space delimited hex values in a string, and do other stuff?

Hello
I am trying to write a Bourne shell script that takes a non-constant-length character string as input, converts each character to hexidecimal value, sums each value, takes the two's complement of the sum, logically ANDS it with FF, and if any of the resultant "nibbles" are a-f, print/save that nibble as A-F, for later display as a two-character-long character string
For example, assume a variable (as in non-constant) length variable $A
A="w04:0;2"
the road that I started down was to define
B=$( echo $A | od -An -t x1 -N"${#A}" )
# for this example, $B=77 30 34 3a 30 3b 32
It's the middle part where I need some magic. What I want to do is add the whitespace-delimited hex values of this string, for this example
C=77+30+34+3a+30+3b+32
so for this example, $C=1b2
then take two's complement of $C; for this example, $TWOS_COMP=ffff ffff ffff ffe4e
and logically AND it with FF; for this example, almost-final answer is 4e
then save final result as uppercase character string variable (for this example, variable's contents would be 4E)
Is what I'm trying to do intuitively obvious to any of you gurus out there, that could rattle off an answer? I'm okay with trashing my approach thus far and trying something totally different, within the constraint that it run inside a Bourne shell script.
Thanx in advance, if anybody can help!

I've made progress. I've converted each character of a non-constant-length string $A into a space-delimited string of hex values, added them up, and retained the least significant byte (i.e., the 8 least significant bits). Here's how:
B=$( echo $A | od -An -t x1 -N"${#A}" )
D=0
for C in $B; do
C=0x$C
D=$(($D + $C))
done
D=$(($D & 16#FF))
D=`echo "ibase=10;obase=16;$D" | bc`
The missing piece now is how to take the two's complement of $D. Anybody out there with any ideas on how to handle the two's complement piece inside a Bourne shell?
Thanx

Anyway to set ProPhotoRGB as output space in ACR hosted by Elements?

Is there anyway to set ProPhoto RGB as the output space in ACR 4.4.1 hosted by Ps Elements 6 on a Windows Vista Home Premium laptop?
The images will be properly corrected using the full version of Photoshop 10.0.1 on my Mac, but I'm used to seeing the ACR preview window with ProPhoto RGB 16-bit set as the output space.
Or do the limitations of Ps Elements cripple ACR in this regard too?

> I'm assuming the choices of sRGB and AdobeRGB in Element's ACR is strictly output and working space. Regardless of which is chosen the preview stays the same in ACR. Correct?
> Does Elements ACR embed the sRGB or AdobeRGB working space after saving to tiff and can you save in 16bit tiff as well?
The way things work in Elements is that you have four choices for colour management:
None - This means any file you open will have any embedded profile ignored, the working space is effectively the same as your monitor, when you save a file any existing profile is removed.
Optimize for Web - This sets the working space to sRGB, so any file without a profile will be edited in that space. When you save such a file you can embed sRGB as it's profile on saving.
Optimize for Print - This sets the working space to Adobe RGB, and then behaves as for optimze for web but using Adobe RGB.
Let me choose - For files with no embedded profile, you can choose between sRGB or Adobe RGB and that will be the working space profile for that file. You can then save it with that profile.
For the latter three options, Elemenets always preserves the embedded profile if a file has one. So, if you have Elements set to optimze for web, but open a file with Adobe RGB, it will use Adobe RGB. Unlike full PS, you can't force sRGB working space on an Adobe RGB file. It will also preserve ProPhoto RGB too it seems, even though it's not a profile you can use in Elements to create files with.
Elements also provides the ability to convert (not assign) between sRGB and Adobe RGB. You can effectively do an assign by saving a file without the embedded profile, and then setting Elements colour settings to let me choose and then selecting the profile you wanted at that point...
As for ACR, I believe the preview works no differently than it does in full PS other than there is no option to select the output space in the ACR window (along with other restricted options). This is effectively set by the Elements color settings above, so you will get sRGB for optimse for web or Adobe RGB for optimise for print. When it's set to let me choose, I think it defaults to using whatever your camera's default colour space is set to as this is still in the EXIF info, but am not sure there. ACR does let you specify 16 bit output though, so depending on the base colour settings in Elements you can create a 16-bit AdobeRGB TIFF file, save it with the correct profile, and also easily create a correct 8-bit sRGB JPEG from it for web use.
So, no, Elements is not as flexible as full PS, but, if you want to stick with Adobe RGB and sRGB, then I reckon it's all there and it's not quite as pathetic as Ramon says. If you want ProPhoto RGB, then to be fair, Elements is probably not for you anyway.

CS3 fails to output an SWC Flash Component File

My workflow uses CS3 to create SWCs which I include in my FlashDevelop Project. But CS3 no longer outputs the SWC Flash Component File. It outputs the SWF, but not the SWC. So I set up this test FLA to see what's up...
I used a weird name for the MovieClip (MKLop2) to avoid any possible naming collisions and added AS3 to the MovieClip's timeline (a simple this.stop(); ) to ensure Flash was "seeing" enough content to warrant an export to SWC. I also tried right clicking the MC in the library and choosing Export SWC file... from the drop down menu. Flash processes the request but does not produce an SWC. There is an instance of MKLop2 which has been dragged and dropped on the Stage. So, I have done all I can think of to encourage Flash to output an SWC that I know to do. Have I just overlooked something simple? Thanks. Mond.

It all looks good to me and no you shouldn't have to do anything to get it to export items in the SWC other than add a linkage ID to each item you plan on accessing via code.
Perhaps try running Flash as Administrator to rule out any filesystem permission issues.
Lastly are you setting the SWF location every time? Make sure you hit the browse button and select the location every time you open the document. You should only need to do that once.

An output module failed. The file may be damaged or corrupted.

Whenever I try to render something in After Effects CC 13.1.1, an error message pops up, saying "After Effects error: Rendering error while writing to file '[not going to disclose]' An output module failed. The file may be damaged or corrupted (-1610153464)."
Screenshot of the error message:
I tried reinstalling QuickTime (7), repaired it, updated After Effects to the latest version(as I am writing this), checked firewall software, and used other formats such as AVI.
Adobe Media Encoder (CC 2014-latest version) won't work with me, either.
I sent the composition to Adobe Media Encoder, and this is what I got, no progress here.
Screenshot:
It took a while to connect to the dynamic link server, and failed.
This is a log of what has happened in Adobe Media Encoder.

EDIT(11/23/2014 8:31PM PST): For some reason, other projects work for me just fine. I am not sure why it is not working on one project.
Screenshot of a new project other than this I am rendering at the time of writing this edit:

Can other projects can output to the same output location? Yes
Can other projects render with the same render settings (codec, format, etc.)? Yes.
If you create a new composition and just add a solid layer to it with no effects in the same project does it render? No. I still get the error.
Can you render that brand new comp with the same render settings, output settings, output location etc.? Yes.
If so, what effects are present in the offending comp? Twixtor Pro in all the cinematics/clips, Motion Tile and Transform for pan/crop & wiggle, Magic Bullet Looks and Bad TV Warping preset with just Wave Warp & Venetian Blinds for color correction, Gradient Ramp for text, Bad TV Warping preset with everything for effect, Transform for fade in/out, and ReelSmart Motion Blur v4.1.2 for motion blur.
Also, what scripts are you using? Just the Move Anchor Point script I found from one of Mt. Mograph's videos, Summit 16 - 2.5D Minecraft Steve - After Effects - YouTube.
Have you ever installed any third-party codec packs? (I've heard of some codec packs causing weird issues like this.) Yes, (not everything I have, just everything I can think of and find) I have K-Lite codec pack, Fraps, x264vfw, and Xvid MPEG-4 codec.

Apple loops for garageband pack doesn't show the folder content (loops, files...) in ableton live suite 8 library browser, but I can see all the loops in the folder from finder. how can i fix this? help please.

Thanks Barney, I tried that but all that comes up in Spotlight are the log files that show the file paths! I don't know how Steam works. Are all the files held by Steam on their server perhaps?

How to edit the content.opf file of a FXL EPUB?

I'm exporting a fixed layout epub and I cannot find out where the content.opf file is and how to edit it. I'm trying to do the same thing that was done here: Indesign CC 2014 Fixed Layout export
Can anyone point me in the right direction? I've googled to no end!
Thanks,

Please follow these steps to edit your EPUB:
1. Download Sigil https://code.google.com/p/sigil/downloads/list
2. Open your EPUB in this editor.
3. In the book browser view on your left, look up for content.opf file. Edit this file and save your EPUB.
