  • Shell script to move files around. A slightly more complex example of shell-awk-shell pipe chain.
    Bash_CopyTxtSubset.html
  • Shell script to extract data from logfiles by calling awk script for each participant. Example of a simple wrapper script for repeating identical operations on several files.
    Bash_Extract-DiscriData.html
  • Shell script to get and process music data using LastFM API. Example of wget, XML data munging using xmlstarlet, piping to other utilities...in short, an illustration of a point or two of the Unix Philosophy.

  • Shell script that calls an R script by supplying input and output file names to it. In essence, a couple of placeholder strings in the R script is replaced with the input and output filenames, and the modified R script stored temporarily and run. (Original script in a different form inherited from an unknown author at MPI Leipzig; adapted by me for this purpose).
