<0> i guess you can output binary data using the awk in plan9
<1> WuWei: Nice.
<1> WuWei: I had to use hexdump + awk for some binary pattern matching.
<0> yes but you have to use plan9 :-P
<1> WuWei: Not for my method, though mine is slow and cumbersome ;)
<0> i see, plan9 awk has a function utf()
<1> hexdump < file.bin | awk '/fecabeba0000/ { print "This is a Java file!"; }'
<0> i thought about using uudecode to output a sound file under unix
<1> WuWei: That'd be interesting.
<1> WuWei: hexdump is 1:1 correspondence with the file, though.
<1> WuWei: And you can see the output.
<0> yes but it only converts binary to text. not vice-versa
<1> WuWei: Oh, well; you can't win them all.
<1> WuWei: I could write something in awk that uses %b if it's supported to do bit values... along with a pipe. I'd have to think about that.
<0> awk -f program.awk|uudecode should do the trick



<0> of course you have to implement uuencode in awk
<0> someone did that already. let me give you the link
<1> WuWei: I've done it.
<1> WuWei: That's why I'm thinking of it as an interview question.
<0> :-)
<0> http://ucxray.berkeley.edu/~jamesh/elves/scripts/tuencode.awk
<1> WuWei: I don't necessarily want the candidate to write it; just to tell me what he'd need.
<0> in that case, am i a unix guru? :-P
<0> there may be other ways of course, like MIME or base64
<0> but uuencode is in the base system
<1> WuWei: I don't know; let me look at that.
<1> WuWei: And no, you haven't p***ed. I want you to tell me what you'd use.
<1> WuWei: Oh, for your thing.
<1> WuWei: Yeah, that looks good.
<1> WuWei: I thought you meant the web server. Yeah, coolio.
<0> :-)
<1> OKi, nap time.
<1> Z z .
<0> see you later...
<1> Z z .

<7> hi
<7> How do I connect to a port using awk
<8> haha
<8> shantanu: You don't.
<7> hmm
<8> Why would you want to?
<8> What do you want to do?
<7> connect to a port and send data
<8> I see.
<8> Any experience with any programming/scripting languages?
<7> python yes



<8> Do it in python?
<7> no just wondering whether awk can do it
<7> I have already done it in Python
<8> ok
<8> "The Awk text-processing programming language is a useful and simple tool for manipulating text."
<7> right
<7> can one do it with shell?
<8> Depends.
<7> ?
<8> Depends on the shell.
<8> Recent versions of bash, can do socket stuff, if compiled with the needed options.
<7> bash or ksh
<8> Or maybe you could use a tool, like "netcat" or something.
<7> ok
<7> thanks
<1> goldfish: HeH.
<8> ? :)
<1> goldfish: We added "what would you need to build a web server using only bash and UNIX tools?" to our interview questions.
<8> hehe.
<1> goldfish: netcat is one of the things you'd need :)
<8> Can I have a job? :)
<1> goldfish: Sure. Where do you live?
<8> Ireland!
<1> goldfish: Are you willing to relocate to the Bay Area?
<1> goldfish: Damn.
<1> goldfish: Hrm...
<1> goldfish: Have you worked in the US before?
<8> Nah, I'm still at university.
<1> goldfish: If you have/had an H-1B visa already our HR folk will push the paperwork through.
<8> 2 years left :-(
<1> goldfish: Ah.
<1> goldfish: Which Ireland? Ireland-Ireland or the UK Ireland?
<1> goldfish: Lemme think...
<8> Well they're both the same island.
<8> UK Ireland is called "Northern Ireland"
<8> I live in the Republic Of Ireland
<1> goldfish: Being in the EU, I can definitely recommend you for an internship at ASDA.
<8> :)
<1> goldfish: Ah, Ireland-Ireland. c001!!!
<1> goldfish: ;)
<8> ASDA as in the supermarket? :)
<1> goldfish: Yes.
<8> hehe
<8> I'll probably end up there, stacking shelves.
<1> goldfish: Next year, around this time, we'll be piloting some pretty cool stuff there.
<1> goldfish: That's why I need the hardcore *NIX guys now.
<8> nice
<1> goldfish: So Stay Tuned around December; that's when I let people know about our internships if the channel rules allow for that.
<8> Okies.
<8> :)
<1> goldfish: You'd submit your paperwork and stuff around January, and the company will let you know by mid-February if you're good to go.
<8> Ah right.
<8> Well, I probably wouldn't be, I haven't had a proper job in the IT sector yet. We do it in second semester of 3rd year.
<8> Which starts in 2 weeks yay!
<1> goldfish: HeH.
<1> goldfish: You'll be good to go next year then :)
<8> :)
<8> We do proper hardcore networks this year, should be fun.
<8> Although we have to do it in C, the lecturer hates all other programming languages.
<8> And also speaking of netcat, I should really learn more about it.
<1> goldfish: C 0wnZ.
<8> HArd to grasp at first :)
<1> goldfish: Tell your teacher that in a perfect world you guys would learn an ***embler first, then C.
<1> goldfish: If you did that, C would be dead easy :)
<1> goldfish: In my day sonny, that's how it was done because... well, C compilers came out much later than BASIC and ***emblers for personal computers :)
<1> goldfish: Let me know if you need help with C.
<8> cool, thanks :)
<8> cya
