doubleL

Perl script to restore LL to batch of text files where second L is replaced by space. The github url is https://github.com/gethryn/doubleL.

Run the Cleaning Script (works with multiple files):

• Add your input files to the html subdirectory ~/Documents/BookFixScripts/doubleL/html using Finder.

• Open a Terminal. (Open Finder, and press Cmd-Shift-U to open utilities menu. Double click on Terminal to open a terminal window).

  I recommend you download iTerm instead of the basic terminal. Pin it to your dock.

• Use git pull to bring down the latest scripts (see below for details).

• Navigate to the working directory: cd ~/Documents/BookFixScripts/doubleL (note, this is the same as /Users/gramps/Documents/BookFixScripts/doubleL).

• Type the following to begin processing the files: perl fixDoubleL_batch.pl and press return.

The script will automatically use the filename doubleL_words.txt for the list of LL words. If you want to specify a different one, just give the name after the perl script name in the command line: perl fixDoubleL_batch.pl other_LL_file.txt.

• The cleaned files are generated in the html directory with a _clean designation in the filenames.

Git Instructions to Publish Your Changes:

• git status will tell you what's changed.

• git add filename for each filename that's changed if you want to commit it to the server.

• git commit -m "What you changed" to prepare the payload for the server

• git push to deploy to the server.

Git Instructions Pull down the latest files from the server.

• git pull to pull doen the latest from the server.

If you get an error that the information on your machine is newer than server local copy (see below), just run git push to send your changes to the server, and then run git pull again. You don't need to worry about one overwriting the other. Git will merge the changes as long as we haven't bioth changed the same part of a file.

What directory am I in? Get me home!

• Enter the command pwd (print working directory) to tell you where you are.
• Enter the command cd on it's own to take you to your home folder ~ (i.e. /Users/gramps/).
• Use cd - to go back to the directory you were last at (useful if you use cd to go home, and then want to go back to ~/Documents/BooxFixScripts/doubleL without all that typing).
• Use up arrow to scroll through previous commands.

For Geth's reference later

• Use the command sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ohmyzsh/ohmyzsh/master/tools/install.sh)" to install OhMyZSH (better command line prompts/tools).

• We may also need powerline fonts, which can be installed with the following:

  # clone
  git clone https://github.com/powerline/fonts.git --depth=1
  # install
  cd fonts
  ./install.sh
  # clean-up a bit
  cd ..
  rm -rf fonts
