Substitution of text in the Terminal

The feature of substitution of text in Mac OS X is an interesting and useful feature. I see that we can use this feature in applications such as TextEdit. However, is there a way that we can use this function in the terminal application?

I use this feature of system preferences > keyboard > text

OS: Mac OS X El Capitan

I can't imagine what you're trying to do.

If, for example, you try to insert the symbol ½ on the line of your terminal, you can use the menu of the Terminal to go to Edition > Emoji & symbols and insert it there.

  • Is the substitution of text above layer

    I have text in layer (bottom) one and I have a ToolTip widget in the upper layer, and layer text we substitute the ToolTip widget?

    What's not?

    I think you need to do is to rethink the way the menu bar is built for the widget to place online properly.

    You can create the menu as a menu 'Manual', see attachment and squeeze the widget in-between to the menu items, then your widget to fit in the tail.

    Note be sure to 'Y' to '27' corresponds to the height of 'Y' in your menu box. On display inside the Muse it resembles the one pixel wide but very good insights.

    The following attachment shows the preview. (Note: do not add any text on the widget)

  • The substitution of text in table headers

    Hello

    I'm working on a document in CS3 where a table flows across columns. I want to put 2 header lines appear in each column, but I was wondering if it will be possible to have this, but to replace the text in one of the headers (this is the style of line, I repeat, not the text, which should say "blah blah blah" in the first column, then 'blah blah blah' continues in the following columns)?

    Anyone know if this is possible? I was hoping to avoid mobile lines around text in the tables is subject to change.

    Thanks for your help

    See you soon

    Table > table Options > headers and footers > header repeat: each column of text and then check the first Skip button.

    This way you can set the first column the way you like it and then set up the second column as you like all the rest.

  • Gaberlunzie in the terminal instead of the hostname prompt

    Hello

    I launched terminal today and instead of the usual "HOSTNAME: directory$ ' format, he says" Gaberlunzie: directory$.  I left the terminal and restarted and it was gone and I was not able to reproduce.  From the Windows world, this seems highly suspicious to me.  Has anyone seen this happen on their Mac?  I downloaded Avast Mac Security and perform a scan just as a precaution, but I thought that I would like to tender hand to the community to see if anyone had any ideas as to the reason for this strange behavior.

    Thanks in advance.

    The bash shell when the substitution therapy \h in your string of prompt PS1 taking your IP address of nn.nn.nn.nn and a loss by doing a DNS lookup.  If the DNS server returns a name, that name appears under your host name.  If this isn't the case name is returned, then your system preferences-> sharing-> computer name is displayed.

    Your DNS server gave your Mac this Gaberlunzie name because at the same time Gaberlunzie registered with the DNS server it name associated with the IP address you are using.

    It must have been a temporary situation as the next time that you start a session of shell bash that research did not return Gaberlunzie.  If I had to guess, I would say that gaberlunzie re-recorded with the DNS server under a different IP address, so the former association with the IP address you are using has been removed.

    If you do not want to be subjected to what the server DNS has said that your host name is that you can change your PS1 prompt string to use something like

    Ps1 = "$(networksetup-getcomputername):\W."

  • Why isn't the TERMINAL font available in MSPAINT?

    Is it possible to get the TERMINAL that will be displayed in MSPAINT of XP-HOME police? I would like to see how useful it can be to be able to use the characters in manufacture box.

    Thank you

    Hi funding.

    It seems that the only place it is available directly is in the command line. The Terminal font is the font used in the command prompt window.

    Then, follow the steps to work around the problem.

    (a) open a command prompt.

    (b) type as required.

    (c) copy and paste the text you type.

    (d) change if necessary.

  • How can I centralize text on the button?

    Hello

    I made the button graphic using some effects of filling and then wanted to add text to it. Of course I could just put a block of text above and group them, and then convert it to button, and which works very well. The problem is when I want to add the substitution effect. I just wanted to add a simple glow effect for this, but if I used a component grouped, it places the glow effect on two points in the group, including the text, ruining the graph.

    I can type text directly in the graph button to avoid these effects of doubles, but then I can't align the text vertically in the button, because unlike the blocks of text, graphic blocks do not offer a vertical alignment option.

    The only viable option seems to be to place and graphics adding to the effect of substitution of a file, which seems to be too complicated and messy. Intuitively I would have thought a rollover State could be created simply by dragging another graph in this position - but that is not possible either.

    Anyone has any advice on how to achieve this?

    Jason

    [edit]

    I solved the problem by using the vertical offset, but this doesn't seem to be the right way to go about it for me...

    Try this: do not apply the glow effect to the group, only apply it to the shape of the background. To do this, select only the background shape with the direct Selection tool and open the effects window.

  • Use values Pluging of notification in the text of the message (apex 4)

    I try to get something to work as in the example for the plugin, http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=654321:401:4379211328287332:, where you can see that when you make a change, it triggers the notification and knows the value of the list. But how do I get the value of the selected list item to enter in the text of the message? I have installed the plugin, created a dynamic action when an LOV changes and the notification appears and everything is fine, just I want my message to say "you have selected < current value of LOV >."

    Hi shoe,

    Take a look at the level of the text field of the help "text" attribute. It is said:

    The text inside the notification.

    The following placeholder is available:

    Syntax of Substitution on the server side: replaces a placeholder during the rendering of the page. Example: & P6_CATEGORY.
    The syntax of Substitution on the client side: replaces a placeholder with the current value of the browser. Example: #P6_CATEGORY #.

  • How to add a hyperlink in the text of the legend?

    Hello

    I am using Captivate 5. Everyone knows how to insert a hyperlink in a text caption? For example, the text in the text of the legend are 'See Adobe Captivate Forum for more details'. How to create a hyperlink for 'Adobe Captivate Forum' which leads to the website of the forum?

    Thank you

    Helen

    There is no hyperlink tru object in Captivate as such.

    You can use a button or click box to provide users with an interactive object that when you click on will call a URL or a document.

    However, this is not really you give a substitution effect of mouse than the way users are accustomed to seeing in normal web hyperlinks.

    If you really want to add a piece of text of the hyperlink screen (with substitution effect) for a Captivate project, the closest, you will come to is this widget: http://www.infosemantics.com.au/hyperlink

  • Extraction of text from the strings in a single cell of a row of cells

    Hello

    Is there an easier way to search a text / word of a string in the row of cells, and where a match is found back a header text - see the example below.

    The left table contains the initial positions of conformity in groups of companies. I would like to complete the table on the right with compliance positions indicated in the table on the left, using the header text (red zone). Example 1 shows that "C company" is not in line with the left table and returns a "Non-compliant" in the relevant cell for company C. Example 2 A company, C and Z are in line with the left table and returns "comply" in the relevant cell in company A, C and Z respectively. It goes the same for the partial.

    The lines must also be aligned as shown in the left column will contain a single reference (not shown in the example).

    My current approach was to simply build a small matrix and use IF (COUNTIF ($E5, "* company A *" "'), 'In line'," "") - this works fine, but is a bit messy - obtained above table, it's really what I like o would reach.

    I also tried to use nested 'FI', 'find', 'Index' and 'Match' combinations, based on a few positions at the beginning, but not could not get the correct syntax.

    Would appreciate other solutions for the construction of the table to the right.

    Thank you in advance...

    Pasel

    This may work for you:

    A2 = if (COUNTA ('Table 1 - company compliance Positions': $A2) > 0, IF (LEN ('Table 1 - company compliance Positions': $A2) −LEN (SUBSTITUTE ('Table 1 - company compliance Positions': $A2, A$ 1, "")) > 0, 'table 1 - company compliance Positions': $A$ 1, ' '), "") & IF (COUNTA ('Table 1 - company compliance Positions': $B2) > 0, IF (LEN ('Table 1 - company compliance Positions': $B2) −LEN (SUBSTITUTE ("table 1 - company compliance Positions")) ((((: $B2, a$ 1, ' ')) > 0, "table 1 - company compliance Positions": $B$ 1, ' '), "") & IF (COUNTA ('Table 1 - company compliance Positions': $C2) > 0, IF (LEN ('Table 1 - company compliance Positions': $C2) −LEN (SUBSTITUTE ('Table 1 - company compliance Positions': $C2, A$ 1, "")) > 0, "table 1 - company compliance Positions": $C$ 1, ""), "")

    It's shorthand dethrone select cell A2, and then type (or copy and paste it here) the formula:

    = IF (COUNTA ('Table 1 - company compliance Positions': $A2) > 0, IF (LEN ('Table 1 - company compliance Positions': $A2) −LEN (SUBSTITUTE ('Table 1 - company compliance Positions': $A2, A$ 1, "")) > 0, 'table 1 - company compliance Positions': $A$ 1, ' '), "") & IF (COUNTA ('Table 1 - company compliance Positions': $B2) > 0, IF (LEN ('Table 1 - company compliance Positions': $B2) −LEN (SUBSTITUTE ("table 1 - company compliance Positions")) ((((: $B2, a$ 1, ' ')) > 0, "table 1 - company compliance Positions": $B$ 1, ' '), "") & IF (COUNTA ('Table 1 - company compliance Positions': $C2) > 0, IF (LEN ('Table 1 - company compliance Positions': $C2) −LEN (SUBSTITUTE ('Table 1 - company compliance Positions': $C2, A$ 1, "")) > 0, "table 1 - company compliance Positions": $C$ 1, ""), "")

  • How to change the default alignment of text in the cells in a table on the demand for numbers?

    I'm new to Mac. I own a MacBook pro MF839HN/A and currently using the 3.6.2 release NUMBERS (2577). I want to know if I can change the default alignment of text in the cell in a table of NUMBERS application? Also, when I select all the cells in a table to change their alignment, I can only change the horizontal alignment of the text and not the vertical alignment. To change the vertical alignment of the text in a cell, I have to select them individually. Help me with two questions.

    When I say, "Siri, text my wife, 'X', ' Siri responds correctly,"here is your message to Jill: 'X'.

    I tried to restart my phone.  I tried to remove and re-add my contacts.  Anyone else having this problem?  Someone knows how to solve?
