I am going to Newport beach after all – I will arrive Friday evening and leave Monday evening so I can be back to teach Tuesday. So I will go to the project coordination meeting mostly. See you there.

Nifty C-Shell foreach script Trick for spaces with file names
This code did not work with files with spaces in the name:
foreach i ( `find . -name '*.java'` ) ls -l "$i"
This code did work:
foreach ii ( `find . -name '*.java' | sed 's/ /@@@@/g'` ) set i=`echo $ii | sed 's/@@@@/ /g'` ls -l "$i"
I was quite pleased – I almost resorted to using walk in Python – but that was averted. Somehow Sakai’s assignments tool (in mid semester) changed the format of the “Download all for grading” ZIP file. I am sure it is an improvement – but it broke my C-Shell scripts I use for grading.
