Change order of a plist - xcode

I've made a plist with a bunch of strings. Now it turned out that I have written the strings in the wrong way. I want all the strings to the right be placed left and all the strings to left be placed to right. Is it possible?

There can be two ways to do this -
You need to do all the stuff manually.
You can have a script which will do this task for you. For similar sample scripts you can refer - http://macscripter.net/viewtopic.php?id=20152
Nothing as such is available in Xcode to do this for you.

Possible to copy/move/etc multiple files of same base name via Windows CMD/.BAT?

I am wondering if it is possible to accomplish the following, given some context and example.
I have files in "Server\Share\Folder\File##.ext"
Sometimes the "File##.ext" can be "File01.ext" through "File20.ext", and other times it may be "File01.ext" through "File40.ext"
Sometimes there are less of these files, sometimes there are more.
I want a batch file to take the files from "Server\Share\Folder\File##.ext" and move them to "Server\Share\OtherFolder\File##.ext". I know I can accomplish this easily with:
copy /y "Server\Share\Folder\File01.ext" "Server\Share\OtherFolder\File01.ext"
Then just add another line for each extra "File02.ext, File03.ext, etc., but I am wondering if it is possible to make it so that any file that resembles "File##.ext" can be included, so that no matter how many ## I have, it always works without issue.
Thanks in advance for any and all advice!
EDIT
Someone mentioned using Wildcards, but my question with that is - lets say those files are File01.ext through File05.ext, will it match what it finds to the newly moved file? Like will it find File01 from File?? on the source and Make it File01 from File?? at the destination?
You can accomplish this task with a FORloop program in batch-file.
You can also loop through the Commands using : and variable name.
Combining these two would help you get what you want.

How to split a large csv file into multiple files in GO lang?

I am a novice Go lang programmer,trying to learn Go lang features.I wanted to split a large csv file into multiple files in GO lang, each file containing the header.How do i do this? I have searched everywhere but couldnt get the right solution.Any help in this regard will be greatly appreciated.
Also please suggest me a good book for reference.
Thanking You
Depending on your shell fu this problem might be better suited for common shell utilities but you specifically mentioned go.
Let's think through the problem.
How big is this csv file? Are we talking 100 lines or is it 5G ?
If it's smallish I typically use this:
http://golang.org/pkg/io/ioutil/#ReadFile
However, this package also exists:
http://golang.org/pkg/encoding/csv/
Regardless - let's return to the abstraction of the problem. You have a header (which is the first line) and then the rest of the document.
So what we probably want to do (if ignoring csv for the moment) is to read in our file.
Then we want to split the file body by all the newlines in it.
You can use this to do so:
http://golang.org/pkg/strings/#Split
You didn't mention but do you know how many files you want to split by or would you rather split by the line count or byte count? What's the actual limitation here?
Generally it's not going to be file count but if we pretend it is we simply want to divide our line count by our expected file count to give lines/file.
Now we can take slices of the appropriate size and write the file back out via:
http://golang.org/pkg/io/ioutil/#WriteFile
A trick I use sometime to help think me threw these things is to write down our mission statement.
"I want to split a large csv file into multiple files in go"
Then I start breaking that up into pieces but take the divide/conquer approach - don't try to solve the entire problem in one go - just break it up to where you can think about it.
Also - make gratiutious use of pseudo-code until you can comfortably write the real code itself. Sometimes it helps to just write a short comment inline with how you think the code should flow and then get it down to the smallest portion that you can code and work from there.
By the way - many of the golang.org packages have example links where you can literally run in your browser the example code and cut/paste that to your own local environment.
Also, I know I'll catch some haters with this - but as for books - imo - you are going to learn a lot faster just by trying to get things working rather than reading. Action trumps passivity always. Don't be afraid to fail.
Here is a package that might help. You can set a necessary chunk size in bytes and a file will be split on an appropriate amount of chunks.

RoboHelp CSH always goes to the first help page

I have a WebHelp content directory created using RoboHelp 9. From a web application, I'm trying to display a specific help page using their CSH JavaScript API:
RH_ShowHelp(0, "WebHelp/index.htm>MainWindow", HH_HELP_CONTEXT, <some map id>);
The problem is, the resultant popup always displays the first help topic, regardless of the map id I pass. Does the map file that was created for the RoboHelp project need to be included somewhere in the resultant WebHelp directory? I would think that RoboHelp would handle including whatever it needed in the generated content.
I think what's more likely is that I messed up somewhere in generating the map file/ids. To generate the map ids, I did the following:
Created a new map file
Double clicked it to open the map file window
Selected everything from the right list block (all the topics and help sections)
Clicked 'Auto Generate'
Are there further steps I need to follow before CSH will work?
Perhaps you forgot to include your mapfile in the generated output.
This is done in Web Help, under Content Categories.
Then, you can specify the topic number in the last argument to RH_ShowHelp.
Are you using the published output (not the generated output) in your content directory?
If that doesn't help, you can use simple links like this, which open the specified topic in help in the Help framework:
http://example.com/WebHelp/index.htm#someSubfolderThatIsAChildOfTheRootHelpFolder/theTopicYouWant.htm

csv/txt file content comparison in ruby. - for multiple pairs of files

Its like there are mutliple pairs of files that needs to be compared. Then a result text file will display if there are pairs that have different contents, and will also display the differences.
Please help if there is existing code/application that can do this. Or if its possible in ruby? If yes, how and where should I start?
Thanks
Perhaps another tool may help you better - or is there a reason why you need ruby?
Some examples:
kdiff (free)
Beyond Compare (
diff (unix tool)

Eliminating code duplication in a single file

Sadly, a project that I have been working on lately has a large amount of copy-and-paste code, even within single files. Are there any tools or techniques that can detect duplication or near-duplication within a single file? I have Beyond Compare 3 and it works well for comparing separate files, but I am at a loss for comparing single files.
Thanks in advance.
Edit:
Thanks for all the great tools! I'll definitely check them out.
This project is an ASP.NET/C# project, but I work with a variety of languages including Java; I'm interested in what tools are best (for any language) to remove duplication.
Check out Atomiq. It finds code that is duplicate that is prime for extracting to one location.
http://www.getatomiq.com/
If you're using Eclipse, you can use the copy paste detector (CPD) https://olex.openlogic.com/packages/cpd.
You don't say what language you are using, which is going to affect what tools you can use.
For Python there is CloneDigger. It also supports Java but I have not tried that. It can find code duplication both with a single file and between files, and gives you the result as a diff-like report in HTML.
See SD CloneDR, a tool for detecting copy-paste-edit code within and across multiple files. It detects exact copyies, copies that have been reformatted, and near-miss copies with different identifiers, literals, and even different seqeunces of statements.
The CloneDR handles many languages, including Java (1.4,1.5,1.6) and C# especially up to C#4.0. You can see sample clone detection reports at the website, also including one for C#.
Resharper does this automagically - it suggests when it thinks code should be extracted into a method, and will do the extraction for you
Check out PMD , once you have configured it (which is tad simple) you can run its copy paste detector to find duplicate code.
One with some Office skills can do following sequence in 1 minute:
use ordinary formatter to unify the code style, preferably without line wrapping
feed the code text into Microsoft Excel as a single column
search and replace all dual spaces with single one and do other replacements
sort column
At this point the keywords for duplicates will be already well detected. But to go further
add comparator formula to 2nd column and counter to 3rd
copy and paste values again, sort and see the most repetitive lines
There is an analysis tool, called Simian, which I haven't yet tried. Supposedly it can be run on any kind of text and point out duplicated items. It can be used via a command line interface.
Another option similar to those above, but with a different tool chain: https://www.npmjs.com/package/jscpd
