[Sheflug] HTML Logs

[Richard Ibbotson <richard [at] xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

Can any of our Perl or scripting people out there explain what's wrong
with this script ?


#!/bin/sh

echo `<h1>Log files in /var/log</h1><p>`
echo `<table border=1> <tr><th>Name<th>date<th>size<tr>
ls -ld /var/log/* |  \
sed -e "s/^[-rwxds]*[ 0-9]* \([a-z0-9A-Z]* *\)\{2\} \([0-9]*\)
\([A-Za-z]\{3\} *[0-9]\{1,2\} *[0-9:]*\)\/\4\5>\5<\/a><td>\3<td
align=RIGHT>
\2<tr>/"echo `</table>`



it bombs out with the following error message..

./logfile: line 8: unexpected EOF while looking for matching ``'
./logfile: line 9: syntax error: unexpected end of file



What I'm trying to do it turn my logs in /var/log into HTML pages so
that I can view them in a web browser.

Thanks




Richard
