With cut & paste from your post.
on Linux:
Code:
% cat file
CHANNEL(SYSTEM.DEF.CLUSRCVR) CHLTYPE(CLUSRCVR)
CHANNEL(TO.EAIDVBR1) CHLTYPE(CLUSRCVR)
% gawk '{print $2}' FS="[()]" file
SYSTEM.DEF.CLUSRCVR
TO.EAIDVBR1
% mawk '{print $2}' FS="[()]" file
SYSTEM.DEF.CLUSRCVR
TO.EAIDVBR1
on Solaris:
Code:
$ /usr/xpg4/bin/awk '{print $2}' FS="[()]" file
SYSTEM.DEF.CLUSRCVR
TO.EAIDVBR1
$ nawk '{print $2}' FS="[()]" file
SYSTEM.DEF.CLUSRCVR
TO.EAIDVBR1
Doesn't work with the old awk on Solaris, but gives a different result
(produce no output at all):
Code:
$ awk '{print $2}' FS="[()]" file
$
