Shell Programming and Scripting

so?? that does not relate to the problem you are trying to solve. you want to arrange data in a file, so what does it have to do with the ftp part? where is the code to arrange data that you have tried?

well thats anautomated script comes with this package, system is generating this file daily.

Wel right now i have no concerned how system is generating this file.

once system generates this file, i will fetch the file through ftp script i mentioned earlier.

but after fetching it, I get RAW data all in mess. So i want to display it as mentioned earlier.

Now can anyone help me out.

Okay, you get "RAW data all in mess". You want to display it as mentioned earlier.

(a) If you haven't written a script that converts raw data to your format, then try to write one first.

(b) If you have written such a script, then post it here.

ok i tried using "sort" command

i even tried "awk" and "sed" but it didnt came out, and i knw awk and sed will do this

here's wat i tried

awk '/$4 {print $NF}' filename | more

i later tried paste command

paste -d '|' filename | more (so that once file is replaced with pipe against "," and spaces it can be handled easily)

then i tried using sort command

sort -u filename | more

even sed didnt help me out

sed 's/,/|/ filename | more (i m not sure about this clause, here i tried to replace "," with pipe "|")

i might be using wrong format, so need help.
