Find line before blank
Hello,
I actually have two issues. First, here is the file the way it is now. someword someword:1 new-word new-word abcd someword someword:10 new-word new-word abcd thisis whatIneed:3 someword someword:5 new-word new-word abcd I need to get the line before the 2 blanks and move it to a different file. I've tried using sed, but keep getting error messages. Also, there may be none, one, or several instances of this within the file. I should probably also mention that this is part of a larger perl script I'm working on. I have everything else done, the file above is actually generated by the script. I also have everything below it complete, but am completely stuck at this point. Any help with either would be appreciated. Last edited by ddrew78; 03-18-2009 at 07:43 PM.. |
