Guys,
can you help me in doing cut first 21 and 32-35 characters from file.

'man cut' yields:

Code:

     -c list
           The list following -c  specifies  character  positions
           (for  instance, -c1-72 would pass the first 72 charac-
           ters of each line).

     list  A comma-separated or blank-character-separated list of
           integer  field  numbers  (in  increasing  order), with
           optional - to indicate ranges  (for  instance,  1,4,7;
           1-3,8;  -5,10  (short  for  1-5,10);  or 3- (short for
           third through last field)).
