Need to get the first column of data
Hello,
if i have a file with this in it: aaaa bbbb cccc dddd how can i read that file and move the first column only into a variable? i've been trying the cut command but can't seem to get it right, ie HTML Code:
wc all_flist_zp.out > wc.out
cut -b 1 wc.out > wc.out2
cat wc.out2
passvar=`cat wc.out2`
passvar=`echo $passvar | sed -e 's/^ *//' -e 's/ *$//'`
echo "passvar:" $passvar
echo $passvar
