Remove white space at the beginning of lines
Hi!
I store some data obtained with grep or awk in a file. The problem is that some lines have white space at the begining : [w h i t e s p a c e]line1 line2 [whitespace]line3 I use something like grep WORD INFILE >> OUTFILE awk [script] >> OUTFILE I would love if it were possible to remove the white whitout parsing the OUTFILE after the grep or awk command. Is there an option like I could put in the grep or awk saying "keep only what is at left of the white space"? Any better idea? Thanks a lot, Tipi |
