Hello,

I need an help for a shellscript.

I have a process that create an output file with a list of names, and it create an output file ( everytime the list of names can change ), this is the output file let's call names.txt:


prgrm> list nametable show NAMES

NAMES
-------------------------------
JOHN
MARK
ANTHONY
GEORGE

4 row returned.

prgrm> spool off



I want to use SED or ( something else would be nice and appreciated as well ) for creating a second file named names2.txt with this content:

JOHN
MARK
ANTHONY
GEORGE


This was an example... and everytime the name list may vary....
Can you help me ? My brain is smoking for thinking about a solution

Many Thanks

You are spooling the file - can you not get a copy for your own use?

Hi Jim,

yes I am building a big shellscript that run other processes, unofrtunaely the program I am using spool files in that format... that's why I need to edit the output and reusing it for other purposes.....

Thanks

I think, no header and no summary/feedback can help you,
I don't remember exactly but i was running in same problem almost a year back and it was solved using the way i just told you
