Problems with AWK
Hi I am writing a shell script for a number of things and aone problem that keeps comming up is AWK formatting. When commands are typed into the command line they are fine, but when executed in the script the results are pilled up and not in a list/table format. I have tried using awk'/$input/{print $1,$2,$...etc.... But it doesn't work, nothing happens, the code may aswell be invisible. anyway here is the code I have written. Code:
echo "Type in user: " read input echo "The last login of $input was: " `last $input | tail -10 | NEED CODE HERE FOR FORMATTING` the result that comes out atm is: Code:
The last login of jsk1gcc was: jsk1gcc pts/17 192.168.***.** Tue Nov 17 09:35 - 12:13 (02:37) jsk1gcc pts/12 192.168.***.** Tue Nov 10 10:28 - 10:30 (00:02) jsk1gcc pts/14 192.168.***.** how to I get it to do list like this this instead: Code:
The last login of jsk1gcc was: jsk1gcc pts/17 192.168.***.** Tue Nov 17 09:35 - 12:13 (02:37) jsk1gcc pts/12 192.168.***.** Tue Nov 10 10:28 - 10:30 (00:02) jsk1gcc pts/14 192.168.***.** Tue Nov 10 10:22 - 12:14 (01:51) Jade. |

Quote the output of the command: Code:
echo "The last login of $input was: " "`last $input | tail -10 | NEED CODE HERE FOR FORMATTING`" or just: Code:
echo "The last login of $input was: " last $input | tail -10 |
