Multiple field separators in awk? (First a space, then a colon)
How do I deal with extracting a portion of a record when multiple field separators are involved.
Let's say I have: Mike Harrington;(555) 555-5555:250:100:175 Christian Dobbins;(555) 555-2358:155:90:201 Susan Dalsass;(555) 555-6279:250:60:50 Archie McNichol;(555) 555-1348:250:100:175 Jody Savage;(555) 555-1278:15:188:150 How can I print only last names beginning with a D? I just want the Dalsass and Dobbins to print. This... awk -F: '$1 ~ / D/ {print $1}' donors.txt just gives me both names. How can I eliminate the first names from printing? Thanks!
