i have a file like this I need to get the Bold time in a Varibale and the 11=020I80A3400 also in A varibale so please Help me to do that please

the following will only work if the pattern in bold occurs in the specified places always n the length of the pattern also remains same. m is the file in which i have stored the file u had given.
x=`sed -n 1p m|awk -F"^" '{print $1}'|cut -c 1-12`
y=`sed -n 2p m|awk -F"^" '{print $7}'|cut -c 2-14`

so plz specify the exact nature of the problem

I have a tag in the file it's 35=D before this tag i have the time of the tag which I mentioned about it before and after the 35=D I have another tag which is 11=some string ex(11=0011IN)
so the file look like that

40=2^A44=43.5^A59=0^A386=1^A336=510^A10=059^A

and usually 35=D is in the same line of the Time and the 11=111111 in the next line


so Please I need Help

Code:

sed -n "/35=D/{N;/11=/{s/^\([^ ]*\).*\n.*\(11=[^^]*\).*$/\1 \2/p;};}" file

Can you please explain your statement. By looking at that, it is complex to understand.

/35=D/{...}

If the line contains the pattern 35=D then execute the commands within the paranthesis.

N

get the next line and append it to the pattern space

/11=/{..}

If the pattern space contains the pattern 11= then execute the commands within the paranthesis.


s/^\([^ ]*\).*\n.*\(11=[^^]*\).*$/\1 \2/p

What we need in the first line is "09:30:04,438" which is separated from next word by space. This string is matched by \([^ ]*\). The next string is matched by \(11=[^^]*\) which is separated from the next field by ^.

Thanks Anbu !!
BTW, Habuzahra, are you able to continue your work?
