who | grep -v username | awk '{print $1}'
works just fine for my purpose.
But still there is the issue of filtering text from a string, so that you can print the rest of the string contents. Or the other way around. Printing just the text (or the word(s) that matches the search criteria) you're looking for.
If you ask me grep should do it. But extending grep is to mutch work (or perhaps I'm to lazy
).
The challenge is to do this with a script.
PS: I'm using FreeBSD.

Is there a command I could use to print the filenames, less the last 8 characters? Was thinking of using sed 's/<last 8 chars>//',... (1 Reply)

ZGREP(1) General Commands Manual ZGREP(1)
NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression
SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename...
DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code:
(-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the
standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep.
If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked.
EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified.
