ducatisti, you need not use cat. Use awk directly on the file.
try this:
Code:
# RETAILER=JEWL
# cat /tmp/tmp.tmp
WLG 150
JEWL 60
CVS 240
FLN 120
WND 120
# awk -v awkret=$RETAILER '{if($1==awkret) print $2}' /tmp/tmp.tmp
60

For solaris, use nawk instead of awk.

GENCFU(1)							 ICU 50.1.2 Manual							 GENCFU(1)

NAME
gencfu - Generates Unicode Confusable data files SYNOPSIS
gencfu [ -h, -?, --help ] [ -V, --version ] [ -c, --copyright ] [ -v, --verbose ] [ -d, --destdir destination ] [ -i, --icudatadir direc- tory ] -r, --rules rule-file -w, --wsrules whole-script-rule-file -o, --out output-file DESCRIPTION
gencfu reads confusable character definitions in the input file, which are plain text files containing confusable character definitions in the input format defined by Unicode UAX39 for the files confusables.txt and confusablesWholeScript.txt. This source (.txt) format is also accepted by ICU spoof detectors. The files must be encoded in utf-8 format, with or without a BOM. Normally the output data file has the .cfu extension. OPTIONS
-h, -?, --help Print help about usage and exit. -V, --version Print the version of gencfu and exit. -c, --copyright Embeds the standard ICU copyright into the output-file. -v, --verbose Display extra informative messages during execution. -d, --destdir destination Set the destination directory of the output-file to destination. -i, --icudatadir directory Look for any necessary ICU data files in directory. For example, the file pnames.icu must be located when ICU's data is not built as a shared library. The default ICU data directory is specified by the environment variable ICU_DATA. Most configurations of ICU do not require this argument. -r, --rules rule-file The source file to read. -w, --wsrules whole-script-rule-file The whole script source file to read. -o, --out output-file The output data file to write.
