sh: Inserting tabs and moving text to 1 line
I trying to extract certain text from a csv file and then placing it into another csv file, but having problems getting the data to placed in one line with tab separated fields.
Basically would like to have text sent to interfaces.csv in one line seperated by tabs. As it currently places files in <new_line> with no tabs.
Some help would be great.
example of script::
------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh
#
# <24/07/2007>
#
#
#
#
DIR=/home/files/reports
export DIR
LOGDIR=/home/me
export LOGDIR
rm $LOGDIR/interfaces.csv
rm $LOGDIR/log
for FILE in $DIR/*
do
cat $FILE | head -2 | tail -1 | cut -d'"' -f2 >> $LOGDIR/interfaces.csv
cat $FILE | head -6 | tail -1 | cut -d"," -f3,4 >> $LOGDIR/interfaces.csv
if [ $? -ne 0 ]
then
echo "$FILE FAILED!!" >> log
else
echo "$FILE COMPLETE!!" >> log
fi
done
