I may be missing something.. well.. I'm sure I'm missing something.
I tried the suggestion above and tried several combinations, but I don't seem to be capturing the variables correctly. Can you take a look and see if there is anything obvious. - Thanks
>cat dtscript.ksh
#!/bin/ksh
IFS=`:
`
set -- $(grep "$(date +%b%e)" fileX)
set -- $(egrep "$2|$3" fileY)
echo "You are oncall today $(date +%D)" "$2 $4"
#mailx -s "You're oncall today $(date +%D)" "$2 $4"
>cat fileX
10/04/07:jerry:greg
>cat fileY
jerry:jerry@foo.com
greg:grep@foo.com
>./dtscript.ksh
You are oncall today 10/04/07

ZGREP(1) BSD General Commands Manual ZGREP(1)
NAME
zgrep, zegrep, zfgrep -- print lines matching a pattern in gzip-compressed files
SYNOPSIS
zgrep [grep-flags] [--] pattern [files ...]
zegrep [grep-flags] [--] pattern [file ...]
zfgrep [grep-flags] [--] pattern [file ...]
DESCRIPTION
zgrep runs grep(1) on files or stdin, if no files argument is given, after decompressing them with zcat(1).
The grep-flags and pattern arguments are passed on to grep(1). If an -e flag is found in the grep-flags, zgrep will not look for a pattern
argument.
zegrep calls egrep(1), while zfgrep calls fgrep(1).
EXIT STATUS
In case of missing arguments or missing pattern, 1 will be returned, otherwise 0.
SEE ALSO
egrep(1), fgrep(1), grep(1), gzip(1), zcat(1)
