In these cases I normally use the sed command in a script, but I can't seem to get sed to remove the backquotes. I tried several... (6 Replies)

bold, using the matching NM_ in $12 or $9 in file2

Hi,
So awk is driving me crazy on this one. I have searched everywhere and read man, docs and every related post Google can find and still no luck.

smd-client
smd-client(1) Sync Mail Dir (smd) documentation smd-client(1)NAME
smd-client - receives diffs and performs actions
SYNOPSIS
smd-client [-v|--verbose] [-d|--dry-run] [-t|--translator]
[-l|--local-sync] [--rename-only]
[--override-db dbf] endpoint mailboxes
DESCRIPTION
smd-client needs to know a name (endpoint) for the client (that must not be used by others) and a list of mailboxes (directories).
smd-client waits on stdin a mail dir diff. It attempts to execute these actions, eventually asking data printing commands on stdout and
expecting the data on stdin.
OPTIONS -t --translator
Specify a program to translate remote mailbox names to local ones. Note that the translator 'cat' (the identity program) is opti-
mized away
-l --local-sync
Local synchronization, no changes is made to the db-file since smd-server takes care of it
--rename-only
Do not synchronize the mailboxes but generate the script '~/smd-rename.sh' to uniform the files names in the mailbox
--override-db dbf
Use dbf as the db-file
-v --verbose
Increase program verbosity (printed on stderr)
-d --dry-run
Do not perform any action for real
NOTES
smd-client is a low level utility. You should use higher level tools like smd-pull(1) and smd-push(1)SEE ALSO mddiff(1), smd-server(1), smd-pull(1), smd-push(1)AUTHOR
