Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting How to check a file exist and do a copy of other files Post 302152456 by Smiling Dragon on Wednesday 19th of December 2007 10:48:10 PM

Remember to use 'CODE' tags Smilie

You need a 'then' clause in your if statement and to end it with a 'fi'

I don't see a reason to use paste,
just use awk to grab the first column:
Code:
awk '{ print $1,"0" }' < B.txt > A.txt
