please explain the above awk and sed
as well how it works
and also what is \$NF
The \ is irrelevant! It may be there to indicate that it is part of the same statement (if on two lines).
- The awk '{print $NF}' means print the last field in a space delemmited file.
- Sort -u sort the file, print one recird of each occurence (unique)
- The sed looks likes its trying to replace "." and "$" with nothing.

GREP(1) General Commands Manual GREP(1)
NAME
grep, g - search a file for a pattern
SYNOPSIS
grep [ option ... ] pattern [ file ... ]
g [ option ... ] pattern [ file ... ]
DESCRIPTION
Grep searches the input files (standard input default) for lines that match the pattern, a regular expression as defined in regexp(7) with
the addition of a newline character as an alternative (substitute for |) with lowest precedence. Normally, each line matching the pattern
is `selected', and each selected line is copied to the standard output. The options are
-c Print only a count of matching lines.
-h Do not print file name tags (headers) with output lines.
-e The following argument is taken as a pattern. This option makes it easy to specify patterns that might confuse argument parsing,
such as -n.
-i Ignore alphabetic case distinctions. The implementation folds into lower case all letters in the pattern and input before interpre-
tation. Matched lines are printed in their original form.
-l (ell) Print the names of files with selected lines; don't print the lines.
-L Print the names of files with no selected lines; the converse of -l.
-n Mark each printed line with its line number counted in its file.
-s Produce no output, but return status.
-v Reverse: print lines that do not match the pattern.
-f The pattern argument is the name of a file containing regular expressions one per line.
-b Don't buffer the output: write each output line as soon as it is discovered.
Output lines are tagged by file name when there is more than one input file. (To force this tagging, include /dev/null as a file name
argument.)
Care should be taken when using the shell metacharacters $*[^|()= and newline in pattern; it is safest to enclose the entire expression in
single quotes '...'. An expression starting with '*' will treat the rest of the expression as literal characters.
G invokes grep with -n and forces tagging of output lines by file name. If no files are listed, it searches all files matching
*.C *.b *.c *.h *.m *.cc *.java *.cgi *.pl *.py *.tex *.ms
