I have text file with hundreds of lines, space delimited, each line has the same amount of "columns" and the same amount of characters in each, Column 1, Column 2, and Column 3.
I need a script that will print all columns of the "current" line along with the last two columns of the next line ONLY IF the first columns are equal.
Another way of putting it...
If Column1CurrentLine equals Column1NextLine
print AllOfCurrentLine Column2NextLine Column3NextLine
So my input has 3 columns and my output would have 5 total but only 3 in some lines?
input:
Code:
A abc def
A hij klm
A nop qrs
B abc def
B hij klm
C aaa bbb
output:
Code:
A abc def hij klm
A hij klm nop qrs
A nop qrs
B abc def hij klm
B hij klm
C aaa bbb

Hi
I have a file with multiple columns. But there is something weird on column one that is attached to the name. The good thing is that its a consistent pattern so there should be a way to remove it.
So the first column looks something like this:
name_345.4ml
date_3456.4ml
year_12.4ml... (3 Replies)

column
COLUMN(1) BSD General Commands Manual COLUMN(1)NAME
column -- columnate lists
SYNOPSIS
column [-tx] [-c columns] [-s sep] [file ...]
DESCRIPTION
The column utility formats its input into multiple columns. Rows are filled before columns. Input is taken from file operands, or, by
default, from the standard input. Empty lines are ignored.
The options are as follows:
-c Output is formatted for a display columns wide.
-s Specify a set of characters to be used to delimit columns for the -t option.
-t Determine the number of columns the input contains and create a table. Columns are delimited with whitespace, by default, or with
the characters supplied using the -s option. Useful for pretty-printing displays.
-x Fill columns before filling rows.
Column exits 0 on success, >0 if an error occurred.
ENVIRONMENT
COLUMNS The environment variable COLUMNS is used to determine the size of the screen if no other information is available.
EXAMPLES
(printf "PERM LINKS OWNER GROUP SIZE MONTH DAY HH:MM/YEAR NAME
"
; ls -l | sed 1d) | column -t

The column command appeared in 4.3BSD-Reno.
