Formatted Output - Awk

Hi

I have been reading individual lines of the file using sed and
cutting the columns that i need and using

printf '%s %-50s %6s %-6s %s\n'

I was able to achieve my things. But i am reading a 1 GB file and the processing of these steps was more and going for hours as i am reading each line.

So.. i thought of removing the whole individual columns itself and print the column output in the above printf format.

As this will not read each line and processing would be fast.

Let me know if you need more information.

Regards
Dhana

NAME
igawk - gawk with include files SYNOPSIS
igawk [ all gawk options ] -f program-file [ -- ] file ... igawk [ all gawk options ] [ -- ] program-text file ... DESCRIPTION
Igawk is a simple shell script that adds the ability to have ``include files'' to gawk(1). AWK programs for igawk are the same as for gawk, except that, in addition, you may have lines like @include getopt.awk in your program to include the file getopt.awk from either the current directory or one of the other directories in the search path. OPTIONS
See gawk(1) for a full description of the AWK language and the options that gawk supports. EXAMPLES
cat << EOF > test.awk @include getopt.awk BEGIN { while (getopt(ARGC, ARGV, "am:q") != -1) ... } EOF igawk -f test.awk SEE ALSO
