I'm trying to figure out how to display a certain line in a text file. I keep getting references to Tail and Head, and I know how these work, but i'm lost on how to find say the third out of the five lines and display only that.
I thought maybe grep could help, but that doesn't seem likely.

I am trying to display a number with commas
printf "%d\n" 323232
printf "%d\n" 1234567
I want the output to be:
323,232
1,234,567
I tried to change %d to other formats and could find the solution.
any idea? (7 Replies)

Howdy.
I know this is most likely possible using sed or awk or grep, most likely a combination of them together, but how would one go about running a grep like command on a file where you only try to match your pattern to the second field in a line, space delimited?
Example:

I have a file with a list of config files numbered on the lefthand side 1-300. I need to have bash read each lines number and assign it to a variable so it can be chosen by the user called by the script later.
Ex. 1 some data
2 something else
3 more stuff
which number do you... (1 Reply)
1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data:

Hi all - I'm completely stumped by a script I'm working on...
The short version is I have a file called 'lookup' and in it are hundreds of names (first and last). I have a script that basically allows the user to enter a name, and what I need to have happen is something like this:

platform::shell
platform::shell(3tcl) Tcl Bundled Packages platform::shell(3tcl)__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________NAME
platform::shell - System identification support code and utilities
SYNOPSIS
package require platform::shell ?1.1.4?
platform::shell::generic shell
platform::shell::identify shell
platform::shell::platform shell
_________________________________________________________________DESCRIPTION
The platform::shell package provides several utility commands useful for the identification of the architecture of a specific Tcl shell.
This package allows the identification of the architecture of a specific Tcl shell different from the shell running the package. The only
requirement is that the other shell (identified by its path), is actually executable on the current machine.
While for most platform this means that the architecture of the interrogated shell is identical to the architecture of the running shell
this is not generally true. A counter example are all platforms which have 32 and 64 bit variants and where a 64bit system is able to run
32bit code. For these running and interrogated shell may have different 32/64 bit settings and thus different identifiers.
For applications like a code repository it is important to identify the architecture of the shell which will actually run the installed
packages, versus the architecture of the shell running the repository software.
COMMANDS
platform::shell::identify shell
This command does the same identification as platform::identify, for the specified Tcl shell, in contrast to the running shell.
platform::shell::generic shell
This command does the same identification as platform::generic, for the specified Tcl shell, in contrast to the running shell.
platform::shell::platform shell
This command returns the contents of tcl_platform(platform) for the specified Tcl shell.
KEYWORDS
operating system, cpu architecture, platform, architecture
