Full Discussion: printing in certain column based on some result
Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting printing in certain column based on some result Post 302266887 by Franklin52 on Thursday 11th of December 2008 09:18:26 AM

Code:
awk '
BEGIN { printf "Enter your name adress phonenum sex: "
getline name < "-"
s=substr(name,1,match(name," ")-1)
}
$0==s{print name;next}
{print}' file

The code was just an example, left for you to adjust it for your own taste and not as a solution but here we go:


Code:
BEGIN { printf "Enter your name adress phonenum sex: "
getline name < "-"
s=substr(name,1,match(name," ")-1)
}

Ask for a name etc. and substract the name (first word till the first space).

Code:
$0==s{print name;next}

If we match the name print the name , adress etc.

Code:
{print}'

This prints the other lines.

Hope this helps.

Regard

platform::shell

platform::shell(n)					       Tcl Bundled Packages						platform::shell(n)

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

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.
