Search for multiple strings in specific position
Hi,
I need to search for some strings in specific positions in a file.
If the strings: "foo1", "foo2" or "foo3" is on position 266 or position 288 in a file i want the whole line printed.
Any idea how to do it?

Hi Folks,
I have a file with all fields defined by byte position, but any field can be empty so I cannot print lines based on a search of specific columns. I need to print all lines of this file where the string of two characters at byte position 100-101 contains the number 27. Any ideas?

Tk_GetAnchorFromObj(3) Tk Library Procedures Tk_GetAnchorFromObj(3)
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
NAME
Tk_GetAnchorFromObj, Tk_GetAnchor, Tk_NameOfAnchor - translate between strings and anchor positions
SYNOPSIS
#include <tk.h>
int
Tk_GetAnchorFromObj(interp, objPtr, anchorPtr)
int
Tk_GetAnchor(interp, string, anchorPtr)
const char *
Tk_NameOfAnchor(anchor)
ARGUMENTS
Tcl_Interp *interp (in) Interpreter to use for error reporting, or NULL.
Tcl_Obj *objPtr (in/out) String value contains name of anchor point: "n", "ne", "e", "se", "s", "sw", "w", "nw", or "center";
internal rep will be modified to cache corresponding Tk_Anchor.
const char *string (in) Same as objPtr except description of anchor point is passed as a string.
int *anchorPtr (out) Pointer to location in which to store anchor position corresponding to objPtr or string.
Tk_Anchor anchor (in) Anchor position, e.g. TCL_ANCHOR_CENTER.
_________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
Tk_GetAnchorFromObj places in *anchorPtr an anchor position (enumerated type Tk_Anchor) corresponding to objPtr's value. The result will
be one of TK_ANCHOR_N, TK_ANCHOR_NE, TK_ANCHOR_E, TK_ANCHOR_SE, TK_ANCHOR_S, TK_ANCHOR_SW, TK_ANCHOR_W, TK_ANCHOR_NW, or TK_ANCHOR_CENTER.
Anchor positions are typically used for indicating a point on an object that will be used to position the object, e.g. TK_ANCHOR_N means
position the top center point of the object at a particular place.
Under normal circumstances the return value is TCL_OK and interp is unused. If string does not contain a valid anchor position or an
abbreviation of one of these names, TCL_ERROR is returned, *anchorPtr is unmodified, and an error message is stored in interp's result if
interp is not NULL. Tk_GetAnchorFromObj caches information about the return value in objPtr, which speeds up future calls to Tk_GetAnchor-
FromObj with the same objPtr.
Tk_GetAnchor is identical to Tk_GetAnchorFromObj except that the description of the anchor is specified with a string instead of an object.
This prevents Tk_GetAnchor from caching the return value, so Tk_GetAnchor is less efficient than Tk_GetAnchorFromObj.
Tk_NameOfAnchor is the logical inverse of Tk_GetAnchor. Given an anchor position such as TK_ANCHOR_N it returns a statically-allocated
string corresponding to anchor. If anchor is not a legal anchor value, then "unknown anchor position" is returned.
