How to cut first line only from a text near a specific column without cutting a word
First I have to say thank you to this community and this forum. You helped me very much builing several useful scripts.
Now, I can't get a solution the following problem, I'm stuck somehow. Maybe someone has an idea.
In short, I dump a site via lynx and pipe the output in a file. I need to cut - the first line only -near the 15th column, by piping aswell.
The Information I need is always in this area 1 - 15 col.
A word or chars which are together should not be cut at this pont. So the cut should take place after the next blank (space).
example
123456789012345678901234567890 <-- column
balah bb 213112312 12321 <-- random information
balah bb 213112312 <-the result should be this
I tried several approaches with fold and awk and cut, but the results were not ok.
the information below the first line must stay untouched and sould not be wrapped aswell. Thats the problem I have.
