Awk problem: How to express the single quote(') by using awk print function
Actually I got a list of file end with *.txt
I want to use the same command apply to all the *.txt
Thus I try to find out the fastest way to write those same command in a script and then want to let them run automatics.
For example:
I got the file below:
file1.txt
file2.txt
file3.txt
file4.txt
I want all the *.txt do the same command like:
awk '{print $1"\t"}'
My desired output is got a script named as txt.sh look like this:
awk '{print $1"\t"}' file1.txt
awk '{print $1"\t"}' file2.txt
awk '{print $1"\t"}' file3.txt
awk '{print $1"\t"}' file4.txt
The way I do now is :
ls *.txt | awk '{print "awk \"{$_\"\\t\"}\"",$1}'
And the output I get is like this:
awk "{print $1"\t"}" file1.txt
awk "{print $1"\t"}" file2.txt
awk "{print $1"\t"}" file3.txt
awk "{print $1"\t"}" file4.txt
If I type something like:
ls *.txt | awk '{print "awk \'{$_\"\\t\"}\'",$1}'
It is not worked at all.
Thus I'm asking whether you know the way to express the single quote by awk print to get my desired output result
thanks again for all of your suggestion

X2SYS_MERGE(1gmt) Generic Mapping Tools X2SYS_MERGE(1gmt) NAME
x2sys_merge - Merge an updated COEs tables SYNOPSIS
x2sys_merge -Amain_COElist.d -Mnew_COElist.d DESCRIPTION
x2sys_merge will read two crossovers data base and output the contents of the main one updated with the COEs in the second one. The second file should only contain updated COEs relatively to the first one. That is, it MUST NOT contain any new two tracks intersections (This point is NOT checked in the code). This program is useful when, for any good reason like file editing NAV correction or whatever, one had to recompute only the COEs between the edited files and the rest of the database. -A Specify the file main_COElist.d with the main crossover error data base. -M Specify the file new_COElist.d with the newly computed crossover error data base. OPTIONS
No space between the option flag and the associated arguments. EXAMPLES To update the main COE_data.txt with the new COEs estimations saved in the smaller COE_fresh.txt, try x2sys_merge -ACOE_data.txt -MCOE_fresh.txt > COE_updated.txt SEE ALSO
