awk {print $NF} output??
Hi,
I am trying to debug an old script and have found the problem lies within this function:
isIdoc() { # validate the file type
fileType=`file $1 | awk '{print $NF}'`
[ $fileType = "IDOC" ] && echo 0 || echo 1
}
My question is, how can I determine what is in the variable $fileType ? The program is failing only randomly, but I cannot modify the script (yet), so I need to know what value is being tested to "IDOC"... i'm not so sure what data is coming out of awk '{print $NF}'.
Thanks for any help...

IGAWK(1) Utility Commands IGAWK(1)
NAME
igawk - gawk with include files
SYNOPSIS
igawk [ all gawk options ] -f program-file [ -- ] file ...
igawk [ all gawk options ] [ -- ] program-text file ...
DESCRIPTION
Igawk is a simple shell script that adds the ability to have ``include files'' to gawk(1).
AWK programs for igawk are the same as for gawk, except that, in addition, you may have lines like
@include getopt.awk
in your program to include the file getopt.awk from either the current directory or one of the other directories in the search path.
OPTIONS
See gawk(1) for a full description of the AWK language and the options that gawk supports.
EXAMPLES
cat << EOF > test.awk
@include getopt.awk
BEGIN {
while (getopt(ARGC, ARGV, "am:q") != -1)
...
}
EOF
igawk -f test.awk
