Gathering data from complex/large dataspreads .txt format
Hi, I'm working on gathering information stored in .txt files. The format of the data within the .txt files is shown in the picture uploaded with this post. Sections like the one pictured are repeated (with different data, same format) many times within each .txt file but each section is of data from different instances.
I have very little experience with coding/unix etc.
I am using terminal with Mac OS X.
I need to use a program because the amount of data I have to comb through makes brute force copy and pasting impractical.
Within each instance i need to find and extract the time, location, the data listed in the lines marked MOT, HNR, IBM, ABR, MWM, OFK, ALO, SOW, AND SBM. Then i need to transfer that information into a new .txt file.
I'm not sure where to start basically.
Hopefully i provided enough information to get a start but if you need more please ask.
