I am trying to match a pattern exactly in a shell script. I have tried two methods
awk '/\<mpath${CURR_MP}\>/{print $1 $2}' multipath
perl -ne '/\bmpath${CURR_MP}\b/ and print' /var/tmp/multipath
Both these methods require that I use the escape character. I am guessing that is why... (8 Replies)

/dev/sdb1 /mnt/backup xfs rw,relatime,attr2,noquota 0 0
I need to match the string in the second column exactly so that only one result is returned, e.g.

Hello,
My requirement is to iterate over all the lines of a file and compare them with a word and perform some operations if exact match is found.
For the snippet below, it works even if contents of line include "diff" and "diff:". I want it to work only if it is exactly "diff" and is not... (2 Replies)

Hi,
I'm trying to match the front and back of a sequence. It works when there is an exact match (obviously), but I need the regex to be more flexible. When we get strings of nucleotides sometimes their prefixes and suffixes aren't exact matches. Sometimes there will be an extra letter and... (2 Replies)
Hi experts,
I have a file with regexes which is used for automatic searches on several files (40+ GB).
To do some postprocessing with the grep result I need the matching line as well as the match itself.
I know that the latter could be achieved with grep's -o option. But I'm not aware of a... (2 Replies)
Hi All,
We have this regex:\\*.*?(.600).*?.(LISTEN|ESTABLISHED)
OS = Solaris 10
The purpose of this regex is to match the ports in output of "netstat -an" and report if any ports between 6000-6009 are getting used. The only problem is if I have something like this (sample output as... (6 Replies)
I am trying to create a cronjob that will run on startup that will look at a list.txt file to see if there is a later version of a database using database.txt as the source. The matching lines are written to output.
$1 in database.txt will be in list.txt as a partial match. $2 of database.txt... (2 Replies)

paste
PASTE(1) BSD General Commands Manual PASTE(1)NAME
paste -- merge corresponding or subsequent lines of files
SYNOPSIS
paste [-s] [-d list] file ...
DESCRIPTION
The paste utility concatenates the corresponding lines of the given input files, replacing all but the last file's newline characters with a
single tab character, and writes the resulting lines to standard output. If end-of-file is reached on an input file while other input files
still contain data, the file is treated as if it were an endless source of empty lines.
The options are as follows:
-d list Use one or more of the provided characters to replace the newline characters instead of the default tab. The characters in list
are used circularly, i.e., when list is exhausted the first character from list is reused. This continues until a line from the
last input file (in default operation) or the last line in each file (using the -s option) is displayed, at which time paste
begins selecting characters from the beginning of list again.
The following special characters can also be used in list:
newline character
tab character
\ backslash character
Empty string (not a null character).
Any other character preceded by a backslash is equivalent to the character itself.
-s Concatenate all of the lines of each separate input file in command line order. The newline character of every line except the
last line in each input file is replaced with the tab character, unless otherwise specified by the -d option.
If '-' is specified for one or more of the input files, the standard input is used; standard input is read one line at a time, circularly,
for each instance of '-'.
EXIT STATUS
The paste utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
EXAMPLES
List the files in the current directory in three columns:
ls | paste - - -
Combine pairs of lines from a file into single lines:
paste -s -d '
' myfile
Number the lines in a file, similar to nl(1):
sed = myfile | paste -s -d '
' - -
Create a colon-separated list of directories named bin, suitable for use in the PATH environment variable:
find / -name bin -type d | paste -s -d : -
SEE ALSO cut(1), lam(1)STANDARDS
The paste utility is expected to be IEEE Std 1003.2 (``POSIX.2'') compatible.
HISTORY
A paste command appeared in Version 32V AT&T UNIX.
