extract text from a file
I have been reading several posts regarding how to extract text from a file, but none of those have helped me for what I need.
This is my problem: I need to extract the text after my pattern
So my line is:
485.74 6589.5 Log likelihood: 1485.79

My pattern is 'Log likelihood:'

and I need only the rest of the line: 1485.79

I can use "grep -w 'Log likelihood:' file" but get the whole line

How can I do it if i want only the beginning of the line: "485.74 6589.5" ?

Thanks guys

lodscore

LODSCORE(1)						      General Commands Manual						       LODSCORE(1)

NAME

       lodscore - compares likelihoods at locally optimal theta

SYNOPSIS

       lodscore [options] ipedfile.dat pedfile.dat

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page  documents  briefly  the  lodscore  command.	 In fact this is a very raw intend to provide a manpage because the Debian
       GNU/Linux distribution requires each program to have a manpage.	Any enhancement would be greatly apreciated.

       lodscore is part of the fastlink software package.

       Lodscore compares -2log(likelihood) at the locally optimal theta to -2log(likelihood) at a theta that is 1/2 in every component (i.e.  each
       locus unlinked to all the rest).  In LINKAGE ILINK more likelihood function evaluations are done after the last printed iteration line, but
       these likelihood function evaluations are unnecessary (see paper2.ps from the fastlink-doc Debian package for more details).

OPTIONS

       There might be options but I did not found any information about them.  Please foreward any information about them to <tille@debian.org>

SEE ALSO

       ilink(1), linkmap(1), mlink(1), unknown(1).
