MySQL search a word and print specific string using awk
Hi Franklin,
i apologize for the same.

i tried little more with awk and came almost closer (i guess)

Code:
#!/bin/bash
awk 'BEGIN {
string="name=\"abc/dir1/kernel\"";
    search="\"";
    n=split(string,array,search);
 for (x=1;x<=n;x++) {
    printf("Word[%d]=%s",x,array[x]);
#  printf("%s",array[2]);
    }
    exit;
}'

Here i get the expected output: Word[1]=name=Word[2]=abc/dir1/kernel
word[2] is what i wanted .

From below mentioned code,Problem i have is $abc variable has name="abc/dir1/kernel" so i couldnt split it similar to above mentioned code.I appreciate all your ideas / help.

Code:
for i in ${REMOVE_DIRS}
do    
    if [ -d "${i}.git" ]; then
    echo "Remove ${i}.git"
    rm -rf ${i}.git
    else
    echo "directory ${i}.git does not exist"
    grep "${i}" input.xml >> out.txt
    abc=`awk ' "${i}" { print $2 } ' out.txt`
    echo $abc
    fi

done
