Hello,
this thread is more about scripting style than a specific issue.
I've to grep from a output some lines and from them obtain a specific entry delimited by < and >.
This is my way :
Code:
1) grep -i user list | awk '{FS="<";print $NF}' | sed -e 's/>//g'
2) grep -i user list | cut -d"," -f 3 | cut -d '<' -f 2 | sed -e 's/>//g'
Now, I want to know if there is a best way (sure there is ) to do it.
Moreover, it is possible to put all instruction on a awk cmd ?
br/gb
--------------------------------
UPDATE -
A third way solution :
Code:
grep -i user list | awk -F"[<,>]" '/>/{print $(NF-1)}'
It is fine... but not complete, cause NF is a blanck char. How to del this char from awk test ?

zgrep
ZGREP(1) BSD General Commands Manual ZGREP(1)NAME
zgrep, zegrep, zfgrep -- print lines matching a pattern in gzip-compressed files
SYNOPSIS
zgrep [grep-flags] [--] pattern [files ...]
zegrep [grep-flags] [--] pattern [file ...]
zfgrep [grep-flags] [--] pattern [file ...]
DESCRIPTION
zgrep runs grep(1) on files or stdin, if no files argument is given, after decompressing them with zcat(1).
The grep-flags and pattern arguments are passed on to grep(1). If an -e flag is found in the grep-flags, zgrep will not look for a pattern
argument.
zegrep calls egrep(1), while zfgrep calls fgrep(1).
EXIT STATUS
In case of missing arguments or missing pattern, 1 will be returned, otherwise 0.
