Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers Output from who command - quick riddle Post 302494255 by Corona688 on Sunday 6th of February 2011 01:25:46 PM

This is why I wanted to know the output of who. It's much harder to fix this after you process it than to get it right in the first place! But since you just plain won't, this hack might do:
Code:
who | grep s132a | cut -d' ' -f1,3,11,13,14 | while read A B C D
do
        echo -e "${A}\t${B}\t${C}\t${D}"
done

---------- Post updated at 12:25 PM ---------- Previous update was at 12:24 PM ----------

This might be a simpler way:

Code:
who | grep s132a | cut -d' ' -f1,3,11,13,14 --output-delimiter='\t'

which if it works, the parameter --output-delimiter='\t' could replace
Code:
cut ... | tr ' ' '\t'

in most places.
