Information:
If a line has more than 19 chars, it uses a "\" as 20th char and proceeds in next line.
This is present as you see.
Task:
I changed lines, therefore they do no longer fit into the 20 chars.
E.g. i add a ",". I want to put it into the next line and correct here the 20 chars rule and this for all following lines. Until it's no longer needed.
Thanks a lot!!!

Tried things in style of: One solution: Use two vars saving the lines... removing additional , saving this string and writing it in front of the next line holding var. Than use again previous var and read this. Until line has <19 char.
Shouldn't be that hard... but i'm not familiar with the syntax

Reason: reformated and changed topic | added "\" into code tags to ensure understanding of the issue

Hello,
I have a logfile which is in this format:
1211667249500#3265
1211667266687#2875
1211667270781#1828
Is there a way to read the logfile line by line every time I execute the code and put the two numbers in the line in two separate variables?
Something like:

I know this should be simple, but I've been manning sed awk grep and find and am stupidly stumped :(
I'm trying to use sed (or awk, find, etc) to find 4 characters on the second line of a file.txt 44-47 characters in. I can find lots of sed things for lines, but not characters. (4 Replies)
Hi I'm new to sed, and need to add characters into a specific location of a file, the fileds are tab seperated.
text <tab> <tab> text <tab> text EOL
I need to add more characters to the line to look like this:

Any ideas? (2 Replies)

Hi folks,
I am very new to awk. I have what is probably a very simple question. I'm trying to get the max value of column 1, but also print column 2. My data looks like this:
0.044|2000-02-03 14:00:00
5.23|2000-02-03 05:45:00
5.26|2000-02-03 11:15:00

So in this case... (2 Replies)

set_color
set_color(1) fish set_color(1)NAME
set_color - set_color - set the terminal color
set_color - set the terminal color
Synopsis
set_color [-v --version] [-h --help] [-b --background COLOR] [COLOR]
Description
Change the foreground and/or background color of the terminal. COLOR is one of black, red, green, brown, yellow, blue, magenta, purple,
cyan, white and normal.
o -b, --background Set the background color
o -c, --print-colors Prints a list of all valid color names
o -h, --help Display help message and exit
o -o, --bold Set bold or extra bright mode
o -u, --underline Set underlined mode
o -v, --version Display version and exit
Calling set_color normal will set the terminal color to whatever is the default color of the terminal.
Some terminals use the --bold escape sequence to switch to a brighter color set. On such terminals, set_color white will result in a grey
font color, while set_color --bold white will result in a white font color.
Not all terminal emulators support all these features. This is not a bug in set_color but a missing feature in the terminal emulator.
set_color uses the terminfo database to look up how to change terminal colors on whatever terminal is in use. Some systems have old and
incomplete terminfo databases, and may lack color information for terminals that support it. Download and install the latest version of
ncurses and recompile fish against it in order to fix this issue.
