Hi
You code is correct but my requirement is little bit differ this
read I; awk -F")" -v i=$I '$1 == i {print $2}' temp.txt3
Requirment
after pressing repo. number it store the value in temp.txt3 file in below format so sometime it stores only SBS and sometime store DIB/H2H but if it store
DIB/H2H then I need H2H and if store SBS then I need SBS.
My flie is temp.txt3 after pressing the repo. number which stores the value
cat temp.txt3 (show the content of temp.txt3)
DIB/H2H
Now I want only H2H
my code of the script
repocodebase()
{
echo -en "Enter the REPO number(1,2...):"
read usrInput
count=0
cat /home/e030809/temp.txt2|while read line; do count=`echo $count + 1 | bc`; echo " $count)$line "; done | grep -w $usrInput>/home/e030809/temp.txt3
a=`cat /home/e030809/temp.txt3|sed 's/^[ \t]*//;s/[ \t]*$//'|cut -d ")" -f2`
#a=`cat /home/e030809/temp.txt6|sed 's/[ \t]*$//'|cut -d ")" -f2`
echo $a
cat temp.txt3 store sometime SBS and sometime store DBD/H2H and nothing else
so we cann't use field separator and we don't use to put here number 28 or 29
output of the file is
cat temp.txt3
DBD/H2H
neither 28)DBD/H2H
Thanks

mktemp
MKTEMP(1) BSD General Commands Manual MKTEMP(1)
NAME
mktemp -- make temporary file name (unique)
SYNOPSIS
mktemp [-d] [-q] [-u] template
DESCRIPTION
The mktemp utility takes the given file name template and overwrites a portion of it to create a file name. This file name is unique and
suitable for use by the application. The template may be any file name with at least 6 of 'Xs' appended to it, for example /tmp/temp.XXXXXX.
The trailing 'Xs' are replaced with the current process number and/or a unique letter combination. The number of unique file names mktemp
can return depends on the number of 'Xs' provided; six 'Xs' will result in mktemp testing roughly 26 ** 6 combinations.
If mktemp can successfully generate a unique file name, the file is created with mode 0600 (unless the -u flag is given) and the filename is
printed to standard output.
OPTIONS
The available options are as follows:
-d Make a directory instead of a file.
-q Fail silently if an error occurs. This is useful if a script does not want error output to go to standard error.
-u Operate in ``unsafe'' mode. The temp file will be unlinked before mktemp exits. This is slightly better than mktemp(3) but still
introduces a race condition. Use of this option is not encouraged.
RETURN VALUES
The mktemp utility exits with a value of 0 on success, and 1 on failure.
EXAMPLES
The following sh(1) fragment illustrates a simple use of mktemp where the script should quit if it cannot get a safe temporary file.
TMPFILE=`mktemp /tmp/$0.XXXXXX` || exit 1
echo "program output" >> $TMPFILE
In this case, we want the script to catch the error itself.
TMPFILE=`mktemp -q /tmp/$0.XXXXXX`
if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
echo "$0: Can't create temp file, exiting..."
exit 1
fi
Note that one can also check to see that $TMPFILE is zero length instead of checking $?. This would allow the check to be done later one in
the script (since $? would get clobbered by the next shell command).
