Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Take a list if strings from a file and search them in a list of files and report them Post 302542987 by bartus11 on Friday 29th of July 2011 06:47:28 AM

It is storing the contents of 1.txt into array "a", then it is checking if third column on the other files is present in that array. If so, it is printing the filename along with the line that the match occurred. To redirect the output use:
Code:
awk 'NR==FNR{a[$0]=1}$3 in a{print FILENAME":"$0}' 1.txt A* > matches.txt
