Thx Jim, anyway we can use the path filter as a variable?

When I use:
Code:
awk '/^:699/ { print $0, "$FILTER"; next} {print $0 } ' test_queue.txt > tmp.out

I get the file generated but the word $FILTER appends at the end. Close but I need that to be able to take a variable if possible. And I don't need a space before appending if possible. Thx for your help, I think you're close.
