@Truk451: Thanks man, amazing script. I haven't heard of Perl but i'll definitely look in to it, looks like it might me more powerful than bash. Would you recommend me to stop learning bash and start trying to learn Perl instead?

I did find two problems though (I'm sorry if i didnt explain myself well enough).

The first one is that i have to remove the entire lines containing "4/1,3," and 4/10," as those classes are for another group (my classes are 4/2,4, and 4/1,2,3,4,)) (thats what i tried to do in my step 3). i tried running your script after removing them from the document, but that just messed it up.


The second: since the lesson starts and ends at the same date they need to be the same.
Code:
03.10.11,08.10.11, 8:00,10:15,seminar   ,MCK16 Reproduct/Develop  ,821 Gynaecology

will create an entry that starts at 08:00 on the 03.10.11 and end on 10:15 on the 08.10.11, thats a loong class even for medical school Smilie . However its easy for me to solve by importing the csv to a spreadsheet and just delete the column with the 2. date and insert a duplicate of the 1. date. Would be interesting to see the code though if you have time.

Anyways, thank you very much.

Best regards.
