Hi, I want to read lines from a file, and I'm using two methods
1 use
2 use
however, in both of them, I notice that the tab between fields are automatically converted to space
because I want to use awk over the lines, I hope the 'tab' can be kept
are there any ways? thanks
I'm reading from a file that is semi-colon delimited. One of the fields contains 2 spaces separating the first and last name (4th field in - "JOHN<space><space> DOE"):
e.g. TORONTO;ONTARIO;1 YONGE STREET;JOHN DOE;CANADA
When I read this record and either echo/print to screen or write to... (4 Replies)

Hello,
Is there a direct command to check if the delimiter in your file is a tab or a space? And how can they be converted from one to another.
Thanks,

Hi,
I have a space delimited text file but I only want to change the first space to a tab and keep the rest of the spaces intact. How do I go about doing that? Thanks! (3 Replies)

mlm
FBB::mlm(3bobcat) OFoldStream manipulator FBB::mlm(3bobcat)NAME
FBB::mlm - Manipulator modifying left margins of OFoldStream objects
SYNOPSIS
#include <bobcat/ofoldstream> or
#include <bobcat/ofoldstreambuf>
Linking option: -lbobcat
DESCRIPTION
The mlm class implements a manipulator that can be inserted into OFoldStream objects to modify the stream's left margin by a requested
amount. The request cannot result in a negative left margin value. If a negative left margin would be the arithmetic result of the request
then left margin 0 will silently be used.
Depending on the tab-setting of the OFoldStream the inserted value represents the number of blank space characters or the number of
tab-characters that will be added to the left margin.
The request will be processed at the next newline character or std::flush or std::endl manipulator that is inserted into the stream. If a
line is still empty once an mlm object and a flush manipulator are inserted into the stream then the new left margin will be effective at
the next word inserted into that line (cf., the example section below)
A bad_cast exception is thrown when the manipulator is inserted into an ostream that is not using a OFoldStreambuf buffer.
