the file is like this
Code:
# Nmap 5.51 scan initiated Wed Aug 22 18:42:27 2012 as: nmap -sS -P0 -O -sV -oN log -oX log.xml -oG log.grep -append-output 74.82.42.42
Host: 74.82.42.42 (ordns.he.net)        Status: Up
Host: 74.82.42.42 (ordns.he.net)        Ports: 22/open/tcp//tcpwrapped///, 53/open/tcp//domain//PowerDNS 3.3/, 179/open/tcp//tcpwrapped///      Ignored State: closed (997)       Seq Index: 196
# Nmap done at Wed Aug 22 18:42:40 2012 -- 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 13.12 seconds
# Nmap 5.51 scan initiated Wed Aug 22 18:42:40 2012 as: nmap -sS -P0 -O -sV -oN log -oX log.xml -oG log.grep -append-output 72.52.104.74
Host: 72.52.104.74 (tserv1.fmt2.he.net) Status: Up
Host: 72.52.104.74 (tserv1.fmt2.he.net) Ports: 22/open/tcp//tcpwrapped///, 53/open/tcp//domain//PowerDNS 3.3/, 179/open/tcp//tcpwrapped///      Ignored State: closed (997)     Seq Index: 207  IP ID Seq: All zeros
# Nmap done at Wed Aug 22 18:43:00 2012 -- 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 19.48 seconds
.................
.................


so there are many lines like the 3rd and the 7th lines
there are many fields in these lines, separated by '\t'
and I want to extract the fields and put them into different log files.

for example, in hosts.log, I will have
Code:
22/open/tcp//tcpwrapped///
53/open/tcp//domain//PowerDNS 3.3/
179/open/tcp//tcpwrapped/// 
 22/open/tcp//tcpwrapped///
53/open/tcp//domain//PowerDNS 3.3/
179/open/tcp//tcpwrapped///
....
....

hosts.log is special coz there are sub-fields separated by ','

in Seq_Index.log, I will have
Code:
196
207
...
...

in ip_id.log,I will have
Code:
All Zeros
...
...

NAME

       tcp-environ - TCP-related environment variables

DESCRIPTION

       The  following environment variables describe a TCP connection.	They are set up by tcp-env, tcpclient, and tcpserver.  Note that TCPLOCAL-
       HOST, TCPREMOTEHOST, and TCPREMOTEINFO can contain arbitrary characters.

       PROTO
	    The string TCP.

       TCPLOCALHOST
	    The domain name of the local host, with uppercase letters converted to lowercase.  If there is no currently available domain name  for
	    the local IP address, TCPLOCALHOST is not set.

       TCPLOCALIP
	    The IP address of the local host, in dotted-decimal form.

       TCPLOCALPORT
	    The local TCP port number, in decimal.

       TCPREMOTEHOST
	    The domain name of the remote host, with uppercase letters converted to lowercase.	If there is no currently available domain name for
	    the remote IP address, TCPREMOTEHOST is not set.

       TCPREMOTEINFO
	    A connection-specific string, perhaps a username, supplied by the remote host via 931/1413/IDENT/TAP.  If the remote host did not sup-
	    ply connection information, TCPREMOTEINFO is not set.

       TCPREMOTEIP
	    The IP address of the remote host.

       TCPREMOTEPORT
	    The remote TCP port number.
