Ok, let me explain better this.
I have a file with some information, and I need to exctract only the INFO row, so this is the simple code:

Code:
INFO=$(grep -i INFO /info.tmp)

Now the INFO var is:
Code:
INFO="                                                INFO : ABCDEFG"

Now I need to report back this variable (WHITOUT leading spaces) into an output file with other values:

Code:
echo "$TOTAL ; $TEST ; $INFO ; $LOG"

Is there a way to do grep and remove spaces in one line?

Thank elixir,
this is now my code:
Code:
INFO=$(grep -i INFO /info.tmp)
echo "FIELD1 ; FIELD2 ${INFO##*( )} ; FIELD4"

But this is the result :-(
Code:
# ./test.sh 
 ; FIELD4FIELD2                        INFO : ABCDEFG

What happens? Smilie

Locale::Codes::LangFam(3pm)				 Perl Programmers Reference Guide			       Locale::Codes::LangFam(3pm)

NAME
Locale::Codes::LangFam - standard codes for language extension identification SYNOPSIS
use Locale::Codes::LangFam; $lext = code2langfam('apa'); # $lext gets 'Apache languages' $code = langfam2code('Apache languages'); # $code gets 'apa' @codes = all_langfam_codes(); @names = all_langfam_names(); DESCRIPTION
The "Locale::Codes::LangFam" module provides access to standard codes used for identifying language families, such as those as defined in ISO 639-5. Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default ISO 639-5 language family codes will be used. SUPPORTED CODE SETS
There are several different code sets you can use for identifying language families. A code set may be specified using either a name, or a constant that is automatically exported by this module. For example, the two are equivalent: $lext = code2langfam('apa','alpha'); $lext = code2langfam('apa',LOCALE_LANGFAM_ALPHA); The codesets currently supported are: alpha This is the set of three-letter (lowercase) codes from ISO 639-5 such as 'apa' for Apache languages. This is the default code set. ROUTINES
