awk '$0=="***"{f=++n".dat";print t > f;close(f);t="";b=0;next}{t=(!b?$0:t RS $0);if(!b) b=1}' file
And this will generate the files as you requested (1 file for the data before the 3 asterisk symbols in a line) and will not generate the fourth one as generated by some other solutions .

When I go$ echo *I get a directory listing.
When I go$ echo * *I get a directory listing, followed by a second identical directory listing.
When I go$ echo **I only get one directory listing. What happens to the second asterisk in this case? Why doesn't it expand? I haven't been able to sleep... (2 Replies)
I am attempting to find all complete words which contain an asterisk at the beginning and the end - for instance, "*Hello?*" or "*you*".
From what I've read, I would have thought that the following expression would do that just fine:

\< denoting the beginning of a word.

I need to replace occurrences of twelve asterisks "************" with the string " 0000000.00" . Note that there are two spaces in front of the first zero. How can I do this using awk or sed? (3 Replies)

gsl-histogram
GSL-HISTOGRAM(1) General Commands Manual GSL-HISTOGRAM(1)NAME
gsl-histogram - compute histogram of data on stdin
SYNOPSYS
gsl-histogram xmin xmax [n]
DESCRIPTION
gsl-histogram is a demonstration program for the GNU Scientific Library. It takes three arguments, specifying the upper and lower bounds
of the histogram and the number of bins. It then reads numbers from `stdin', one line at a time, and adds them to the histogram. When
there is no more data to read it prints out the accumulated histogram using gsl_histogram_fprintf. If n is unspecified then bins of inte-
ger width are used.
EXAMPLE
Here is an example. We generate 10000 random samples from a Cauchy distribution with a width of 30 and histogram them over the range -100
to 100, using 200 bins.
gsl-randist 0 10000 cauchy 30 | gsl-histogram -100 100 200 > histogram.dat
A plot of the resulting histogram will show the familiar shape of the Cauchy distribution with fluctuations caused by the finite sample
size.
awk '{print $1, $3 ; print $2, $3}' histogram.dat | graph -T X
