nawk - how to print variable value to a file?
Hi,
I have a shell script which uses an awk program inside. There is a variable $count inside an "if" loop which counts the no of iterations.
Now, how to print that $count value to file (or) how to export that value to a variable outside awk program. i.e, awk to shell ?
Please help.
