This is my file. Two fields separated by space
The following numeric sort, based on the first field's 6th character works as expected.
But the following attempt to sort the lines based on the second field's numeric character doesn't seem to work.
--- In the below example for "-k 2.6" , 2 denotes second field, 6 denotes the character based on which sort should happen (I have a numeric sort here)

Hopefully the awk is a start but I... (2 Replies)

So awk is driving me crazy on this one. I have searched everywhere and read man, docs and every related post Google can find and still no luck.
