awk question: How to print condition of NR & NF together.
Experts:

Code:
LINE1 :This is line one The FIRST line of the file.
LINE2 :This is line two
LINE3 :This is line three with 8 fileds
LINE4 :This is line four
LINE5 :This is line five
LINE6 :This is line six with 8 fileds

I want to delete line 1, and then process the file and want to print lines with field not equal to 5.


- I dont want to use sed or other tool for deleting first line.

I am trying:

Code:
awk 'NR !=1 && NF~5{print $0}'

but not working.


The output should be:
Code:
LINE3 :This is line three with 8 fileds
LINE6 :This is line six with 8 fileds


Please advise,

viewperl

VIEWPERL(1)							   User Commands						       VIEWPERL(1)

NAME

       viewperl - quickly view syntax highlighted Perl code

SYNOPSIS

       viewperl [OPTION]... FILE...

DESCRIPTION

       View a Perl source code file, syntax highlighted.

       -c, --code=CODE
	      view CODE, syntax highlighted

       -l, --lines
	      display line numbers

       -L, --no-lines
	      supress display of line numbers (default)

       -m, --module=FILE
	      consider FILE the name of a module, not a file name

       -n, --name
	      display the name of each file (default)

       -N, --no-name
	      supress display of file names (implied by --no-reset)

       -p, --pod
	      display inline POD documentation (default)

       -P, --no-pod
	      hide POD documentation (line numbers still increment)

       -r, --reset
	      reset formatting and line numbers each file (default)

       -R, --no-reset
	      supress resetting of formatting and line numbers

       -T, --no-tabs
	      supress translating of tabs into spaces

       --help display this help and exit

       Note that module names should be given as they would appear after a Perl `use' or `require' statement.  `Getopt::Long', for example.

       Each string given using -c is considered a different file, so line number and formatting resets will apply.
