I'm trying to use a series of regular expressions as variables but can't get it to behave properly.
You can see below what I'm trying to do.
Here with lowercase a-z and the same with uppercase, numbers 0-9 and again with a set of special characters, without having to type out every single character.
All variations on the below example

Hi,
I have this script:

That returns: "4526745 1234 " (this is the only line of the file "flo2".
However, I would like to get "va" to match the begining of the line, so that is "va" is different than 45 (eg. 67, 12 ...) I would not have any output. That... (3 Replies)

echo
ECHO(1) BSD General Commands Manual ECHO(1)NAME
echo -- write arguments to the standard output
SYNOPSIS
echo [-n] [string ...]
DESCRIPTION
The echo utility writes any specified operands, separated by single blank (' ') characters and followed by a newline ('
') character, to the
standard output.
The following option is available:
-n Do not print the trailing newline character. This may also be achieved by appending 'c' to the end of the string, as is done by iBCS2
compatible systems. Note that this option as well as the effect of 'c' are implementation-defined in IEEE Std 1003.1-2001
(``POSIX.1'') as amended by Cor. 1-2002. Applications aiming for maximum portability are strongly encouraged to use printf(1) to sup-
press the newline character.
Some shells may provide a builtin echo command which is similar or identical to this utility. Most notably, the builtin echo in sh(1) does
not accept the -n option. Consult the builtin(1) manual page.
EXIT STATUS
The echo utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
SEE ALSO builtin(1), csh(1), printf(1), sh(1)STANDARDS
The echo utility conforms to IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 (``POSIX.1'') as amended by Cor. 1-2002.
