Lucas- Thank you for the response , i am sorry for the delay in responding
your solution pefectly works
echo $a|awk '{for(i=1;i<=NF;i++){if($i~/[*?]/){printf "%s",$i;exit}}}' FS=','
but when i am using this in my ANT arguments it is throwing an error if we give operator < , XML is treating it as a closing tag and throwing parsing error , i tried my best to convernt it into CDATA but still it throws build error , Is there any other way/logic you would suggest me without using the '<' operator in i<=NF.

I wonder if there's a way to cut characters out of a string and keep only
the last 2 by using sed.
For example if there's the todays' date:
2012-05-06
and we only want to keep the last 2 characters which are the day.
Is there a quick way to do it with sed? (2 Replies)
