Is this a homework assignment?
It is awfully hard to tell from your sample data what the expected input file format is.
- Are there always exactly 5 lines in your input file?
- Are there always two elements to be placed in the "PK=" list in the output?
- Why is there a "," after the "PK=" in the output before "COL1"?
- You say: "there are two tab spaces before COL1 and COL2". What is a "tab space"? There aren't any tabs in your sample data. Is a "tab space" 11.5 space characters???
- Could "COL1" appear on the same line as the "("?
- Could "COL1,COL2" appear on the same line?
- Could there be a comma or a semicolon after "COL2" in your input file?
- What OS and shell are you using?
