I actually wanted to search "|FK|" in the file and take that position. Based on that position if any nulls are presented replace with "FK".

Now i found a way with above suggestion. I have kept file names and positions in one lookupfile and executing command something like as follows.

Code:
awk -F'|' 'NR>1 {if($6=="") $6="FK"}1' OFS='|' <file_name>

CODE is the name of a remote control key of REMOTE, as it appears in the lircd configuration file. NUM is the transmitter number of the hardware device. For the LIST DIRECTIVE, REMOTE and/or CODE can be empty: LIST "" "" - list all configured remote names LIST REMOTE "" - list all codes of REMOTE LIST REMOTE CODE - list only CODE of REMOTE The SIMULATE command only works if it has been explicitly enabled in lircd. -h --help display usage summary -v --version display version -d --device use given lircd socket [/var/run/lirc/lircd] -a --address=host[:port] connect to lircd at this address -# --count=n send command n times EXAMPLES
