file1.txt
No Match chr1 35696 36106 DTE3504500000004
PXL-A0000005 chr1 69066 69311 DTE3504500000005
is what is in combine.txt, you really meant that the file you referred to as combine.txt is really named file1.txt (rather than the first line of combine.txt containing the line file1.txt, then maybe something like:
Code:
awk -F'\t' '
NR == FNR {
r[$5] = $1
next
}
FNR > 2 && m <= 0 && $5 in r {
p = $5
m = 2
}
m-- > 0 {
if(r[p] == "No Match")
next
gsub(p, r[p])
}
1' file1.txt output.txt > output.$$ && cp output.$$ output.txt && rm -f output.$$
will do what you want.
If you want to try this on a Solaris/SunOS system, change awk to /usr/xpg4/bin/awk.
Holy shit.
