Replacing all but the first and last double quote in a line with a single quote with awk
From:
Is there an easy syntax I'm overlooking? There will always be an odd number of quotes (0,2,4,6,etc). If present the first quote will follow a comma and if present the final quote will precede a LF.
Prior to this, I have replaced any LF (but not CR+LF) with |, than replaced any CR+LF with LF and replaced any , in the rightmst field with ; (by using a loop to look for more csv columns and OFS=;). I was not aware of the "" mean " thing in the .csv standard however.

Hi,
I've been trying to write a regex to use in egrep (in a shell script) that'll fetch the names of all the files that match a particular pattern. I expect to match the following line in a file:
Name = "abc"
The regex I'm using to match the same is:

atf-report
ATF-REPORT(1) BSD General Commands Manual ATF-REPORT(1)NAME
atf-report -- transforms the output of atf-run to different formats
SYNOPSIS
atf-report [-o fmt1:path1 [.. -o fmtN:pathN]]
atf-report -h
DESCRIPTION
atf-report reads the output of atf-run and transforms it to different formats. Some of these are user-friendly and others are machine-
parseable, which opens a wide range of possibilities to analyze the results of a test suite's execution. See Output formats below for more
details on which these formats are.
In the first synopsis form, atf-report reads the output of atf-run through its standard input and, if no -o options are given, prints a user-
friendly report on its standard output using the 'ticker' format. If -o options are provided (more than one are allowed), they specify the
complete list of reports to generate. They are all generated simultaneously, and for obvious reasons, two reports cannot be written to the
same file. Note that the default output is suppressed when -o is provided.
In the second synopsis form, atf-report will print information about all supported options and their purpose.
The following options are available:
-h Shows a short summary of all available options and their purpose.
-o fmt:path Adds a new output format. fmt is one of the formats described later on in Output formats. path specifies where the report
will be written to. Depending on the chosen format, this may refer to a single file or to a directory. For those formats
that write to a single file, specifying a '-' as the path will redirect the report to the standard output.
Output formats
The following output formats are allowed:
csv A machine-parseable Comma-Separated Values (CSV) file. This file contains the results for all test cases and test programs. Test
cases are logged using the following syntax:
tc, duration, test-program, test-case, result[, reason]
The 'result' field for test cases is always one of 'passed', 'skipped' or 'failed'. The last two are always followed by a reason.
Test programs are logged with the following syntax:
tp, duration, test-program, result[, reason]
In this case, the 'result' can be one of: 'passed', which denotes test programs that ran without any failure; 'failed', which
refers to test programs in which one or more test cases failed; or 'bogus', which mentions those test programs that failed to exe-
cute by some reason. The reason field is only available in the last case.
The time required to execute each test case and test program is also provided. You should not rely on the order of the entries in
the resulting output.
ticker A user-friendly report that shows the progress of the test suite's execution as it operates. This type of report should always be
redirected to a virtual terminal, not a file, as it may use control sequences that will make the output unreadable in regular
files.
xml A report contained in a single XML file. Ideal for later processing with xsltproc(1) to generate nice HTML reports.
EXAMPLES
The most simple way of running a test suite is to pipe the output of atf-run through atf-report without any additional flags. This will use
the default output format, which is suitable to most users:
atf-run | atf-report
In some situations, it may be interesting to get a machine-parseable file aside from the standard report. This can be done as follows:
atf-run | atf-report -o csv:testsuite.csv -o ticker:-
Or if the standard report is not desired, thus achieving completely silent operation: atf-run | atf-report -o csv:testsuite.csv
