hi ravinder,
its works now.
sorry for not mentioning the OS details.
can you please explain what the below syntax does.
Note that the code RavinderSingh13 provided had an "M" not a "W" in the substitution search pattern (as you requested). But, what that awk script does is to find the first occurrence of the longest string in the 1st field ($1) on an input line ending with the two characters "_" and "W" and, if a match was found, replace that string with the contents of the awk variable X. Since X has not been initialized in this script, it defaults to an empty string. Then, whether or not a change was made, print prints the line.

Hi,
Well my title isn't very clear I think. So to understand my goal:
I have a script "test1"
#!/bin/bash
xvkbd -text blabla
with xbindkeys, I bind F5 key in order it runs my test1 script
So when I press F5, test1 runs.
I'm under Emacs/Vi and I press F5 in order to have "blabla" be... (0 Replies)

In one of the exercises it talks about the "sort" command and using it to sort column's of data etc. The "sort" command has changed a bit and... (1 Reply)

I wish to know whether Unix can access window's file in Unix's terminal?
