Hello rossi,

A few questions to clarity thing first:-
  • Is there anything else in the file apart from these two lines?
  • Can I just confirm that you want to suffix the file name with the first field of the second line using a pipe | as the delimeter?
  • Are there many, many files?
  • What have you tried so far?
  • What errors have you got?
  • What shell are you using?
  • What OS and version do you have running?
  • What tools are you most comfortable with?
  • Does the code from Scrutinizer solve it?

Sorry it's so many, but i don't want anyone to shoot off on the wrong track.


Kind regards,
Robin

NAME
x2sys_merge - Merge an updated COEs tables SYNOPSIS
x2sys_merge -Amain_COElist.d -Mnew_COElist.d DESCRIPTION
x2sys_merge will read two crossovers data base and output the contents of the main one updated with the COEs in the second one. The second file should only contain updated COEs relatively to the first one. That is, it MUST NOT contain any new two tracks intersections (This point is NOT checked in the code). This program is useful when, for any good reason like file editing NAV correction or whatever, one had to recompute only the COEs between the edited files and the rest of the database. -A Specify the file main_COElist.d with the main crossover error data base. -M Specify the file new_COElist.d with the newly computed crossover error data base. OPTIONS
No space between the option flag and the associated arguments. EXAMPLES To update the main COE_data.txt with the new COEs estimations saved in the smaller COE_fresh.txt, try x2sys_merge -ACOE_data.txt -MCOE_fresh.txt > COE_updated.txt SEE ALSO
x2sys_binlist(1), x2sys_cross(1), x2sys_datalist(1), x2sys_get(1), x2sys_init(1), x2sys_list(1), x2sys_put(1), x2sys_report(1) GMT 4.5.7 15 Jul 2011 X2SYS_MERGE(1gmt)
