Could you please confirm it is not a homework, as we do have a special section/forum for homework/projects here. In case it is not homework, could you please let us know clearly what is your requirement because it is not clear in your post, please post your requirement with sample Input_file and expected output. So that we could help you out easily.
Thanks,
R. Singh
Homework? No, I'm learning UNIX for OS X on my own using sources bought online. Didn't have a clue of the dedicated section for homework. Will consider in future, thanx.

No, the picture is just contents of My_dir.tsv that is a snapshot of my home directory listing not the actual
ls command. It's the My_dir.tsv that is 3.1K in reality.

The course is "Learning UNIX for Mac OS X users" by Kevin Scoglund.
