Hello mad man,

Not sure but the Input_file which you have shown doesn't have any line whose length is more than 1330, so if you are using same Input_file I don't think so it will show any output. You could confirm by doing following too.

Code:

awk '{print length($0)}' Input_file

In case no line is having more than 1330 length then you could change the length into above code.

Thanks,
R. Singh
