thank you Don!
@Don : f1 and f2 aren't part of the data. they are just the file names. Also your solution is removing 1 record from the output. meaning if my input has 1000 records, i get only 999 as output after the updates/changes. I am trying to see why that is happening.
but both solutions worked on my actual data. This is amazing, i never expected the reply to be so quick! . Thank you so much. this helps me a lot and gives me ideas for my future file processing tasks.
Hi mansoorcfc,
That is exactly what I said in post #3 in this thread:
Quote:
Assuming that your first sample file is named f1 rather than f1 being the first line of your first file and that your second input file is named f2 rather than the first line of your second input file being f2 (tran number is second field), then you can use whichever one of the suggestions RudiC provided that matches the actual input you need to process.
The code I posted was to be used only if the 1st line in each file is to be treated as some kind of header line that should be ignored when producing output. The code in my script:
skips the 1st line in each input file. (FNR is set by awk to be the record number of the current input line from the current input file.) Therefore, the output file will have one line less than your 2nd input file (and whatever transaction number is on the 1st line of your 1st input file will not be recognized as a known transaction number when processing the 2nd input file).

I've ended up with a small collection of libraries I like to use with awk, but this means I can't do awk -f librarycode.awk '{ program code }' filename because awk will assume that anything after -f is a filename, not code. Is there any way I can do both? (6 Replies)

copt - peephole optimizer
SYSNOPIS
copt file ...
DESCRIPTION
copt is a general-purpose peephole optimizer. It reads code from its standard input and writes an improved version to its standard output.
copy reads the named files for its optimizations, which are encoded as follows:
<pattern for input line 1>
<pattern for input line 2>
...
<pattern for input line n>
=
<pattern for output line 1>
<pattern for output line 2>
...
<pattern for output line m>
<blank line>
Pattern matching uses literal string comparison, with one exception: ``%%'' matches the ``%'' character, and ``%'' followed by a digit
matches everything up to the next occurrence of the next pattern character, though all occurrences of %n must denote the same string. For
example, the pattern ``%1=%1.'' matches exactly those strings that begin with a string X, followed by a ``='' (the first), followed by a
second occurrence of X, followed by a period. In this way, the input/output pattern
mov $%1,r%2
mov *r%2,r%2
=
mov %1,r%2
commands copt to replace runs like
mov $_a,r3
mov *r3,r3
with
mov _a,r3
Note that a tab or newline can terminate a %n variable.
copt compares each run of input patterns with the current input instruction and its predecessors. If no match is found, it advances to the
next input instruction and tries again. Otherwise, it replaces the input instructions with the corresponding output patterns, pattern vari-
ables instantiated,and resumes its search with the first instruction of the replacement. copt matches input patterns in reverse order to
cascade optimizations without backing up.
BUGS
Errors in optimization files are always possible.
