My second sample
works the same as Scrutinizer's sample:
sort the file on the 1st field and pipe the result to awk or a while loop. The awk automatically loops over each input line, so the code only handles the per-line action.
Detailed description follows.
In shell the while loop reads line by line; the 1st field goes to $server variable, the rest to $path variable.
If $server is different from $pserver (true in line 1), it creates a new file "$server.out" with a descriptor 3, and $server is saved in $pserver. Then the "$server $path" is written to the descriptor 3.
If $server is unchanged (equal to $pserver) it writes further "$server $path" to the descriptor 3.
If $server is different from $pserver again, it creates a new file, again using the descriptor 3 that automatically closes the old file.
In contrast, the awk code needs an explicit close(), does not show the file descriptor, and creates the file automatically with the first write.

NAME
nwpjvm - Move print job to Unix queue
SYNOPSIS
nwpjmv [ -S server ] [ -h ] [ -U user name ] [ -P password | -n ] [ -C ] [ -q queue name ] [ -c command ] [ -j job number ] [ -d ]
DESCRIPTION
nwpjmv is a program that connects to print queues on NetWare servers and moves a designated print job to a Unix queue.
OPTIONS
-h
-h is used to print out a short help text.
-S server
server is the name of the server you want to use.
-U user
user is the print server name at the server.
-P password
password is the password to use for the print server at the server. If neither -n nor -P are given, and the user has no open connection
to the server, pserver prompts for a password.
-n
-n should be given if the print server does not require a password.
-C
By default, passwords are converted to uppercase before they are sent to the server, because most servers require this. You can turn off
this conversion by -C.
-q queue name
queue name is the name of the print queue you want to service.
-c command
nwpjmv removes the designated job from the Novell queue and feeds the job file to stdin. command is the printing command that is exe-
cuted for each job. The default command is 'lpr'.
You can insert several flags into the command, preceded by %. These are replaced with values retrieved from the queue structure for the
print job.
%u: This field will be replaced by the name of the user who posted this print job.
%d: This field will be replaced by the job description field of this print job.
-j job number
This designates the ID number of the print job to be moved.
-d causes extra error messages to be logged.
