Use while loop to read file and use ${file} for both filename input into awk and as string to print
I have files named with different prefixes. From each I want to extract the first line containing a specific string, and then print that line along with the prefix.
I've tried to do this with a while loop, but instead of printing the prefix I print the first line of the file twice.
Files:
Here's what I've tried:
But, again, instead of printing the prefix as the first column, it prints the first line of the file.
I'm having problems since few days ago, and i'm not able to make it works with a simple awk+grep script (or other way to do this).
For example, i have a input file1.txt:
cat inputfile1.txt

1172051195
1172070231
1172073514

Hi All,
Do we know how to read input file within awk script and send output toanother log file. All this needs to be in awk script, not in command line. I am running this awk through crontab.
