Hello jcdole,

Could you please try following and let me know if this helps you.
Code:
VAR1=$(grep -oE '.*ext4[[:space:]]+'  Input_file)
VAR2=$(grep -oE 'acl.*[[:space:]]+' Input_file)

Now be very careful here, if you want to preserve space at last here then print them with " like as follows.

Following should be done as per your requirement:
Code:
echo "$VAL1" | cat -e
UUID=957c3295-9944-1593-82e2-2b90dede4312 /                     ext4       $

echo "$VAL2" | cat -e
acl,user_xattr        1 $

So above is your requested output, in case you simply do a echo then you could see difference in outputs.

Following should not be done as per your requirement:
Code:
echo $VAL2 | cat -e
acl,user_xattr 1$
  
echo $VAL1 | cat -e
UUID=957c3295-9944-1593-82e2-2b90dede4312 / ext4$

I hope this helps you.

NOTE: Remove cat -e from above commands as I have shown you to see the space position for variables only.

Thanks,
R. Singh
