Operating Systems Solaris Help with Script using awk Post 303003140 by dakelly on Friday 8th of September 2017 03:29:39 AM

Hi All,

Amazing what a wee nights sleep can do....

I found my issue was trying awk in the if statement, so changed it and amended it to what I need...

Code:
. . .
OUTPUT=/tmp/output.txt
LIST=`ls -1 POM* 2>/dev/null`
. . .

for FILE in $LIST
do
    awk -F"," ' { if( NF > 14){ print FILENAME" line:> " NR }}' $FILE >> $OUTPUT
done

this work perfect for what I need it for...

Thanks for all your suggestions.

davy

P.s. Yes still on Solaris 10 but moving to 11 later in the year.

cut

CUT(1)                                                             User Commands                                                            CUT(1)

NAME

       cut - remove sections from each line of files

SYNOPSIS

       cut OPTION... [FILE]...

DESCRIPTION

       Print selected parts of lines from each FILE to standard output.

       With no FILE, or when FILE is -, read standard input.

       Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too.

       -b, --bytes=LIST
              select only these bytes

       -c, --characters=LIST
              select only these characters

       -d, --delimiter=DELIM
              use DELIM instead of TAB for field delimiter

       -f, --fields=LIST
              select only these fields;  also print any line that contains no delimiter character, unless the -s option is specified

       -n     (ignored)

       --complement
              complement the set of selected bytes, characters or fields

       -s, --only-delimited
              do not print lines not containing delimiters

       --output-delimiter=STRING
              use STRING as the output delimiter the default is to use the input delimiter

       -z, --zero-terminated
              line delimiter is NUL, not newline

       --help display this help and exit

       --version
              output version information and exit

       Use  one,  and only one of -b, -c or -f.  Each LIST is made up of one range, or many ranges separated by commas.  Selected input is written
       in the same order that it is read, and is written exactly once.  Each range is one of:

       N      N'th byte, character or field, counted from 1

       N-     from N'th byte, character or field, to end of line

       N-M    from N'th to M'th (included) byte, character or field

       -M     from first to M'th (included) byte, character or field
