I have used a meaningful variable name rather than just i and read the file into a while loop. It is clearer to read and the input does not risk get eaten up by the commands within the loop.
The line ending \ can have nothing after it. It means that the new-line is ignored, so on execution it is joined up but means it is somewhat easier to read.
I would suggest you are trying to do too much in one step with pipes from the output to grep, then awk, then cut, then xargs, then cut, then cut, then grep, then cut and finally sed
A tool like awk can do all of this (although it might need to call out to nslookup) which will neaten your code too.
Can you explain what you are actually trying to achieve? I think I've got it, but if I have misinterpreted, I don't want to write it out and have you think that I've got it.
Thanks, in advance,
Robin

set_color
set_color(1) fish set_color(1)NAME
set_color - set_color - set the terminal color
set_color - set the terminal color
Synopsis
set_color [-v --version] [-h --help] [-b --background COLOR] [COLOR]
Description
Change the foreground and/or background color of the terminal. COLOR is one of black, red, green, brown, yellow, blue, magenta, purple,
cyan, white and normal.
o -b, --background Set the background color
o -c, --print-colors Prints a list of all valid color names
o -h, --help Display help message and exit
o -o, --bold Set bold or extra bright mode
o -u, --underline Set underlined mode
o -v, --version Display version and exit
Calling set_color normal will set the terminal color to whatever is the default color of the terminal.
Some terminals use the --bold escape sequence to switch to a brighter color set. On such terminals, set_color white will result in a grey
font color, while set_color --bold white will result in a white font color.
Not all terminal emulators support all these features. This is not a bug in set_color but a missing feature in the terminal emulator.
set_color uses the terminfo database to look up how to change terminal colors on whatever terminal is in use. Some systems have old and
incomplete terminfo databases, and may lack color information for terminals that support it. Download and install the latest version of
ncurses and recompile fish against it in order to fix this issue.
