Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Printing string from last field of the nth line of file to start (or end) of each line (awk I think) Post 303012565 by samonl on Tuesday 6th of February 2018 05:27:05 AM

It's not found in my desired output because I copied it by hand. I couldn't copy and paste because the windows generated output end of line characters are/were messy everywhere (on mac text editor; in browser, on windows partition - it sometimes seems to result in one continuous line sometimes not)

Your suggestion produced this:

Code:
,Item 11213, 1372.44
,Item 11213, 1052.90
,Item 114109, -1102.03
,Item 11131, 721.06

which is close (added a , rather the end of the relevant field). Thank you though.

NAME
Prima::DetailedOutline - a multi-column outline viewer with controlling header widget. SYNOPSIS
use Prima::DetailedOutline; my $l = $w-> insert( 'Prima::DetailedList', columns => 2, headers => [ 'Column 1', 'Column 2' ], items => [ [ ['Item 1, Col 1', 'Item 1, Col 2'], [ [ ['Item 1-1, Col 1', 'Item 1-1, Col 2'] ], [ ['Item 1-2, Col 1', 'Item 1-2, Col 2'], [ [ ['Item 1-2-1, Col 1', 'Item 1-2-1, Col 2'] ], ] ], ] ], [ ['Item 2, Col 1', 'Item 2, Col 2'], [ [ ['Item 2-1, Col 1', 'Item 2-1, Col 2'] ], ] ], ], ); $l-> sort(1); DESCRIPTION
Prima::DetailedOutline combines the functionality of Prima::OutlineViewer and Prima::DetailedList. API
This class inherits all the properties, methods, and events of Prima::OutlineViewer (primary ancestor) and Prima::DetailedList (secondary ancestor). One new property is introduced, and one property is different enough to warrant mention. Methods items ARRAY Each item is represented by an arrayref with either one or two elements. The first element is the item data, an arrayref of text strings to display. The second element, if present, is an arrayref of child items. When using the node functionality inherited from Prima::OutlineViewer, the item data (that is, the arrayref of text strings) is the first element of the node. autoRecalc BOOLEAN If this is set to a true value, the column widths will be automatically recalculated (via "autowidths") whenever a node is expanded or collapsed.
