Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting How to get first four parts of the string? Post 303019178 by digioleg54 on Sunday 24th of June 2018 02:36:10 PM

It works, but I have a Korn shell. Are you sure it will work with Korn shell?
I believe I can use `awk -F"." {'print $5.$4.$3.$2'}`


str%. works because of
Code:
#!/bin/ksh

at the beginning of the script. Seems like it is csh.

Please advise


Thanks for contribution
