I've searched and found the solution to an old post but as it is a very old post, I don't see an option to update it with additional question.
The question I have is in relation to the following post:
How to convert a comma delimited string to records or lines of text?
I just want to know if there is a way to number the output. At the moment, I am piping the output to nl to generate a numbered list. I just want to know how I can change the following so it can be a numbered output without using nl.
Not sure if I should PM RudiC or RavinderSingh13, sorry.
Code:
tr ',' '\n' < file3
user1
user2
user3
user4

awk -F"," '{for(i=1;i<=NF;i++){print $i}}' Input_file
OR
awk '{gsub(/\,/,"\n",$0);print $0}' Input_file

Hello newbie_01,

As per forum rules we should NOT ask questions in PMs. Good that you found answer by searching it, for future it is always good to mention 3 things. 1- Sample of your Input_file, 2- sample of your expected Output and 3rd- Most important one, what have you have tried in order to solve the problem.

Once you provide all details you will get all kind of guidance needed on here, keep learning and keep sharing on this great site,cheers.

Thanks,
R. Singh
