The original statement contains a grep which will reduce the lines on the output shown. Not sure how much this helps (I added tabs manually to the post to test):

Hello,
I am trying to use AWK to print only the first field of numerous text files, and then overwrite these files. They are of the format 1*2,3,4,5. I have tried the following code (using tcsh):
foreach f (file1 file2 file3)
cat $f | awk -F'*' '{print $1}' > $f
end
However, I get very... (4 Replies)
I am new to unix and have pieced together two scripts that work independently.
The first checks all the filesystems and reports which are running low on space.

Hello,
I was wondering if it is possible to do a loop on letters rather than numbers with awk (gawk).
Basically I used to do:
echo "nothing" | gawk '{for(i=1;i<11;i++)print i}'
But I would like to do something like that (which obviously does not work):
echo "nothing" | gawk '{for(i in... (6 Replies)

Hello, I currently have managed to get an awk function working inside a for loop that allows me to combine two files based on their headings but what I have not been able to do is print the output to files with variable names.

uniq
uniq(1) User Commands uniq(1)NAME
uniq - report or filter out repeated lines in a file
SYNOPSIS
uniq [-c | -d | -u] [-f fields] [-s char] [ input_file [output_file]]
uniq [-c | -d | -u] [-n] [ + m] [ input_file [output_file]]
DESCRIPTION
The uniq utility will read an input file comparing adjacent lines, and write one copy of each input line on the output. The second and suc-
ceeding copies of repeated adjacent input lines will not be written.
Repeated lines in the input will not be detected if they are not adjacent.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-c Precedes each output line with a count of the number of times the line occurred in the input.
-d Suppresses the writing of lines that are not repeated in the input.
-f fields Ignores the first fields fields on each input line when doing comparisons, where fields is a positive decimal integer. A
field is the maximal string matched by the basic regular expression:
[[:blank:]]*[^[:blank:]]*
If fields specifies more fields than appear on an input line, a null string will be used for comparison.
-s chars Ignores the first chars characters when doing comparisons, where chars is a positive decimal integer. If specified in con-
junction with the -f option, the first chars characters after the first fields fields will be ignored. If chars specifies
more characters than remain on an input line, a null string will be used for comparison.
-u Suppresses the writing of lines that are repeated in the input.
-n Equivalent to -f fields with fields set to n.
+m Equivalent to -s chars with chars set to m.
OPERANDS
The following operands are supported:
input_file A path name of the input file. If input_file is not specified, or if the input_file is -, the standard input will be used.
output_file A path name of the output file. If output_file is not specified, the standard output will be used. The results are unspeci-
fied if the file named by output_file is the file named by input_file.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: Using the uniq command
The following example lists the contents of the uniq.test file and outputs a copy of the repeated lines.
