Hmmmm - not quite clear yet when you want the dots, and when the printf format strings, or when both... See how far this gets you:



Code:
awk '
FNR == 1        {FILENR++
                }
FILENR <= 2     {CNT++
                 CHFM[CNT] = $1
                 RGEX[CNT] = $2
                 DOTS[CNT] = $3
                 FMTS[CNT] = $4
                 next
                }
                {printf "%s", $0
                 for (j=4; j<=5; j++)   {TMP = $j
                                         PTR = 0
                                         for (i=1; i<=CNT; i++) if (match (TMP, CHFM[i]))       {printf "|%s|%s|%s|%s|%s", PTR + RSTART, RLENGTH, CHFM[i], DOTS[i], FMTS[i]
                                                                                                 TMP = substr (TMP, RSTART+RLENGTH)
                                                                                                 PTR += RSTART + RLENGTH - 1
                                                                                                }
                                        }
                 print ""
                }
