Need advise/tip if there is more efficient way of doing this cut/paste/awk after changing a field
Hi,
This is the script currently and it is working as required. Just thought maybe there is a better or easier way of doing what I am trying to do.
Below is an excerpt of the file that I want to change. This is x.txt, the original file that I want to run this on is about 1000+ lines. Basically, these files are from several log files merged into one and I am wanting to change the USER=<username> field so that <username> is in lower case. I am working on the assumption that USERNAME=<username> is always field2.
Sample run of the script below:
I could simply do
but for 'clarity' I prefer to only change USER=<username> to USER=<lowercase_username> and leave the rest of the line as it is. I can't work out the awk or sed command options to use to achieve what I wanted, hence I ended up with a shell script instead. Maybe there is an awk one-liner that can do what I am trying to achieve
Hi,

awk ' {print $2}' table.txt
Is there anyway to use awk to actually cut a column and put it somewhere else in the table?:confused: (8 Replies)

<?php
echo msgfmt_format_message("en_US", "{0,number,integer} monkeys on {1,number,integer} trees make {2,number} monkeys per tree
", array(4560, 123, 4560/123));
echo msgfmt_format_message("de", "{0,number,integer} Affen auf {1,number,integer} Baumen sind {2,number} Affen pro Baum
", array(4560, 123, 4560/123));
?>
Example #2
OO example
<?php
echo MessageFormatter::formatMessage("en_US", "{0,number,integer} monkeys on {1,number,integer} trees make {2,number} monkeys per tree
", array(4560, 123, 4560/123));
echo MessageFormatter::formatMessage("de", "{0,number,integer} Affen auf {1,number,integer} Baumen sind {2,number} Affen pro Baum
