Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Rearranging fields from a pipe Post 75252 by yankee428 on Thursday 16th of June 2005 11:31:44 AM

I was having the same problem and ended up using the paste command to rearrange:

cut -d , -f 1 some.csv > 1.csv
cut -d , -f 10 some.csv > 10.csv
paste -d ',' 10.csv 1.csv > combined.csv
rm 1.csv
rm 10.csv

1 and 10 are the column(field) numbers(position)
