You could also try something like:
awk -F ', *' '{printf("%-4s%-25s%-40s%s\n", $1 ",", $2 ",", $3 ",", $4)}' file
If you want to try this on a Solaris/SunOS system, change awk to /usr/xpg4/bin/awk,...

Hello thiland,

Could you please try following for same, let me know if this helps.

awk -F, '{printf"%s,%s,%30s,%70s\n", $1, $2, $3, $4}' OFS=, Input_file


Output will be as follows.

1, ...

may not be exactly what you want, but worth a try

cat yourfile | column -s "," -t

awk '/^timer/{$(NF+1)=++n}1' file.txt > file1.txt

Try replacing $2+=1 with $2=++i

If i understand the requirement correctly, perhaps this awk ?


awk '$1 <= 12 { $1=$1-2 }1' inputfile > outputfile

It doesn't work because you missed out part of the command:
awk '{ if ($0 ~ /[a-z]$/) {print $0"..."} else {print $0} }' RS="" ORS="\n\n" file

Also, please use [code] tags - it makes your code...

Nice solution CarloM, it can be simplified slightly:

awk '/[[:alpha:]]$/ {$0=$0 "..."}1' RS="" ORS="\n\n" infile2

How about doing it for each keyword...
sed -e 's/Alcuin$/&.../' -e 's/shield$/&.../' -e 's/death$/&.../' file

An awk solution:
awk '{ if ($0 ~ /[[:alpha:]]$/) {print $0 "..."} else {print} }' RS="" ORS="\n\n" file

Man Page for apt-cdrom (all Section 8) - The UNIX and Linux Forums (https://www.unix.com/man-page/all/8/apt-cdrom/) looks promising.

How about using awk:

awk 'length($3$4)<50{$3=$3" "$4;NF=3}1' RS= OFS='\n' ORS='\n\n' FS='\n' infile

awk '1;length<=m && /[[:alpha:][:space:],]$/ && getline p{print (length(p)<=n?FS:RS) p}{print RS}' m=20 n=15 ORS= infile


In this case that should have been a-zA-Z or [:alpha:]. The latter is...

Hi,

Try this one, There is little modification in my previous post.


awk -v inpf=35 -v inps=30 '{a[NR]=$0;}END{for(i=1;i<=NR;i++){f=length(a[i]);s=length(a[i+1]);if(f<inpf && s<inps && s!=0...

Try:
awk '1;length<=m && /[[:word:][:space:],]$/ && getline p{print (length(p)<=n?FS:RS) p}{print RS}' m=20 n=15 ORS= infile

Hi,
Try this one,

awk -v inpf=35 -v inps=30 '{a[NR]=$0;}END{for(i=1;i<=NR;i++){f=length(a[i]);s=length(a[i+1]);if(f<inpf && s<inps && s!=0 && f!=0){ORS="";}else{ORS="\n";}print a[i];}}' file

...

$join = "join";
open ( FILE ,"$join") or $rc = 101;
while( <FILE> )
{
chomp($_);
$First = $_ if ( $_ =~ /\s$/ );
$length = length($_);
if ( $length == "20" )
{
next;
...

Try like...
paste -d '' - - < test1.txt

Can it be that your file is in dos format? Try converting it to unix format first:
tr -d '\r' < oldfile > newfile

perl -ne 'if (/^\s+/){print "\n\n"}else{chomp;print "$_ "}' inputfile

try this


xargs -L 2 < filename.txt

I presume you mean the other way around.. See if this works:
awk '/[^[:punct:]],*$/{getline $(NF+1)}NF' infile
or perhaps even this (if every sentence is a paragraph that ends with an empty line).....

sed '/[^[:punct:]],*$/{N;s/\n/ /;}' infile
awk '/[^[:punct:]],*$/{getline $(NF+1)}1' infile

cat infilke | xargs -d '\n'

echo "this is-a hyphen,oh oh one more-hyphen"|sed -r 's/(.*-.*)-/\1 /'

output:

this is-a hyphen,oh oh one more hyphen
