Hi,
You have bad declare TESTDIR variable ( Forgot '$' for '(OS)' ) :
TESTDIR = ./test/$(OS)_$(KERN).$(ARCH)_$(CNAME)_$(FNAME)_$(ver)

Nice approach indeed!
Could be curtailed to
sed -r "/'($(paste -sd\| file2))'/s/^C//" file1, including the item list file as well.

How about using a single line sed like this:-sed "s/^C\( CALL.*'\(Gmax\|Gmin\|HS10\|HS2\|HS9\|Hmax\)'.*\)/\1/" source_file_name > target_file_name

It's a little messy to read, so:-

The RE searches require some quoting effort.
The index() function searches for plain strings and returns the position.
Also only the comments left from the search string matter.

Making some assumptions on your data structure (until Don Cragun's questions have been fully and finally answered), and making up my own sample data files, I have come up with

In post #1, the labels in your sample input files were "train statistics" and "test statistics". In your latest code you have labels with underscores instead of spaces. You'll have to be sure your...

Shutdown is a system-wide action, and requires root privileges in some UNIX systems (macOS included).

This means, if you want to have shutdown as an option in a script, you will need to give the...

No, you are not really correct. I have 4 Macs which I work on extensively, and I do not use MacOS as you describe. When I login as "Neo", which is a user account with MacOS Admin rights, I do not...

You don't need to sudo, just run it from the admin account on the Mac and move on to other tasks.

That way the script stays the same and you don't need to be bothered using sudo to run a simple,...

First off, i can only emphasize what Neo already said. This is the best solution from a practical POV. But since you may want to understand your system better i will try to explain what happened...

Here is POSIX shell compliant code, that returns the full path of a file or directory.

It is a macOS thing. You must right click on the Terminal icon on the Dock, and select Quit.

See the screenshot attached.

There is an option in the MacOS terminal to close the window when the shell exits. That is what I use.

My apologies for not investigating this the other day, I forgot all about it.

Ah, yes. I see!

You name your shell script rsync_data_backup.sh and you have problems.

I name my shell script rsync_data_backup and it works just fine.

This is a Mac OS thing, not a bash thing. I'll take a look at mine when I get home tonight.

Hi LMHmedchem,
Well done. I see no reason why the code you have will not meet your requirements.

This solution as 1 awk program appears to work OK with your test data.

Your #1 problem is that your output file is overwritten by each loop cycle, so will only contain the last sed output.
Your #2 problem is that [ ] are RE-special characters.
