Hi shoaibjameel123,
What happens when you apply your trick to the 1st input file still isn't clear. Did the code I suggested in post #4 do what you want, or did you want the updated 1st input file...

This
awk '
BEGIN {c = 1
}

!NF {next
}

/^DONE/ {for (i=2; i<c; i++) for (j=1; j<=MX; j++) print T[1,j], T[i,j] " > " (FILENAME...

Try also
awk '
!NF {next
}
/^DONE/ {for (i=1; i<=MX; i++) print T[i]
}
/^CONTINUE/ {n = 0
next
}
...

I agree with RudiC that the leading CONTINUE line makes no sense in your 1st sample input file. The following code silently ignores that line. Maybe something like:
#!/bin/bash
find . -name...

Hi,

See this sample running on one input file :

$ cat cont1db.txt
size
waist-(on-half)
hip-(on-half)
inseam
CONTINUE
alt
14"
24-3/4"
34"
CONTINUE
axlt
15"
26-3/4"
34-1/2"
CONTINUE

Add a closing square bracket to the first search pattern:sed ':L;s/\(\[\[[^] ]*\) \([^]]*\]\)/\1-\2/;tL' file and try again.

Try also awk 'NF==2{Q=$2} $2=Q' file
a.txt computer
b.txt computer
c.txt computer
e.txt computer
And, overwrite the original file only when the command worked error free.

Hello shoaibjameel123,

Could you please try following and let me know if this helps you.

for file in *.txt
do
awk '{if($2==""){$2=Q};if($2){Q=$2};print}' $file > tmp_file

Note that the code:
e.key = word;
e.data = (char *) file_name;
ep = hsearch ( e , ENTER ); //create a hash table
has word and file_name with identical addresses for each entry you add...

How about awk '
{sub (" ", FS)
$0=$0
T[$2]=(T[$2]?T[$2]"_":"") $1
}
END {for (t in T) print T[t], t
}
' FS="\001" file

Hello shoaibjameel123,

Could you please try following and let me know if this helps you.

awk 'FNR==NR{A=$1;$1="";array[$0]=array[$0]?array[$0] "_" A:A;next} {$1="";B=$0} (B in...

Paralleling process won't help but increase memory congestion as every process will allocate own memory for the same operations.

Don't cat the big_file but have sed read the file directly - that...

The REs required to match two words of context before and after a specified word using grep are much more complex than the exact word matches I'm using in the awk field in array tests. So I was...

I had a much more complicated awk script that ignores line boundaries when looking for the two words before and after words found in words_file.txt, but this simple script seems to do what you want...

Hi.

I'm not going to post everything because I'm still thinking about it, but this version of the grep pattern seems to produce the expected output:

Wouldn't it be the easiest to put the big_file.txt to some RAMDisk and then read from there? How to make a RAMDisk is depending on your system, but i'm sure there is one. It might require areboot,...

Please post small but meaningful samples of your two files. And, use code not icode tags.

Would this help as...

Perhaps
grep -owP '(?:\w+\s){0,2}words(?:\s\w+){0,2}' sample.txt

Hello shoaibjameel123,

Following may help you in same.

awk '{for(i=1;i<=NF;i++){if($i == "words"){print $(i-2) OFS $(i-1) OFS $i OFS $(i+1) OFS $(i+2)}}}' Input_file
Output will be as...

You can also use sed for the task:

sed -e 's/^-//' -e 's/-$//' filename

You were very close, just change:
awk '/\.U/{c=2}c&&c--' fileto:
awk '/\.[UW]/{c=2}c&&c--' file

Or use sub function:
awk '{sub(1,"+1",$1);sub(0,"-1",$1)}1' file

awk '{ if( $1 == 1) $1 = "+1"; else if ($1 == 0) $1= "-1"; print;}' inputfile

If you have the first column to be 1 and 0 only, then use awk '{ if( $1 == 1) $1 = "+1"; else $1= "-1"; print;}'...

Try :
$ cat file

16 0 11680 3165 15343 8553 9925 3875 820 6430 14226 13261 11355 15428 9140 16184 7934 217

I don't think you can do this with grep. You may want to try this awk that works with the sample you posted. For different input it may need to be modified.awk '/News\/U.S./ {CNT++; next} CNT==3...
