Didn't you "need it to turn it into an XML file for each row"? Tryawk -v FS="," '
FNR == 1 {split (tolower($0), tags)
next
}

Hello lxdorney,

Could you please try following, not tested it though.

awk -v FS="," 'BEGIN{
qq="\""
}
FNR==1{
for(i=1;i<=NF;i++)
tags[i]=tolower($i)
print "<?xml version=" qq...

something to start with: awk -F, -f lx.awk myFile.csv
where lx.awk is:

BEGIN {
qq="\""
}
FNR==1{
for(i=1;i<=NF;i++)
tags[i]=tolower($i)
print "<?xml version=" qq "1.0" qq...

yes, as per your post#1 input, between paragraphs you had blank line. However in post#4, files shared in googledrive, has a space in those lines. Hence those commands didnt perform what you wanted.

Alas, there is indeed a "brilliant idea", but you probably are not going to like it: write a parser!

The solution you found (and which is similar to many others, including a few of my own) will...

Sure.
If it matches the pattern within the slashes execute the actions within the block {}. The block actions are, replace empty for the first matched group and print and quit.

The Perl line does...

sed -n '/\(.\{99,154\}[^0-9]\.\).*/ {s//\1/p;q}' test.txt

With Perl:
perl -nle '/.{99,154}\D\./ and print $& and last' test.txt

you've a DOS formatted file then. first convert it to unix, or amend the script like so:


awk '{sub(/\r$/,"")}NF {print "<p align=\"justify\"> " $0 " </p>"}' file.txt

You don't need to use cat. Awk can read files on its own.

Here's another way without Awk.
perl -nle 'print "<p align=\"justify\">$_</p>" unless /^$/' file.txt

The following takes advantage of awk's autosplit on whitespace.
awk 'NF {print "<p align=\"justify\"> " $0 " </p>"}' file.txtIf you want to keep the blank lines:
awk 'NF {$0 = "<p...

If you want to exclude lines containing <TAB>s and spaces as well, try awk '!/^[\t ]*$/ {print "<p align=\"justify\"> " $0 " </p>"}' file

Hello lxdorney,

If I understood correctly you need to skip those lines which are empty, then you can try following. It is good you are showing us what you have tried so far, please try to add...

Although the above works with some versions of awk, the standards say the only backslash escapes that are required to be recognized by awk are:\\, \/, \", \a, \b, \f, \n, \r, \t, and \v, and \d, \dd,...

In current context, you can simplify like this also

[akshay@localhost tmp]$ cat file

You could replace the /Uniquerow/ match by e.g. a /COUTRHR/ match, but I assume this would not work with the other thousands of files.
