You can also make use of export command :)

a.sh
#!/bin/sh
echo "Testing 1st script"
x="Came from a.sh"
export $x
b.sh

b.sh
echo "Testing 2nd script"
echo $x
x=$x"Added at b.sh"
echo $x...

You pass variables from a.sh to b.sh by adding the variable after the script name, such as b.sh "$x". You receive variables in b.sh by using $1 for the first variable passed, $2 for the second, etc....

cut can also read from standard input:

$ i=2
$ echo abcde | cut -c$i
b

One way:

awk '/^[^>]/{printf $0;next}NR!=1{print "";}' file

Guru.

awk '{F=$2"."$3"."$4".txt";print $NF >> F;close(F)}' inputfile

It will be much better if you can show us what exactly you did, what output you got in code tags rather than just simply saying "the code doesn't do what is requested"

Guru's code should work...

One way:

$ awk '{print > $2"."$3"."$4".txt" }' file

After running the above awk command:
$ ls 1.10*
1.10.100.txt 1.10.1000.txt 1.10.101.txt
