I am trying to print the output of a command to two separate files. Is it possible to use awk to print $1 to one file and $2 to another file?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks you, that works well.

I need a non-perl (bash) way to strip the path from a list of "find" results. Below is the perl version which I could use, if I could figure out how to call the script with a variable (like in sh, $1...

Thanks for that. I use the search feature, and didn't find that post.

Thanks again! :D

I need to add a list of numbers contained in a file. For example, the file would look like this:

That's does it, thanks!!!


(You guys rock!)

How would I echo the same results to two files? One is a running log, and the other is a cache, or sort.

echo "Hello World" >> /Logs/File1 & /tmp/file2

I would just copy it from one place to...

The KEYS are static values in my script, I'm just having trouble with setting them as...

OK, I'm stumped.

I have a shell script that reads a list, and for every item in the list performs a lookup in our Active Directory. Now, it seems that when I pipe the results into grep, the...

A file contains one name per line, such as:

john doe
jack bruce
nancy smith
sam riley

When I 'cat' the file, the white space is treated as a new line. For example

How would I go about taking a string, such as a name (first last) and changing the capitalization of the first letter of each name (First Last)?

I am trying to add a line of text just before the last line in a file.

For example, if the last line of a file is "exit 0", I need to add a line of text just before that.

Any ideas how I might...

Yep, the grep (or grep -v) doesn't work, not sure why.

As far as being on their own line, they are.

The only problem is however, that I was trying to put the whole statment into a variable,...

OK, the second one works, except I can't seem to getifaddr on lo0, I need to be able to list all interfaces, except lo0

Oh, and how can I get each interface listed on it's own line?

Thanks!

I am still really foggy on how to make an array work for me....

Yeah, I don't think this is going to work. I'm os OS X and I don't have the korn shell on the client computers.

I'll figure out a way. I think all I need is the unmount command, because if the...

That doesn't seem to work. It's doing the "else", even though Backups_Admin is in /Volumes/

I need to find out if a variable contains a certain text string, then do something about it.

Here is what I mean, but I don't know how to get a "contains" operator

Hmmm... this project is actually a "homework" assignment of sorts already.

Anyway, you've been helpful and I appreciate it.

I'm going to take that as a compliment ;)


Anyway, thanks, it your info serves my purpose.

Any idea if I can "sort" this my month?

Maybe you have some time to help "pretty up" my code?

OK, I have a command that is getting a result, that I am trying to format using awk.

I think it's pretty ugly, and there is probably a better way to do it, but this is sorta working for me....

When setting a variable, how would I go about making each result a new line?

A very simple example would be:

theFolders=`(ls -l /)`

echo $theFolders
This gives me all the folders as one...

How does one escape the left bracket in awk?

For example:
