Hello all,

I'm trying to break down a file with the following format:

[section_nme]
entries
dzdf
daff

[section 2]
enries
dfln
fnljfd
.

I'm reading this file, using "["...

Hi All,
I'm running some encrypted data through a script I wrote. In order to do this, I'm using eval to resolve some of my variables. At the moment, when I use eval to resolve, it strips out some...

Found the solution - Eval

so my script becomes

count=1
for x in $(cat /etc/filename); do
eval "file_$count=$(echo $variable| awk '{print $1}')"
count=$(( $count + 1 ))
done

Hello all, I am currently trying to over-complicate things by doing something similar to the code below:
count=1
for x in $(cat /etc/filename); do
file_$count=$(echo $variable| awk '{print $1}')...

Just to clarify things - I have a file with all the lines ending with \n\r when viewed with od -c. However, one line ends with just \n. I'd like to insert the \r character because the file is...

Era, all those help me to view the hidden characters. However in this case I'd also like to insert a newline or a carriage return, that's why I need an editor that will enable me both to view and to...

Hello All,
I'm trying to parse through a file and display all the hidden characters, including all carriage and line returns. I usually use cat -v, but this doesn't display the carriage and line...

Hi guys, I'm trying to run more than one "if" condition at once. What I want is something like

if [[ $a = 1 ]] or [[ $b = 2 ]] or [[ $c = 3 ]]; then

Hi All,
newbie-ish question here. I have this script:

foreach $test (@num)
{
foreach $record (@neet)
{
if ($record =~ /$test/){
print "$record \n";
print $test;
}
}
}

For some reason,...

Finally resolved.

nawk -F"," -v red="$random_variable" '{print $red}' $w_dir/$file_name > $w_dir/${column_name}

The double-quotes around the variable did it.

I checked. There are no hidden characters. For double measure, I have re-typed that line of code (not copied and pasted). Still the same error.

I'll call it a week now - it's 17:37 over here. I'll pick up again on monday.

cheers Guys

Code tags??

Hi. I just checked everyone of those variables. Still no difference.

Hey Franklin.

I currently do echo the $random_variable variable, that is correct. I'm not sure I'm able to echo the "red" variable

I tried again.

nawk: can't open file {print red}
source line number 1

When I echo $random_variable, which have done while trying to troubleshoot, I get a number - 10, 11 or 13.

I have even tried running substituting the value

nawk -F"," -v red=13 '{print $red}'...

Hi All,
a bit of a weird one here. I'm trying to pass a variable into an awk command, and I keep getting an error.

I have the line

nawk -F"," -v red=$random_variable '{print $red}'...

<Sigh> Vino,

In a ksh script, the line

echo -n "hi I'm happy"


will give the output

-n hi I'm happy

Hi All,
I'm trying to use the "echo" command in a korn shell script, and I want it to drop the trailing newline. Now I know that with the bash shell, the "-n" flag would solve this issue. Does...

Sorted!
awk '{ if (( $6 == "Random" )) print $0 }'

thanks y'all

Khoom

Guys, this one is rather odd. I've got an array of numbers, and I'm trying to select only the records with the string "Random" in the 4th column. I'm using awk in this format:

awk '{ if (( $6 -eq...

getting an error near
"<", $ARGV[0])
