Something like this should be useful to you:

#!/bin/bash

output=`sh script1.sh`
echo "This is the output of sript1: $output"


The ` ` symbols execute a command.
output=`...` stores the...

Thanks, but as I said in many cases awk is not as practical as cut, so I was hoping for a solution using cut or something very similar.

For instance, I don't think there's an easy way in awk of...

I'm not sure about this, but vi may have an option to automatically add a newline at the end of each line.

So, if a file has 3 lines with no newline at the end of the 3d line, pressing enter would...

I just discovered, to my dismay, the following part of the cut man page:

-f, --fields=LIST
select only these fields;
also print any line that contains no delimiter character, unless the...

Hi,

I'm not sure where are all the files that you're trying to find exactly (is blah.txt in the same Processed/090624005217 directory than the file you're trying to compare it to?).

But I can...

Thanks for the answers. I suspected that such a thing as 2| did not exist in any shell, but I thought this was the place to ask to be sure of it!

The idea of creating the pipes myself is pretty...

Hello,

I would like to know if there is a shell in which operations such as 2| (redirect standard error of one process to the standard input of another one) exist?
I know it is possible to do it...

I have no idea if it is feasible to change the filesize limit.
For sort, the man page should tell you exactly the limitations. If the man page doesn't mention any limitations then there should be...

I think it's quite possible that you have such a file size limitation.
If I were you I'd try to edit your C code to see if the error occurs before the sort
command is called or not. I'd say it's...

OK, problem solved.

It's not a bug, I just misunderstood the behaviour of the -c option of sort:
it does not just check that the file is sorted according to the field specified
by the -k...

There's surely a more elegant way to do this, but if you have only 4 fields
you can do it with cut:

var1=`cut -d',' -f1 $string`
var2=`cut -d',' -f2 $string`

and so on (the cut command cuts a...

Hi everyone,

I use the sort from the 5.3.0 coreutils package. I have a file consisting in 5 fields
separated by a single space, with no leading or trailing blanks.
I want to sort it first...
