Problem in splitiing file based on regex using awk/nawk
I have a file tmp.txt as shown below:
Now I want to split the file into 3 files each for one controller.
I got a code snippet from this forum which worked fine.
Now, I want to pass the path to awk so that split files get created in that path.
I tried to pass the path to awk:
It seems awk is not allowing to pass variable at all.
I tried using nawk (I could pass variable successfully to nawk):
But splitting file based on regex is failing if I use nawk:
Please suggest me how to get rid of this issue.

Hi again,
I'm looking for some help with nawk, I can print a line which has a regex match in it from a file using /pattern/ but I'm looking for a way to only print the $tring which contains the pattern, rather than the whole line.
