Hello,
I am processing data. In the first column there is the date ("2011 02 03 12 45") separated by space and follow I have the measurements.I have several days in one file. What I would like to do is:
to read the data line by line and write the data of "today" in a new file and "yesterday" as well in another file, separated by TAB and the date should be in the form of "2011/02/03 12:45:00".(today and yesterday is already defined in another script).
something like that I thought it might be an approach but I am just beginning to write scripts...
hopefully someone can help me how to do it
Well I'm just starting out too.
I think this would probably easier to handle w/ awk, but since I'm wrapping my head around sed I thought I would give it a go.
I've got some things to do, I'll be back and we'll see where you are.
Here's a start to get the data in the right way-
Now you just have to output it to the right places.
Have at it!

Oh and run as a sed script, presuming the data is in awk-data, the command will look like this at the command prompt-
> sed -f sed-script4 < awk-data
With the contents of sed-script4 being what I posted above this.
Capiche?

How can I redirect all stdout and stderr messages from a command to /dev/null (or to a file if need be) except messages that start with the word 'foo'? Messages that start with 'foo' need to be displayed in real time (i.e., when they are sent to stdout/stderr by the command). Thanks. (5 Replies)
