My expected output is

Code:

help.comwild 1234567 1234569
milk.comwild 1234568 1234569

pulp.comwild 1234567 1234569
gulp.comwild 1234568 1234569

Basically, I want to delete the preceding basic information and printing the third, 11th and 12th column from the table. Please keep in mind that the input text is separated by uneven space delimiter. My output can have tab delimited.

Thanks

Try this:

Code:
awk 'NF>12{print $3,$11,$12 }' OFS='\t' infile

Code:
awk '/--*$/ {d=1;next} d && !/Home/ && int($8)==100{print $3,$11,$12}/Home/{d=0}' OFS='\t' myFile

You should be able to make the simple changes yourself with 7K posts already...

This will output your 3 columns(space delimited), "t" is your file:
Code:
sed '/^browser/!d' t | awk '{print $3 " " $11 " " $12}'

@vgersh99, OP only has 181 posts, think your looking at you own post count, LOL.

Code:
awk 'NF>12&&$8+0==100{print $3,$11,$12 }' OFS='\t' infile
