I believe below will get you what you're looking for.

Code:
d@AirBox:~$ v1=($(awk -F\: '{print $1}' file))
d@AirBox:~$ v2=($(awk -F\: '{print $2}' file))
d@AirBox:~$ for ((i=0 ; i < ${#v1[@]} ; i++));do printf "${v1[$i]}\n${v2[$i]}\n";done

Hello,

Could you please try the following code please.
Let us say test_file have the data as per your request.


Code:
$ cat test_file.ksh
value1=`awk -F: '{print$2}' test_file`
value2=`awk -F: '{print$1}' test_file`
k=0
l=0
set -A array_value1 ${value1}
set -A array_value2 ${value2}
for i in ${array_value1[@]}
do
l=0
for j in ${array_value2[@]}
do
if [[ $k -eq $l ]]
then
echo $j
echo $i
fi
let "l = l +1 "
done
let "k =k +1 "
done



Then Output should be as follows.

Code:
$ ksh test_file.ksh
Post1
uri
Post2
urieop
Post3
urtei



Thanks,
R. Singh
