Help with awk statement
Hi

I have a file with

Code:
test test2 1000000657373
test1 test3 1000003849450
test2 test4 test5 100000837474

I cat the file and pipe it to an awk statement like so

Code:
cat /tmp/file |awk '{if ($3 ~ "^[0-9][0-9]*$" && $3 > 1024000000) print "/vol/"$1"/"$2;else if ($4 ~ "^[0-9][0-9]*$" && $4 > 1024000000) print "/vol/"$1"/"$2 " "$3}'

Which the output is

Code:
/vol/test/test2
/vol/test1/test3
/vol/test2/test4 test5

How can I get it to print something at the begining and in between to look like
Code:
INSERT
/vol/test/test2
INSERT
/vol/test1/test3
INSERT
/vol/test2/test4 test5

Thanks and much appreciated

                        s = s ? s OFS $i : $i
                printf "%s\n", s
                s = ""
        }
' OFS="/" file
