Shell Programming and Scripting

it is

Code:

 SunOS

on

Code:

i86

egrep

Code:

-A -B

is not working

Code:

% uname -a
SunOS xxxx 5.10 Generic_147148-26 i86pc i386 i86pc

This still doesn't help. What is not working?

Again, I don't want to be rude, but imagine if you took your car to the garage and said "Something is wrong." At least the mechanic could explore it, test drive it and try to work out what you are getting at. I'm blind unless you explain and fully answer what is asked.

I have a potential answer, but I don't want to muddy the board going off on the wrong tack. My logic is:-All of this is one read operation with pipes in between. You could even tag it on to the command you use to extract the data directly from Autosys if you choose.

Does this seem like a suitable process? Would you care to try your hand first, after all we're all here to learn and that's best done by having a go.

Hi.

On my Solaris 10, there are additional GNU utilities in a separate directory:

Code:

/usr/sfw/bin/ggrep
OS, ker|rel, machine: SunOS, 5.10, i86pc
Distribution        : Solaris 10 10/08 s10x_u6wos_07b X86
ggrep grep (GNU grep) 2.5

which may help with lack of -A, -B options on the Sun version of grep.

Best wishes ... cheers, drl
