Shell Programming and Scripting

Something like:

Code:

awk '{print > "something" FILENAME ".txt"}' $line

Regards

Im afraid that doesnt work.

cat listoffiles | while read $line;do awk '{print > "nonav$line" $1 ".txt"}' $line;done

This is my line.

What I want to do is take each filename in listoffiles use awk to extract the 2nd column and 3rd column of my data which have the same entry in the first column and put them in a file containing the same name as the file from which they came.

I've missed something, try this:

Code:

awk '{print > "something" FILENAME $1 ".txt"}' $line

Regards

That doesnt work either.

All Im trying to do is really

awk '{print > "something${f}" $1 ".txt"}'

How do I expand the variable ${f} inside the awk ????

Its ok, I solved it, thats for your help
