Hope the below is the one which shamrock said...correct me if am wrong..


if your output looks like below.

columnA columnB
1233 aaaa
2345 bbbb
3455 cccc

the above output is present in file1.txt

then just use the below command to make it csv

sed 's/space/,/g' file1

it should give the output like below
1233,aaaa
2345,bbbb
3455,cccc

or if there are two different column in differnt files then you can use the below command

paste -d, file1 file2 > output.csv


thanks
Sha
