UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users

I HAVE A FILE "TEXT.TXT" WHICH CONTAINS FOLLOWING :

CHANNEL(SYSTEM.DEF.CLUSRCVR) CHLTYPE(CLUSRCVR)
CHANNEL(TO.XYZ) CHLTYPE(CLUSRCVR)

NOW I WANT THE NAMES WRITTEN BETWEEN THE BRACES () UNDER COLUMN ONE, THAT IS, TO.XYZ and SYSTEM.DEF.CLUSRCVR.

USING awk i can get the first column, but then how to proceed further ?
I am doing like this :

sed -n '/CHANNEL/p' TEST.TXT | awk '{print $1 ;}' | tr '()' ' ' | awk '{print $2;}' | tr ')' ' '

And it does the objective , but i want something more presize and good option !!

ASAP Any help, genius ??
Thanks !!

Code:

awk '{print $2}' FS="[()]" TEST.TXT

Hey thanks for your reply !!

Its giving statements within the braces(), BUT it gives something more then that too. Its given below :
$ awk '{print $2}' FS="[()]" text.txt
----------------------------------
C



*

SYSTEM.DEF.CLUSRCVR

TO.EAIDVBR1



----------------------------------

under "---" O/P is like shown above, more blank lines, C, *
Don't know from where its being generated ?

Please if you can rectify this ??
Thanks !!

Could you poste a sample from TEST.TXT?
It has to be different from the lines you posted above ...

CHANNEL(SYSTEM.DEF.CLUSRCVR) CHLTYPE(CLUSRCVR)
CHANNEL(TO.EAIDVBR1) CHLTYPE(CLUSRCVR)


i HAVE THIS MUCH ONLY IN A FILE.

Hey Radoulov,

Can you please check the hint given by you only, once again...!!
I have given the Contents already of the file that i am using. Can you please
help me in that ?

Please check it !!

With cut & paste from your post.

on Linux:

Code:

% cat file
CHANNEL(SYSTEM.DEF.CLUSRCVR) CHLTYPE(CLUSRCVR)
CHANNEL(TO.EAIDVBR1) CHLTYPE(CLUSRCVR)
% gawk '{print $2}' FS="[()]" file
SYSTEM.DEF.CLUSRCVR
TO.EAIDVBR1
% mawk '{print $2}' FS="[()]" file
SYSTEM.DEF.CLUSRCVR
TO.EAIDVBR1

on Solaris:

Code:

$ /usr/xpg4/bin/awk '{print $2}' FS="[()]" file
SYSTEM.DEF.CLUSRCVR
TO.EAIDVBR1
$ nawk '{print $2}' FS="[()]" file
SYSTEM.DEF.CLUSRCVR
TO.EAIDVBR1

Doesn't work with the old awk on Solaris, but gives a different result
(produce no output at all):

Code:

$ awk '{print $2}' FS="[()]" file
