Data search a logfile for strings
Hi experts..

I am trying to write a shell script which will scan a log file for three strings ie success image1, success image2, success image3.
My shell is tcsh

If all the 3 strings are found then insert the 3 strings to a file1 and send mail to developers with file1

If all 3 are note found copy the strings to a file2 and send file2 to developers.

Similarly, if string image1 & image2 are found and image3 missing...then insert the string image1 & image2 to file-1 and insert the string image3 to file-2 and send a mail attaching both file1 & file2 to developer.

I tried if - else but that is making the scrip longer,

Could anyone please tell me different way (ideally,using fgrep\grep\sed\awk..or other)

Thanks

shells

shells(4)							   File Formats 							 shells(4)

NAME

       shells - shell database

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/shells

DESCRIPTION

       The shells file contains a list of the shells on the system. Applications use this file to determine whether a shell is valid. See getuser-
       shell(3C). For each shell a single line should be present, consisting of the shell's path, relative to root.

       A hash mark (#) indicates the beginning of a comment; subsequent characters up to the end of the line are not interpreted by  the  routines
       which search the file. Blank lines are also ignored.

       The following default shells are used by utilities: /bin/bash, /bin/csh, /bin/jsh, /bin/ksh, /bin/ksh93, /bin/pfcsh, /bin/pfksh, /bin/pfsh,
       /bin/sh, /bin/tcsh, /bin/zsh, /sbin/jsh, /sbin/sh, /usr/bin/bash, /usr/bin/csh, /usr/bin/jsh, /usr/bin/ksh, /usr/bin/ksh93, /usr/bin/pfcsh,
       /usr/bin/pfksh, /usr/bin/pfsh, and /usr/bin/sh, /usr/bin/tcsh, /usr/bin/zsh, and /usr/sfw/bin/zsh. /etc/shells overrides the default list.

       Invalid shells in /etc/shells could cause unexpected behavior, such as being unable to log in by way of ftp(1).
