    parse file and delete field

    Ygor, Sorry about that. It works fine for files with small number of columns. I had a file with 49 columns in it and I was trying to delete the 49th column and was unable to do it. I read in the sed man pages that sed cannot edit very long lines. Is sed reliable for long lines and how long...

    parse file and delete field

    Ygor, I used your solution in my application for stripping a column and it worked fine. However if you have a blank column in between it does not strip successfully. For example in the below data : 10/17/2003^F^444444^F^11^F^^F^1333^F^09-15-2003^R^ If I want to strip column 1 it gets...

    compress tar question

    Simple question... * I have a a.tar.Z compressed file in directory A. * I want to uncompress and untar the files in a.tar.Z and put them in directory B. Is there a more efficient way than doing it in 3 steps... - cp A/a.tar.Z B/. - uncompress B/a.tar.Z - tar -xvf B/a.tar Thanks for your help.

    parse file and delete field

    vgersh99, Thanks for your quick response. I changed the FS to be "\\^F\\^" and OFS to be "^F^" in your script and tried it. It worked very well, except for the last column. For example when I specified the fld2delete=5 it did not delete the 5th field from the sample...

    search pattern and get line 46 before its occurance

    CaKiwi thanks for your response. The script worked perfectly. An additional question. Instead of printing the 46th line before the pattern, can I search for the word &quot;Case:&quot; before the pattern 124304 and print that line. So if the file is as below ======== 06/18/2003 12:00:00:008...
