I grabbed this from a previous thread that is now closed. I used this to get the ouput for the df command:

df|awk -F" " '{ if (length($1) > 15 ){printf("%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\n",$1,$2,$3,$4,$5)} else {printf("%s\t\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\n",$1,$2,$3,$4,$5)} } '

problem is when i use df -g |awk -F" " '{ if (length($1) > 15 ){printf("%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\n",$1,$2,$3,$4,$5)} else {printf("%s\t\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\n",$1,$2,$3,$4,$5)} } '
I get ouput like this. Is there a way to exclude the word "blocks" when using the command?

Filesystem GB blocks Used Free %Used Mounted on
/dev/hd4 2.00 0.51 1.49 26% /
/dev/hd2 8.00 3.11 4.89 39% /usr

/dev/hd1 8.00 0.36 7.64 5% /home
/dev/hd11admin 0.50 0.00 0.50 1% /admin
 
df -g |awk -F" " '{sub(/blocks/,"");if (length($1) > 15 ){printf("%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\n",$1,$2,$3,$4,$5)} else {printf("%s\t\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\n",$1,$2,$3,$4,$5)} } '

thanks, works perfect! Learned something new with awk.
Thanks,

I am having trouble creating an alias for this in my .profile. I tried this:
alias dfg='df -g |awk -F" " '{sub(/blocks/,"");if (length($1) > 15 ){printf("%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\n",$1,$2,$3,$4,$5)} else {printf("%s\t\t%s\t%s\t%s\t%s\n",$1,$2,$3,$4,$5)} } ''

the result i get when i logback in is: ksh: 0403-057 Syntax error: `(' is not expected.

I have tried it a few more ways but this is the closet i got, at least, i think. Any suggestions would be graeat.
Thanks,
Richard
