field separator

[vlz]

Hi,
Please let me know what is wrong here(I use tcsh):
alias abc "awk -F= '{print $2}' File|awk -F\" '{print $2}'"

I get unmatched ".
How can I define double-quote separator in the second awk?

Thanks in advance,
Vadim

I can't really test this but try

alias abc "awk -F= '{print $2}' File|awk [b]-F\\\"[/b] '{print $2}'"

I get the same error
:-(

maybe this:
-F"\\\""

and by the way, you may need a need a similar construct for $2 as well;
try this:
print "\$"2

hope this helps

I thought all csh flavors was buggy.
Why not using a standard POSIX shell (aka Korn shell) ?
