Script using the cut command 1

[buckpasser]

Folks,

I have a large data file that I cut data out of using the following cut command line.

cut -f 1-3,6,7,11,12,28,33,43-45,62,64,97-101,210,211,217,224,286,316,326,346,556,616,846,1181 -d ',' filename.txt >> newfile.txt

Rather than retyping the command over and over again, I would like to use a script.

Thanks

Hi

[tt]alias[/tt] ? If you have [tt]bash[/tt] or [tt]ksh[/tt]. Maybe in other shells too.

alias mycut="cut -f 1-3,6,7,11,12,28,33,43-45,62,64,97-101,210,211,217,224,286,316,326,346,556,616,846,1181 -d ','"

mycut filename.txt >> newfile.txt
