During the latest Windows 10 update the computer locked up. How does one get the PC to boot to the login screen? It wants to drop into setup of the BIOS. Thanks for your time. flogrr flogrr

Hi Kathy, Given your example this should do it: awk '/^[0-9]+/ { if($3 ~ /yes/) $3 = "abc" }' infile > outfile This limits the action to only lines that begin with one or more numbers and tests field 3 for a match on "yes". If so, it replaces "yes" with...

Hi Allen, Here is another way! myfile.awk follows: { FS = &quot;,&quot; $1 = &quot;&quot; $2 = &quot;&quot; fld3 = $3 text = substr ($3,4) for (j = 3; j >= 1; j--) { $3 = (fld3 - j)text for (a = 3; a < NF; a++) printf(&quot;%s,&quot;, $a)...

Hi Shaun, It looks like since you do not use explicit &quot;return&quot; statements in your functions, the AWK language automatically returns the data that was processed by the function call. Therefore, you may simply need to add a &quot;print&quot; immediately after the call to the Unblock...

Hi lambros, If I understand what you are trying to do correctly, this should work. I did not use arrays, but captured the data you wanted in substrings and put it together as one output record. Using the sample input you provided, this is the output: (13/Oct/2002:15:22:57 ) : 'lambros' Test...

Hi lambros, It looks like part of the problem is the reg[0]=$1 AWK does not work the same as 'C' when it comes to arrays. Try changing the zero to one: reg[1]=$1 If the error persists, please post some example input and what the output should look like. flogrr flogr@yahoo.com

Hi Vlad! Thanks for the welcome. Since 9/11 I have been kept very busy with no sign of relief! I do check on what is going on but cannot spare the time to help out a lot. However, you folks (Cakiwi, marsd, yourself, and others) have been dealing with some complex awk problems lately and...

Jo- O.K., this is what you need to do: #!/bin/sh # Must be run in Bourne Shell test=$1 When used within nawk it is addressed: &quot;'$test'&quot; # Have to have double layer of quotes # to protect var from interpretation # by the shell So, just...

Hi jo90, You may have to enclose in double quotes: nawk -v var=&quot;01/Oct/2002:15:56:55&quot; -f awkscript.awk You may also have to add backslashes to escape the forward slashes: nawk -v var=&quot;01\/Oct\/2002:15:56:55&quot; -f awkscript.awk One or the other should work for you...

Hi goldenradium2001, Try this solution: awk ' FILENAME == &quot;output&quot; { lines[++i] = $0 } FILENAME == &quot;file1&quot; { fld3[++j] = $3 } END { for( k = 1; k <= i; k++ ) printf (&quot;%s %s\n&quot;, lines[k], fld3[k]) }' output file1 > file2 Hope this helps flogrr...

Hi erixire, This will do it but it will leave the field separator between F1 and F2: awk '{$1=&quot;&quot;;print}' input > output however, NAWK can take care of it with: nawk 'BEGIN{FS=&quot; &quot;}{$1=&quot;&quot;;sub(&quot; &quot;,&quot;&quot;);print}' input > output To use the nawk...

Hi Kevin! Simply edit in a control &quot;L&quot; (^L) immediately following the last line of each page. This will cause the printer to form feed exactly where you want it to! Hope this helps you. flogrr flogr@yahoo.com

Hi cback- I have tried to solve this for you, but alas, no dice! However, to understand what is happening, refer to the AWK SUMMARY in APPENDIX A (page 192) of The AWK Programming Language book. Here you will find a lucid description as to why AWK acts this way. HTH flogrr...

Hi Dave- I modified the script by bigoldbulldog and it seems to work. Try it and change things the way you need them. I tried to set it up to allow some flexibility in how you want to move (mv) files, etc. /\.00[12]/{ fn = $0 nf = substr(fn,1,length(fn)-4) while ((getline x < fn) >...

Hi rscotty, If your first 4 fields can be counted on to be static, then, this should work for you. I tested it on your short snippet of input and it seems to do what you want. I set it up to be comma delimited, of course! awk 'BEGIN{FS=&quot;,&quot;} { for(i=5;i<=NF;i++) if($i...

Hi Richardii- Is this what you need? If this does not work, please post a snippet of both input and the desired output. awk ' { count = split($0,arr,&quot;);&quot;) for (i=1;i<=count;i++) print arr[i] }' input > output HTH flogrr flogr@yahoo.com

Hi cconsum- Try this one-liner. awk '{ NR==1 ; if( NR % 24 != 0 ) printf(&quot;%s,&quot;,$1) ; else print $1 }' input > output HTH flogrr flogr@yahoo.com

Hi dbmsguy- You might try using gawk. It has no arbitrary limits except the amount of memory available. Standard awk and even the later versions (nawk, mawk, etc.) have fixed limits on record size. Do a search on the net for gawk. There are several sites that offer zipped executables. I...

Hi gawker- A control I (^I) is a tab. You can use octal code 011 in your substr.....thus: /\011/ HTH flogrr flogr@yahoo.com
