<0> hi all.. can I make awk read column by characters instead delimiters?
<0> ...
<1> you can ***ign characters as delimiters. is that what you mean?
<0> beebum, no.
<2> Lin, then you probably want "substr"
<0> FIELD1FIELDGREATER2FLD3
<0> 3 fields without separatos.
<0> Rado, subst can do it in a single command as:
<0> field1,field2,field3=1-5,6-15,16-19
<0> or something like that.
<2> Huh?
<0> thos isn't a real syntax of anything :-)
<2> "man awk" => search for "substr".
<0> but If I do with C, I can read the next 5 bytes and set to var1 , next 10 set to var 2 or I can even read and put directly on a struct.
<2> C!=awk
<0> Rado, I know. I just want to know if awk can do something like that. Just because I found a little problem and I want to know if awk can help me faster than coding in C.
<2> Lin, I told you: it can, see "substr".
<3> sheeeeeit
<3> Lin: substr it is
<3> fws[1] = 5; fws[2] = 9; fws[3] = 3; for (x = i = 1; i < length($0); i += fws[++x]) { F[x] = substr($0, i, fws[x]); }
<3> awkbot is dead wtf
<0> hmm
<0> tag, nice code.
<3> awkbot: awkdoc substr
<3> err... other way
<3> awkdoc substr
<4> tag: substr(s, i [, n]) Returns the at most n-character substring of s starting at i. If n is omitted, the rest of s is used.
<3> oh both work
<3> awkbot: bounce!
<3> there she is
<3> awkbot: botsnack
<4> tag: :-)
<3> Lin: it'd be nicer if awk let you define an array all at once ;-)
Return to
#awk
or
