Hi everyone!
I have a file like that:
And I would it like that:
I don't know how to keep the first field and sort the second one.
I have a second question with sed...
to put the variable $VAR at the beginning of the file...
But I have an output like this:

I'm confused...
Thanks a lot for your answers
For the first one...

for 1st, one possible solution,
for Mon in Jan Feb Mar Apr Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec; do grep "$Mon" file | sort -n -t: -k2; done
Though, we can expect some better solution.
for second, use double quotes instead single.
