Hi,
I have a file
1:apple orange:one
2:banana:two
3:cherry:3
When I do awk -F: ' { print $2 } ' file
apple orange
banana
cherry
Now, when i redirect awk output to the file it has issue with strings
#!/bin/bash
FILEA=file
A=(`awk -F: ' { print $2 } ' $FILEA `)
echo ${A[0]}
It gives the output
apple
banana
cherry
Somehow, I lost orange along the way.
Thanks
