hi i am new to shell scripting,
i have been trying to cut columns numbered 1,4 of a file consisiting of 4 columns. Each column is seperated by 2 spaces.
for example:
john 6102097199 tennessee usa
michel 6734590899 texas USA
now, i need to cut the name and country column and paste it in another file.
I used the delimiter with 2 spaces using 'cut' function and pasted using 'paste' function to paste it in another file. But, this did'nt work
CAN ANYONE PLEASE HELP ME OUT WITH THIS?????????????????????
