Hi Guys,
I have an awk script that would search the input file for line that starts with a number 3 and copies into a new text file.
I want to extend this script to find the lines that either starts with 3 or a or b and copy all those lines into the new file.
Here is what I have so far:
awk '/3/,0' source.txt > target.txt
Can someone please help me with extending this to find lines that start with more than just one character/number?
Just to be more detailed here is how the input file would look like:
3ajdlkfja
4jdlkajfdlajf
jdlkfjalda
phdlkfajlkdj
I want to print lines that start with either 3 or 4 or p. so in the new file, line number 1,2 and 4 should get copied.
Many Thanks.
