Hello Experts,

I need little help with parsing.
I want to parse filename and one level up directory name.
sample $1 will consists of
/home/username/ABC1/rstfiles4.log
/home/username/ABC4/rstfiles2.log
/home/username/EDC7/rstfiles23.log
/home/username/EDC6/rstfiles55.log
/home/username/rstfiles15.log

So in this i want to parse like
ABC,rst*.log
EDC,rst*.log
,rst.log

Please help me to get this output.

Thanks in advance!!

/home/username/ABC4/rstfiles2.log
/home/username/EDC7/rstfiles23.log
/home/username/EDC6/rstfiles55.log
/home/username/rstfiles15.log

$ sed 's:^/home/username/::' test.in |
sed 's:^\(...\).*/:\1,:' |
sed 's:\,\(...\)[^.]*:,\1*:' |

Thanks Chubler_XL..
my path is not fixed. my script takes path as input parameter...
and that path contains the common characters like
any path/ABC*/rst*.log
any path/EDC*/rst*.log
any path/rst*.log

Becuase after getting this,ABC* or EDC* i will need to perform action on that like ABC.* == ABC.* then direct it ot csv file

If you can give some idea..will be greatful

This should work for you then, path is in variable mypath (without trailing slash):

sed "s:^${mypath}/::" test.in |
sed 's:^\(...\).*/:\1,:' |
sed 's:\,\(...\)[^.]*:,\1*:' |
sed 's:^\([^,][^,][^,]\)[^,]*\.:,\1.:' | uniq

I am getting the below output:

exp,201*.
exp,201*
exp,201*.
exp,or .
exp,201.
exp,201*
exp,201*.
exp,201*

that is first 3 character of path and then last 3 character of $1 appended by *.

assuming you put everything into a file, exactly as you describe.

for i in `cat filename`
do
   BASE=`basename $i`
   DIR=`dirname $i | xargs basename`
   echo $DIR "," $BASE
done

Isn't that what you asked for in your original post? What exactly do you want?
