Hi,
Please let me know how do we write a piece of code to extract characters from a line using SED.
Are you meaning this type of extractions??
1)
$ echo "Red Hat Linux release 7.2 (Enigma)"
Red Hat Linux release 7.2 (Enigma)
**To extract the 7.2 from the above string
$ echo "Red Hat Linux release 7.2 (Enigma)" | sed 's/Red Hat Linux release \([0-9].*[0-9]\).*/\1/g'
7.2
2)
$ id | sed 's/uid=\([0-9]*\).*/\1/g'
64592
3)
$ echo "jadu[1023]" | sed 's/jadu\[\([0-9]*\).*\]/\1/g'
1023
Two same posts in the same forum.
Was that by mistake ?
