Hi all,
I'm struggling with this task and have done alot of googling but not found the solution or atleast not found a way to combine them, i'm hoping someone here can help me out.
I have a file that contains many line of config "below is two lines for an example"
323 => 1111,Terry berry home,,,sdfoijdsfiovjfdv
567 => 1111,dim tim work,,,sdfoijdsfiovjfdv
i'm trying to find a way to get the first numbers and then the text between the (,)
the result I want would be :
323 Terry berry
567 dim tim
I have had success at doing both with some awk and cut but i'm not able to get them to combine.
I can cut or awk $1 which gives me the number = great but then I can't get the nice name format.
or
I can get the nice name format but not have the numbers at the beginning
awk -F',' '{print $2}' /vm.txt | awk '{print $1" "$2;}'
I kind of think the hard bit is done and I just need to stick something to grab $1
any takers ?
