Line Splitting

Something like

Code:

sed 's/\(........\)\(......\)\(......\)\(......\)\(......\)\(......\)\(......\)/\1\n\2\n\3\n\4\n\5\n\6\n\7\n\n/' filename

?
Personally I find it ugly ;}

Cheers,
Tink

Thank you very much. Might be ugly but I should start off with the basics.

Now I'm really getting into this, is there a way to put an extra character next to the ones that exsists and make a space?

For example

from this:

96000123
01FXTF
02FTXT
03FFTF
04TFXX
05TXFF
06TTTT

to:

96000123
01 FF XF TT FF
02 FF TT XF TT
03 FF FT TT FF
04 TF FT XT XT
05 TF XF FT FF
06 TT TF TF TF

If you don't do the assignment by tomorrow would that mean you will fail the unit?

Nice

evoGage · 12-01-2005, 11:41 AM

lol I know people will say that. It may look fishy but I'm doing this for myself as this will be the only way I get help from people on here. I'm 16 yr old so kinda too young for uni.

How can you be 16 years old and doing what Im doing this is clearly plagiarism. Why wont you post the whole assignment on to here instead of doing it in bits and waiting for the answers. Lol

Read the notes and you might learn something..

Sure ... take my statement, and introduce a couple more braces...
Oh, wait. No, you'd be getting more than 10 replacement strings.
Go with the awk solution ;)

No offence but just because I have an intrest in unix programming, does it automatically make me a student who is studying unix?

Yogiz · 12-01-2005, 11:55 AM
