.TH col1 1 "27 Sep 2010" byobu "byobu"
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
col1 .. col9, NF \- awk and print a column (based on the name of the program, 1-9)
|
|
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.BI "col1 [SEPARATOR]"
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
\fBcol1\fP is a simple script that conveniently splits and prints a given column, where the column to print is the name of the script program you're running (col1-col9). col2-col9 are symlinks to col1; their behavior simply changes based on the name called.
|
|
|
|
\fBNF\fP can be used to print the last field.
|
|
|
|
The program takes one optional argument, the input field separator (whitespace, by default).
|
|
|
|
.SH EXAMPLES
|
|
Rather than:
|
|
mount | awk '{print $3}'
|
|
|
|
Try:
|
|
mount | col3
|
|
|
|
Instead of:
|
|
cat /etc/passwd | awk \-F":" '{print $7}'
|
|
|
|
You can just do:
|
|
cat /etc/passwd | col7 :
|
|
|
|
Or
|
|
cat /etc/passwd | NF :
|
|
|
|
