Hi there
I am writing my first script with awk
I'd like to assign a field value returned by awk to $location
Of course the following does not work... though the line
find -path '*.doc' | awk --field-separator=/ '{print $3}'
displays the proper value.
Any help somebody ?
Thanks a lot
Edouard
#!/bin/bash
IFS=$(echo -e "\n\r\t")
for nom_file in `find /home -path '*.doc'`;
do
find /home -path '*.doc' | awk --field-separator=/ '{$3}'=$location
catdoc "${nom_file}" > "/home/$location/$(basename ${nom_file} .doc).txt"
done
