I have a tab-delimited file containing email addresses in the second field. I want to find those addresses whose localpart is longer than 8 characters and handle them separately. I tried this, but it did not work. It complained of a missing delimiter.
pipe (endchar ?) ... | a: nlocate fs 05 ws @ substr w1 of f2 9 <here i expected to have the ones <=8 characters ... ? a: <here i expected to have the ones >8 characters> ... Where am I going wrong? -- bc
