Hi, I'd like to generate the following awk script, where an array of number (such as 1,3 in the following example) should be taken from the command line. I am not familiar with m4 to make this work especially for an array in the command line argument.
Could anybody help show me a working m4 example to generate an awk script like this? Thanks. ============== BEGIN { if(getline) { key1 = $1 # These two lines should be expanded key3 = $3 # according to the command line arguments value = $10 seen_first = 1 } } { if(key1==$1 && key3==$3) { # The above line should be expanded # according to the command line arguments value = value "," $10 } else { print key, value key1 = $1 # This block should be expanded key3 = $3 # according to the command line arguments value = $10 } } END { if(seen_first) { print key1, key3, value # The above line should be expanded # according to the command line arguments } } ============== -- Regards, Peng
