Using gawk I want to print all lines in a file except those that have any of
three patterns in field 7. I thought I had the proper syntax but gawk
disagrees and I'm not finding the proper syntax in my awk books or in web
searches. I've tried using if-else (my first choice), as well as negating
the patterns but everything's failed.
Here's the script, drop-1200C.awk:
8< -----
BEGIN { FS=OFS="," }
{ if (/$7 ~ "Gen12c"/ || /$7 ~ "Gen12c(Agent)"/ || /$7 ~ "Gen12u"/)
{ next }
else
{ print $0 > "processed.dat" }
}
-------- >8
And here's a sample input file, sample.dat:
8<---------------
'123095','2842','20/10 Products Inc.','20/10 Products','Salem','Marion','Gen12z'

---------->8
When I run all versions of awk scripts either all lines are output or I get
doubled lines.
What have I missed in writing the gawk script?
