Hi Rayson,
Thanks for your reply. I have tried using -v to pass variables to
awk, but
it is not working correctly. I think it's because my script
requires all
variables to be escaped and I don't know how to pass the escape
symbol
correctly.
line2=$(awk -v "task_id=$SGE_TASK_ID" 'NR==task_id' "/myPath/
fileList.txt" )
echo \$line2
has a blank output, but so does
line2=$(awk -v "task_id=\$SGE_TASK_ID" 'NR==task_id' "/myPath/
fileList.txt"
)
echo \$line2
Can you give me any insight into passing the escape sign or why I
am needing
to escape all the variables in my script?
Thanks,
Sara
