I have a bash script which calls a awk script to print each line from the file name_list.txt
#!/bin/bash awk -f parse_list.awk name_list.txt In the awk script, I am using getline with NR to print each record as below:
#!/usr/bin/awk BEGIN { line = "" } NR != 0 { print NR getline line print line } Suppose name_list.txt is as shown below:
aaaaaaaaaaa bbbbbbbbbb cccccccccc ddddddddddd eeeeeeeee ffffffffff gggggggg When I execute this script, I was expecting the content of name_list.txt along with the line number to be printed on console, but when I execute it, getline and/or print skips one line, so the output is always.
1 bbbbbbbbbb 3 ddddddddddd 5 ffffffffff 7 ffffffffff Can anyone please tell me if I am using NR and getline properly. I need both the shell script and awk script, I don't want to combine them. Can anyone please help ?
