Greetings,

I have exported my putty sessions on my windows box to a .reg file. For each server entry, I need to pull session name and host name. I am able to get this info but have been unable to combine the results on one line.

The closest I have gotten is:

The results of session and hostname are on separate lines in STDOUT.

I need to:

a. join each match of session and hostname onto one line
b. either before or after the join, I need to run cut or awk to print only the fields I need
c. once I have done a & b, I want it to echo each match one at a time. perhaps print one line of session/hostname then wait for the "any key" to be pressed before presenting the next result.

Thank you in advanced for your assistance!

Best regards,
Brenden

Hi,

Providing a sample of your sourcefile would help figure how to handle the job.

anyway, I guess I'd pick sed to do a & b, and feed an array.

the c part could be a for-loop:

Thank you for your reply.

The reason for not posting my source is because it wasn't producing results near to what I was looking for. It would print all of the sessions first then all of the hostnames. The grep command I posted was the closest as it would print the session and corresponding hostname, just not on the same line.

I will give this a shot and see how it goes!
