grep the contents

[syedar]

Hi all,

I have a file (T1.txt) which contains below information, i just need to get all "/a1" information and it's Number of records.
Please help me to get this output -Thanks.

OUTFILE 1: /a1
Number of records = 1319
OUTFILE 2: /a2
Number of records = 1319
OUTFILE 3: /a1
Number of records = 1561

If there is only 1 /a1 ref and its at the top in the file then a simple cat T1.txt | head -2 would work.

This may be more useful...

cat T1.txt | awk '/\/a1/, /Number/ {print $0}'

Hi:

# perl -ne 'm{/a1}...{Number} and print' file
