Yo;
I have a series of comma-delimited text files with fourteen columns of
data and several hundred rows. I want to use a short shell script to
strip them of the last 9 columns, leaving the same file but with just
five of its columns. I can do it in C++, but that seems like
overkill. How would I go about doing it with sed or a similar
utility?
See cut(1):
cut -d, -f1,2,3,4,5
