Hallo, my SO friend, my question is:
Specification: annotate the fields of FILE_2 to the corresponding position of FILE_1.
A field is marked, and hence identified, by a delimiter pair.
I did this job in python before I knew awk and sed, with a couple hundred lines of code.
Now I want to see how powerful and efficient awk and sed can be.
Show me some masterpiece of awk or sed, please!
The delimiter pairs can be configured in FILE_3, but let's assume the first delimiter in a pair is 'Marker (number i) start', the other one is 'Marker (number i) done'
Example:
|-----------------FILE_1------------------|
text text text
text blabla
Marker_1_start
Marker_1_done
any text
in between blabla
Marker_2_start
Marker_2_done
text text
|-----------------FILE_2------------------|
Marker_1_start
11
1111
Marker_1_done
Marker_2_start
2222
22
Marker_2_done
Expected Output:
|-----------------FILE_Out------------------|
text text text
text blabla
Marker_1_start
11
1111
Marker_1_done
any text
in between blabla
Marker_2_start
2222
22
Marker_2_done
text text
