Second edition of The AWK Programming Language just came out btw. Thanks for the tutorial!

[@EarthlyTech]

Great book! I wonder what they changed?

[@kazeko0]

Very concise and to the point. Thank you so much!

[@alik.ebrahim2043]

Thanks Adam (I hope I got that correctly). This one's a nugget for someone like me who's just trying to get into the command line environment. Thanks for all the examples, they made awk capabilities very clear.. it's a great introduction. Hope to see more of such topics

[@EarthlyTech]

Very welcome!

[@robertbatista50]

Very thorough. How do you use the next statement in the { } that is not the BEGIN or END? I’m using bash and it does not work. I’ve taken the example from the book “sed & awk” by Dale and Arnold page 156.

I have been parsing raw text data from multiple sources for different data projects in Python for 6 years now. Its not bad, but AWK is better for lots of them. Thanks for the tutorial!

[@EarthlyTech]

Thanks for sharing! yeah, at certain tasks sizes AWK is a great fit. Python is still great past a certain size though.

In 2024…. Awk is 47 years old!!! Exciting old program!

[@EarthlyTech]

Still going strong!

How do you get the entire bottom bar to change colour for each vim mode? Mine doesn’t do that. Can we configure that in the vim plugin?

[@EarthlyTech]

I think its vim.statusBarColorControl

Thank you for the video. Could you please share the aws link for downloading the data mentioned in the video (4:54min) to help try along. Trying to access it seems to give access denied error
