I have list of names in a file that I need to create directories from. The list looks like
Ada Lovelace
Jean Bartik
Leah Culver
I need the folders to be the exact same, preserving the whitespace(s). But with
awk '{print $0}' myfile | xargs mkdir
I create separate folders for each word
Ada
Lovelace
Jean
Bartik
Leah
Culver
Same happens with
awk '{print $1 " " $2}' myfile | xargs mkdir
Where is the error?
Using gnu xargs
you can use -d
option to set delimiter as \\n
only. This way you can avoid awk
also.
xargs -d '\n' mkdir -p < file
If you don't have gnu xargs
then you can use tr
to convert all \\n
to \\0
first:
tr '\n' '\0' < file | xargs -0 mkdir
@birgit:尝试:完全基于您提供的示例Input_file。
awk -vs1="\"" 'BEGIN{printf "mkdir ";}{printf("%s%s%s ",s1,$0,s1);} END{print ""}' Input_file | sh
awk '{ system ( sprintf( "mkdir \"%s\"", $0)) }' YourFile
# OR
awk '{ print"mkdir "\"" $0 "\"" | "/bin/sh" }' YourFile
# OR for 1 subshell
awk '{ Cmd = sprintf( "%s%smkdir \"%s\"", Cmd, (NR==1?"":"\n"), $0) } END { system ( Cmd ) }' YourFile
