| Jan 13, 2022 at 7:01 | comment | added | αғsнιη | about awk '/Dansk/{a=1}/Norsk/{b=1}/Svenska/{c=1}{ if (a || b || c ) print NR, $0}'you can just doawk '/Dansk|Norsk|Svenska/{print NR, $0}', but I really don't know what are you trying to do here at all. what is your question and goal now? | |

| Jan 13, 2022 at 6:36 | comment | added | αғsнιη | you changed your command and now you are expecting to see the same result as rg returns?! no, you are going in wrong way. In one of your previous question I answered what does 1means in awk, but sounds you didn't learn it. you need improve your reading | |
| Jan 13, 2022 at 6:35 | comment | added | jian | @αғsнιη to clarify my question. to emulate rg  'Dansk|Norsk|Svenska' file3command which return ` Subtitle: 04, Language: da - Dansk, Content: Undefined, Stream id: 0x23,` but now myawkidea return the matched line and the next line. I only want matched line. now I don't know how to improve it. | |
| Jan 13, 2022 at 6:29 | comment | added | αғsнιη | x||y||z||...means "if x OR y OR z OR ... were True" then do something.x&&y&&z&&...means "if x AND y AND z AND ... all were True" then do something."True" means a result of an expression or condition evaluated true. I believe you strongly need to start first reading some basics of awk commnad. | |
| Jan 13, 2022 at 6:25 | comment | added | jian | @αғsнιη I am almost close. I get the matched line and the next line. I don't want next line. see my updates. | |
