After looking through some resources I cannot find the answer on how to do
this with sed :
I have a sample file with the following in it:
good the bad and ugly
Each time this file gets created it will have a different 3rd word, but the
3rd word is always the one I want to extract.
So, I would like to sed the file and extract just the 3rd word ?
I can only see how to extract lines of information like:
sed -e '/b/!d' mush
returns the whole line ?
BTW: sed and awk are my only options on this one.
TIA
