Hi,

I need to do something as below:

george, john, mckay delete all here

everything from delete should be deleted, the out put should be,

george, john, mckay

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

echo 'george, john, mckay delete all here' | sed -e 's/\(.*\) delete .*/\1/g'

This works perfectly...I am too weak at shell script could you help me with another problem...

I have a file like below:

gina, crab.george, john, joe, crab.mckay

Get rid of the 'crab.' and sort the rest of the output. I expect the output to be like:

george, gina, joe, john, mckay

Thanks for all your help.
