Re^3: Delimited File Analysis One-Liner?

I wonder if there's a way to continue on that same idea (using index) and count delimiters out to a particular column

No. Beyond the first column, -aF, is about as efficient as it gets.

Also, curious about your use of $1.

You need to get a better font! It isn't $1, (one) but rather $l (for length) and $m (for max).

With any reasonable font they should be distinct, but I see it was a bad chioce for posting here.

With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
