Re: [PLUG] egrep help

[Ugarit Ebla <ugaritebla@gmail.com>]

if the file content is something like

1|192.168.0.102||xyz|abc

where the ip address is always in the second column then do

cat *.csv | cut -d\| -f2 \
  | sort -t . -k 1,1n -k 2,2n -k 3,3n -k 4,4n (from JPVossen's email)

Hi, I'm trying to grep a CSV for an IP address followed by ||

I tried grep Developer *.csv | egrep \|*\.*\.*\.*\|\||head

but this is not working, it is picking up false positives, what I am looking for specifically is an IP address followed by || in the csv.  I am working on trying to teach myself regular expressions now but I am just in the beginning stages.  Any help would be appreciated.
