I have a command I execute:
awk 'BEGIN { ORS=" " } { print """ $1 """ }' input_file
which gives me exactly what I need, all field one's in quotes on one line each separated by one space. I now need to print a single quote around all of this, but the ORS flag is screwing me up, it's causing every attempt I try to repeat for every record.
Anyone got a pointer how to do this?
Thanks! jlc
