Brilliant, today at work I have been tasked with parsing data from daily bid logs from DLA. In the txt file the NSN # is continuous with the bid request #. I knew there was a command I could use to pull the number out. I was like 'hmm how could I cut the number of that string' Doh. Now I can use grep to parse only the DLA FSC's I am interested in, use the 'cut' command to cut out the NSN's, then output them to a text file I can then paste those into the FLIS database to extract the MLC dates and prices. Brilliant Jay, just brilliant. I am going to look like I actually know what I am doing at work!
OMG! I came here for you to teach me Windoze!!!! (j/k) Great video as always, Jay. "Do one thing and do it well," and you have done it again with explaining the cut command. Thank you.
Hi Jay! I've been a subscriber to your channel for a while now, and I know you've mentioned CEPH a few times in the past. I was wondering if you have plans to do a training video on CEPH in the future? I just attended an amazing CEPH presentation, and it has ignited my interest in the technology. I'm now super excited about it. Your video series has been incredibly helpful for me in learning, and I would love to add CEPH to my HA Proxmox cluster that you helped me to build by the way. Please let us know when you have time. I absolutely love your channel, and you are a phenomenal teacher. Keep up the fantastic work!
Very great video, I must subscribe. I know the cut command, just wish to see something new that I didn't know, like I would have love to see how you will use the command for just one line on /etc/passwd 🙂
Greattings . I used "cut -d " " -f 9,2 message.txt" and the prompt output was "Linux Wow!" instead of "Wow! Linux". How I can chance the order of output?
Please can somebody explain why Linux still uses Microsoft DOS type commands. Is it still necessary to know these command line when there are graphical user interfaces?
Your point is only valid for desktop. Usually servers dont have GUI. Their only connection available is through ssh which is command line only. You can still use GUI but is not the Best Also usually GUI doesnt support all the options available on parameters. And last but not least, automatization is only possible through command line by scripts
Software developers often work only in the terminal emulator and Servers often doesn't have GUI. Btw also the windows server doesn't have a GUI, so you have to user CMD or Powershell

Absolutely love these crash courses 🙏

Thanks!!! I have never thought that "cut" could be so interesting
Great tutorial as always. Thanks Jay
Jay you learned me some new stuff! I have used the cut command many times, but always for fields, I didn't know that character and byte were options.
cut -b 7-11,56-61 message.txt
you could do without additional number and comma in an example at 8 minute mark 🙂
Maybe you could show
sort and column commands
For the next chapter
You should make a video on the lsof command, I noticed it wasn’t listed in your book either.

I don't want to be negative here, but I've used the cut command a lot.... bad joke... heh Great video.
Thank you, very instructive.
Thank you so much for your help.
How to use tail command and cut using pipe.Where I can leave the header from file

Can you help me to follow complete Linux course
there's a whole playlist for that
THANKS

You can't change the order with the cut command. You would need to use awk to do that.
Thank you

Very often the command line functions are more powerful and more efficient than using the graphical interface.
