Hi All
Does anyone have any sugestions about how to split an input stream: ie..
There is a continuous data stream coming in the serial port.
There is a LF character at the end of each record.
Ideally, each record should be stored in a separate file for further
processing (these records are rather large)
The question is how to recognise the End-Of-Record character and store all
data from that record in a (uniquely named) file.
There is unique data within each record which could form the basis for the
filename.
Any ideas (sed/awk etc)
Many thanks
Adrian
