I am a noob in Linux. I have a file like this:
col1 col2 col3 ID1234567-DNA_A01 chr1_10203040_T/C gene 0 ID1234568-DNA_A02 chr1_10203050_T/A gene 0 ID1234569-DNA_A03 chr1_10203060_A/G gene 0 ID1234570-DNA_A04 chr1_10203070_C/T gene 0
I want to use only the first column and divide each line into 4 columns:
#CHROM POS REF ALT 1 10203040 T C 1 10203050 T A 1 10203060 A G 1 10203070 C T
I tried to make:
awk 'BEGIN{OFS="\t";FS="\t"; print"#CHROM","POS","REF","ALT"} | cut -d'' -f2- {print substr($1,4,1),substr($1,6}' old_file > new_file
I know I did wrong, but any suggestion would be helpful!Thanks
