Token.sh (GPL)

Token.sh is a command-line shell script utility that will help you parse tokens from a line of input. The tokens are delimited by white spaces (any number of spaces and tabs). You can pipe any line of text into Token.sh with a command-line argument of which token you want, and Token.sh will return the token at your specified location. If the specified location is greater than the number of token passed in, then Token.sh will return nothing.

Token.sh is distributed as executable source code under the GNU General Public License. Please see the license agreement elsewhere on this site.

  echo "He worked steadily there that summer." | Token.sh 4

  echo "He      worked    steadily there     that     summer." | Token.sh 6
