what i need?
Shell script has to check for each log line starting word with "$GPRMC", if line starts with $GPRMC, then that line has to append a new file data.txt

For example:

when i started the gps receiver log is giving
first line: Trying 127.0.0.1... has to check whether it is started with $GPRMC
then when the second line came log again has to check..like...up to terminating the log.
this process has to start when the log started...

if the line starts with $GPRMC the line has to append new line...

thanks in advance,

sravan

Please give this a try.

Code:

cat gps_log_file | grep GPRMC > data.txt

This will generate the following from your test data:

Code:

shine:bin jasonralph$ cat data1 | grep GPRMC 
$GPRMC,111503,A,0833.6323,N,07652.7685,E,0.1866,25 6.540,220609,,*2A
$GPRMC,111504,A,0833.6316,N,07652.7682,E,0.1866,25 6.540,220609,,*2C
$GPRMC,111505,A,0833.6328,N,07652.7684,E,0.1488,23 8.090,220609,,*2A
$GPRMC,111506,A,0833.6336,N,07652.7654,E,0.1866,25 6.540,220609,,*27
$GPRMC,111507,A,0833.6341,N,07652.7644,E,0.1866,25 6.540,220609,,*27

I created a file called data1 with your test data for the input file. Of course swap data1 file out for your log file.

Good Luck

Code:

cat gps_log_file | grep GPRMC >> data.txt

If you need to append to the same file use the double redirection.
