Been curious to see if can filter out my access.log file and output a list of my twtxt followers just in case I’ve missed someone … I came up with this awk -F '\"' '/twtxt/ {print $(NF-1)}' /var/log/user.log | grep -v 'twtxt\.net' | sort -u | awk '{print $(NF-1) $NF}' | awk '/^\(/' spaghetti monster of a command and I’m wondering if there’s a more elegant way for achieving the same thing.

I remember having seen one somewhere but can’t remember where.

@prologic@twtxt.net yeah I’ve played with it for a bit and read through the code hoping I could steal some of your regex. I’m trying to up my awk(1p) game but failing miserably. 😆

@prologic@twtxt.net hmm, it sounds like homework! 🤔 I’m IN!! 😂
