Hope this helps.
echo "test" | awk -v mydate=`date +%Y%m%d` '{printf
"standard input is
%s\nmy variable value is %s\n",$1,mydate}'

Hi all
how can I print date in this date format? 20071122
Can command "date, hostname" run in awk program
itself?
program.awk
BEGIN { RS = "\n" ; FS = "|" }
{
print "Name:", $9
print "Created: `date`"
print "from: `hostname`"
print ""
}
Thank you
awk doesn't seem to do backticks. try this:
[summer@potoroo ~]$ echo | awk "{print \"`hostname`\"}"
potoroo.demo.lan
[summer@potoroo ~]$
