Well, I've got a tab delimited file and want to get one of the columns from it. I'm betting that even with the Satimage osax you can't get more terse than this:

awk '{ FS = " " } ; {print $3}' b.txt > c.txt 

Betting how much?

cut -f 3 < b.txt > c.txt

:-)

Okay. That's terser. 

Terseness vs legibility ...

extractcolumn 3 from f -- uses Satimage osax
