It is difficult to answer the question without knowing "what" you want to trim.

A common command would be 'cut' to cut out columns you don't want.

What is a filter in Unix?

A Unix filter is a command pattern that allows the output of one command to be "piped" into the input of the next command. Commands like 'ls' which list a directory are not filters since they only generate output. Filter examples are grep, sed, sort, uniq, awk. Commands in Unix are usually filters unless they only create output, like 'ls', 'vi', etc.

When running commands such as ipconfig or tracert saved in a .bat file how do I save the output. FYI I am using notepad?

Use "> xxx.xxx" after the name of the .bat file on the command line to save the output in file xxx.xxx Example: myscript.bat > myoutput.txt This runs the commands in the file myscript.bat, but instead of printing the output on the screen saves the output to the file myoutput.txt Note that this command syntax is used in Unix (Unix probably copied it from Multics) and Microsoft added it to MSDOS along with lots of other Unix like features at some point, because of their usefulness (you could not do this with early versions of MSDOS which was based on CP/M-86 which borrowed the syntax of one of the DEC PDP-8 OSs; none of which could redirect program output to files).


What is the code to change the font of the output in c plus plus?

There is no generic code to change the typeface of the console output, nor indeed any output window. To change the typeface you must use platform-specific code. That is, the code required to change the output typeface in Windows is completely different to that of Unix-based systems.


What is pipe Command in unix?

A "pipe" is where output is redirected to another program. It exists in Windows as well as Unix (although you don't see much of it in Windows usage).The character used in piping is the pipe character ('|').For example, you wanted to create a MD5 hash of the message "Hello World!" you'd do echo "Hello World!" | md5sum. The echo command will output "Hello World" to standard output (also called stdout), and the pipe will redirect that to the md5sum utility, which will calculate the MD5 hash from the output as input.
