Are there available repositories of working, complex awk scripts for manipulating large text files? These are not related to system or network administration, but general business information.
I frequently have large lists, such as names and addresses, that need to be re-organized (e.g., grouped by county) or reformatted (e.g., for insertion into database tables). It is really time consuming to do all this manually and I'm not sufficiently experienced writing complex awk scripts to know where to begin writing my own. If there are libraries of such scripts I might find one that does what I need in any given situation, or find several that I can glue together to accomplish what needs to be done.
