No need for the pipe, since awk can read a file directly. For a small
economy, use
awk -F: '{ print $1 }' usefile
instead.

I got several replies, and thanks everyone !:)
Are there any other \ functions I should know about? I already use
\ to 'ignore' certain characters @'s and such.. any other useful ones? :)

Hey,
Try this:
---cut here
#!/bin/sh
echo "hello\c"
echo "\t\c"
echo "there"
echo "\n"
---cut here
The \t echoes a tab character; the \c supresses the newline that would
otherwise be added.
Hope that helps...
