I agree with Sam that you aren't providing enough info. I think
you're saying you're essentially doing (in gawk):
print $1 $2 > "tmptmp.txt";
print "#" > "tmptmp.txt";
And ending up with a "^M" in your file. First off, the second line
would overwrite anything you did in the first line (you need to use a
">>" to APPEND data to an existing file...just like in the shell), and
the "^M" probably indicates a carriage return in the file. If you
changed the ORS (output record separator) to a carriage return from it's
default value of newline, that's what you'd get.
Patrick, this isn't the first time (or second or third) you've posted
a question with absolutely no context about what you're trying to do.
If you want help, you HAVE to tell us what you're trying to accomplish.
