Cyngus shell question


This script isn't working for some reason and I don't understand why.

awk 'BEGIN {FIELDWIDTHS = "31 8 41"} $1 ~ "^5" {seqid[NR - 2] = $2} END {for
(i = NR - 4; i > 0; i-- ) print seqid[i] }' %1



When I run it - it doesn't return anything - and - it echo's a script that
is different than the one I'm trying to run


		C:\scripts>awk 'BEGIN {FIELDWIDTHS = "31 8 41"} $1 ~ "^5"
{seqid[NR - 2] = $2} END {for (i = NR - 4; i ; i-- ) print seqid[i] }' 365
		1_taptran_savings.txt 1>0


It may be that the shell is seeing the ">" symbol as a re-direct symbol
instead of as a 'greater than' symbol.   I'm not sure how to get the shell
to recognize this as a greater than symbol.  Can someone help - or re-direct
me (ha) to someone who can answer my question?

Thanks,
Gerald LeRoy
