Hi,

I have a variable

ARGS=-start,0x7fffffffffffff1f,0x0000000000000000,{RAW}.*

I would like to extract the following string 0x7fffffffffffff1f,0x0000000000000000,{RAW}.* and further place the string in three different variables as follows

ARGS1=0x7fffffffffffff1f
ARGS2=0x0000000000000000
ARGS3={RAW}.*

P.S: I would wish to extract the string specifiying the starting character as '0'.

Regards
Peru

Using comma as a separator:

$ ARGS="-start,0x7fffffffffffff1f,0x0000000000000000,{RAW}.*"
$ ifs="$IFS"; set -f; IFS=,;set -- $ARGS; set +f; IFS="$ifs"
$ ARGS1="$2" ARGS2="$3" ARGS3="$4"
$ printf "%s\n" "$ARGS1" "$ARGS2" "$ARGS3"
0x7fffffffffffff1f
0x0000000000000000
{RAW}.*
