Unix Question....
 

Hi guys, I like to display/print a specific number from a file with unix command. how do I do that? (not in vi editor)

For example, all I know is line number...e.g.: 2314th line. File is huge like 3gig. I wanna see just one line. Which unix command(s) can show me that?

thanks

tail -2314 [file] | head -n 1

That'd pull the last 2314 lines of the file, and print the first one in that list. So I think you'd want to use that backwards, head -2314 [file] | tail -1

Guys. thank you so much. you saved me a lot. BOTH WORKS FOR ME!!
