I have a log file which looks like:
Mar 23 08:20:23 New file got created in sec: 235
Mar 23 08:21:45 New file got created in sec: 127
Mar 23 08:22:34 New file got created in sec: 875
Mar 23 08:25:46 New file got created in sec: 322
Mar 23 08:26:12 New file got created in sec: 639
I need the output to look like:
Mar 23 08:20:23 : 235
Mar 23 08:21:45 : 127
Mar 23 08:22:34 : 875
Mar 23 08:25:46 : 322
Mar 23 08:26:12 : 639
What I am able to do is just grep either first part or the last part of the line. I am not able to put the two together. How can I get the desired output from my input?
