awk - add column of 1's to tab-delimited file -
can't find solution, though thousands of variations of question have been asked. i want add column of 1's tab-delimited file using awk or sed. the file have 20 million lines, efficient nice. turn this: a b c r j k t w into this: a b c 1 r j k 1 t w 1 assuming used awk -f'\t' instead of awk : { print $0 fs 1; } if didn't use -f option, replace fs 1 "\t1" .
