楼主的提问：

what does print $2 means?

The print $2 part does this.
===================================================

回答：

Say we have a text file containing the following.

bob 23 45 hello
jim 12 88 bye


If we cat the file and do the awk print $2 thing, we get the following out.


23
12

the print $2 part says to the command, show me the 2nd field.

so, if we said：

awk '{print $1, $4}'  

we would get the following.


bob hello
jim bye

Hope that helps
