Is it possible to do something like this:
$ cat foo.txt
1 2 3 4
foo bar baz
hello world
$ awk '{ for(i in $){ print $[i]; } }' foo.txt
1
2
3
4
foo
bar
baz
hello
world
I know you could do this:
$ awk '{ split($0,array," "); for(i in array){ print array[i]; } }' foo.txt
2
3
4
1
bar
baz
foo
world
hello
But then the result is not in order.
