title: How to read specific line and specific position?
body: <p>I have a problem reading a string in specific line and specific position. I have an input file that has a fixed position and fixed length for each value in every row. This is an example of my input file:</p>
  
  <pre><code>sltele     Hoodie   24051988 d12Hdq
  sltele     Hoodie   07051987 d30Hdq
  sltele     Hoodie   07082011 d08Hdq
  sltele     Hoodie   09081961 d04Hdq
  sltele     Hoodie   20041962 d14Hdq
  sltele     Hoodie   20032000 d01Hdq
  sltele     Hoodie   13062002 d05Hdq
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I need to read a string in 3rd column in first line. So, I used this </p>
  
  <pre><code>awk 'NR==1 {print $2, $3}' inputfile.inp
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How can I get an exact result with character position as parameter? (12nd-18th and 21st-28th)</p>
