Output subset of columns from file

Nice tip to remember: Unix command line tool cut allows to output not only selected columns from file, but also a subset of columns.

Example:

kokonech@ultor:~/playgrnd/scythe$ cut -f 1,2,3,4,5,6 scythe_output/fusions.txt
#ref1 break_pos1 strand1 ref2 break_pos2 strand2
chr20 49446917 + chr17 58761341 +
kokonech@ultor:~/playgrnd/scythe$ cut -f 1-6 scythe_output/fusions.txt
#ref1 break_pos1 strand1 ref2 break_pos2 strand2
chr20 49446917 + chr17 58761341 +
