I'm trying to retrieve the the matching lines from a file, however the file that has the "index" or list of matches to retrieve also has duplicate entries and I want to print out the duplicates as well.
Example:
File 1 (index file or list of strings to match)
abc
tgf
abc
ggg
aaa
fff
File 2 (what I want to retrieve for each of the matches in file 1)
Fred 1 3 abc
Amy 2 4 ggg
Dan 5 6 tgf
Mike 9 1 fff
Steve 2 1 aaa
My desired result would be (order is not important, just that I match every line):
Fred 1 3 abc
Dan 5 6 tgf
Fred 1 3 abc
Amy 2 4 ggg
Steve 2 1 aaa
Mike 9 1 fff
I'm familiar and have tried grep as follows, but it does not print the duplicate entries.
grep -Fwf file1.txt file2.txt
Fred 1 3 abc
Amy 2 4 ggg
Dan 5 6 tgf
Mike 9 1 fff
Steve 2 1 aaa
