      By Byte

      The -b list or -bytes=list option cuts the specified list of bytes from the input file. (The format of list is described shortly.)

      By Character

      The -c list or -characters=list option cuts the specified list of characters from the input file. In practice, this method and the by-byte method usually produce identical results. (If the input file uses a multibyte encoding system, though, the results won't be identical.)

      By Field

      The -f list or -fields=list option cuts the specified list of fields from the input file. By default, a field is a tab-delimited section of a line, but you can change the delimiting character with the -d char, -delim=char, or -delimiter=char option, where char is the character you want to use to delimit fields. Ordinarily, cut echoes lines that don't contain delimiters. Including the -s or -only-delimited option changes this behavior so that the program doesn't echo lines that don't contain the delimiter character.
