The ip command has an -o flag for generating output which is more easily
parseable by program (-o means 'oneline'). This means the same can be
accomplished with

----
#!/bin/sh
lineno=${1:-1}
ip -o link | awk "\$2 ~ /^w/{ if (++nr == $lineno) print gensub(\":\", \"\", 1, \$2) }"
----

awk is generally the easiest to use tool if records made up of lines are
supposed to be split into whitespace-separated fields. The code can be
simplified somewhat by not using the awk gensub function to get rid of
the trailing : but the tr command in 'delete characters' mode.

----
#!/bin/sh
lineno=${1:-1}
ip -o link | awk "\$2 ~ /^w/{ if (++nr == $lineno) print \$2 }" | tr -d :
