General :: SED - Substitute A Word Only In A Certain Line

Feb 2, 2010

I tried to use the command:

sed -i ''$line_number',/port/s/port/portMARKED/' file

to substitute the word "port" by the word "portMARKED" at the specific line that is saved in "line_number". The substitution happens, but it is copying my line twice... and I have no idea why... I need to make a single substitution of one word for another at a certain line in my text file. Would somebody know how I could do that?

I have a file which a number at the end of each line. I need to change this number in the file to be correct, i.e. each time the number is 9 it needs to be 1, each time it is 233 it needs to be 2, etc... There is no pattern to the numbers currently in the list other than the same number appears only in a single line/group of lines, not throughout the file, but the replacements need to be sequential (but can be repeated an arbitrary number of times).

Programming :: Check Command Line For A Word?

May 23, 2010

I'm building a script for my place of employment. The next step in it is checking what the user input was. Determining if they added a part in there or not. The script prompts for a hostname. Hostnames are localhost.localdomain. Now, I want the script to check to see if they put localdomain and if they did, not to add the domain to the /etc/sysconfig/network, but just what they entered. So say the user inputs:

General :: Substitute In A File When Sed And Awk Both Fail ?

Jun 5, 2011

I have tried making this substitution using both of

Code:

Sed operates with no comment but does nothing. awk objects to the variables content because they include the occasional non-breaking-space. The presence of these is essential so that bash will properly distribute the content of each line to an array.

The content of "orc" and "orch" is as follows (the non-breaking-spaces show as *).

General :: Extract The First Word Following A String?

Aug 22, 2010

I need a bash script that can read a file, say example.txt search for the string "This is my example string" and save whatever word/number comes immediately after it to a variable, var.

Example:
blah blah
blah This is my example string extracthere is a very nice word.
blah blah

There are two constraints:1. This needs to assume as little as possible about the nature of the known string "This is my example string" and the word that follows it. I am trying to keep my code adaptable.2. Speed is valuable. This shell will be executed dozens if not hundreds of times so speed is very desirable. I thought I read that some commands are faster than others.
