Suppose I have a file named temp.txt
cat temp.txt
word/one/two/three
If I would like to replace "one" with "six" I would do this:
cat temp.txt | sed 's/one/six/'
word/six/two/three
Now I want to replace "one/two" with "six/seven" and these options don't work:
cat temp.txt | sed 's/one/two/six/seven/' (OFCOURSE)
cat temp.txt | sed 's/"one/two"/"six/seven"/'
I even want to be able to replace "one/two" with "six/seven/eight"

I've been trying to understand pthread in C a little better. So I made a simple program that takes in a string from the command line and creates a thread to print the string. I've looked online and copied the basic concepts but there are something things I'm confused about. The programs works just fine, but I have questions. Here's what I have so far.
[Code]....
One thing I'd like to know is why the 3rd argument in the pthread_create function which is my SendMessage function needs to be typecasted to a void pointer and then send the address of the function. Also as for the 4th argument, I would see typecasting to void pointer in some of the pthread examples I saw online, but in my case I'm passing a char pointer, would this be correct? In which case would I ever want to pass a void pointer?
Do I need a pthread_exit(NULL) in my main and in the SendMessage function? If so, why? I added the sleep() function so that I could let the pthread_exit function in my SendMessage function execute first. I simply saw that the online examples on pthread had pthread_exit() in both locations.

So if I'm given a location of a file like:
How can I just take the type of the file at the end? I know I can use strrchr() for a period to get the pointer to the period just before file type. Is there a build in string function that will just take the rest of the string from a certain point on forward in the string? I know it wouldn't be much work to make it myself, but I figured I would find out if it already existed before doing it.

I'm writing a script to replace some text that exists in about 50 .lex, .y, and .cc source code files, sometimes more than once in a file. Sometimes the text is in a multiline C comment, and other times it's within a multiline C string.
I use sed to grab the start and end of each line and wrap the new text in the old whitespace and/or quotes and Problem is, sed is changing the characters into a newline.
Is there a way to tell sed to not process escape sequences? I tried using several variations of
Code:
To no avail. Or could it be bash?
I would give up on the script and do it by hand, but this is something that I must do from time to time.
Here's the function which replaces the first occurrence found:
Code:
When $post is printed by echo, it shows the - but by the time the file is on disk, it becomes a newline. What should I do to ensure that it stays as the characters ?

Been at this all morning and fail on every attempt.
I have a file called sitemapindex.xml
Its contents just are names of the other sitemaps. Google gets pissy because it isn't in a http:// format.
So, I need "<loc>sitemap-c1mediawiki-............</loc>" to be replaced with "<loc>http://domain.tld/sitemap-c1mediawiki-............</loc>".
Here's the expression I've been trying:
find /path/to/site/sitemap-index-c1mediawiki* -type f | xargs sed -i 's/[<loc>sitemap]/[<loc>http://domain.tld/]/'
It fails.
I've tried with and without brackets.

I'm having problems completing my school exercises with awk.
Heres the desired outcome:
Code:
./my_awk 2
ACG GAG ATT AGG AGG ATC CCA CCA
CAC AGG ACG GAG ATT AGG AGG ATC
So it generates data in group of threes, 8 groups per row and prints it. My problem is that I can't seem to get awk to append stuff to string so I could print it nicely to screen. It just prints empty lines per the parameter given to it.
Heres my code so far:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
awk -v rows=$1 '
