It's been covered in lots of places, and I have banged on it for about an hour and I am not making any headway on this particular string.
A weather-related web page I want to monitor has text on the screen, but it changes. Right now, the page has "None issued by this office recently." but in 2 hours it could say "Noah, Build me an ark". So to get around the "None issued by this office recently." blurb, I though I'd use "sed /from/,/to/..." but I am stuck on all the escapes and :[blank]s.
These are the elements that I "think" will do what I need for the "sed /from/,/to/"
I used
on 2 web pages that have weather data/content and that works wonderfully.
I need some sed.fu to sed between these 2 elements/strings
starting at
and ending at
I believe that would be a more comprehensive solution to my task.
The following command works echo "some text with spaces" | sh -c 'sed -e 's/t//g''But this doesn't and should echo "some text with spaces" | sh -c 'sed -e 's/ //g''Any ideas? (3 Replies)
