Hi people,
I am new to shell scripting, My problem is i have the output of a shell command in one file,and an output of another command in another file, what i want is, I want to append the output of the second command at a particular location of the first file recursively.
ExOUTPUT OF Ist COMMAND)File 1 -->
Code:
-------------------blah blah blah some link(/blah/blah/blah) blah blah -----------blah blah blah some link(/blah/blah/blah) blah blah blah----------blah blah blah some link(/blah/blah/blah) blah blah blah
(OUTPUT OF 2nd COMMAND)File 2---->
Three links one after the other in like below
Code:
Link1
Link2
Link3
I think i made myself clear, Now i want to append the file 2 contents in file one just after the string some link in file 1 correspondingly,
The output should be as shown below---
OUTPUT:
Code:
-------------------blah blah blah some link(The first link of file 2) blah blah -----------blah blah blah some link(The second link of file 2) blah blah blah----------blah blah blah some link(The third link of file 2) blah blah blah

Posting a new question in the Emergency UNIX and Linux Support Forum requires forum Bits. We monitor this forum to help people with emergencies, but we do not not guarantee response time or best answers. However, we will treat your post with a higher priority and give our best efforts to help you.
If you have posted a question in the regular forum with a subject "Urgent" "Emergency" or similar idea, we will, more-than-likely, close your thread and post this reply, redirecting you to the proper forum.
Of course, you can always post a descriptive subject text, remove words like "Urgent" etc. (from your subject and post) and post in the regular forums at any time.

Hi unix lovers,
I am trying to sort this issue for the past one week and i am not able to do.
I have already explained my problem to you guys.
This is a edited version of the post for being more explanatory.
The problem is I have to write a shell script in which i execute 2 commands,both of them stored in two different files.
The contents of the first file say file1.txt is as below
Code:
------------------------------------------------------------------------ string | emailid | 2012-06-21 05:00:01 +0530 (Thu, 21 Jun 2012) | 1 line Changed paths: M /blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah some more string, blah blah blah ------------------------------------------------------------------------ string | emailid | 2012-06-21 22:27:37 +0530 (Thu, 21 Jun 2012) | 1 line Changed paths: M /blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah some more string, blah blah blah ------------------------------------------------------------------------ string | emailid | 2012-06-21 22:45:06 +0530 (Thu, 21 Jun 2012) | 1 line Changed paths: M /blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah some more string, blah blah blah ------------------------------------------------------------------------
The contents of file1.txt are in a single line in a file
The contents of the 2nd file say file2.txt is as shown below,
Code:
link1
link2
link3
The contents of file2.txt are line by line.
Now the issue is i need to place the contents of the file2.txt at a specific location of file1.txt and the output should be as shown below say file3.txt
Code:
------------------------------------------------------------------------ string | emailid | 2012-06-21 05:00:01 +0530 (Thu, 21 Jun 2012) | 1 line Changed paths: M /blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah
link1
some more string, blah blah blah ------------------------------------------------------------------------ string | emailid | 2012-06-21 22:27:37 +0530 (Thu, 21 Jun 2012) | 1 line Changed paths: M /blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah
link2
some more string, blah blah blah ------------------------------------------------------------------------ string | emailid | 2012-06-21 22:45:06 +0530 (Thu, 21 Jun 2012) | 1 line Changed paths: M /blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah
link3
some more string, blah blah blah ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear admin,
I waited for 24 hrs and i am not able to get a suggestion on my issue,
Please help me out in this regard
Two different, contradictory sample lines (not even files!), so maaaany blahs - I'm afraid this is beyond my comprehension.
Pls post again, using meaningful, consistent samples and indications what comes from where and goes to where.
AVikram_Tanwar12: Thanks for the reply. The solution you gave me just places a filed when a pattern is matched.I have got some three to four lines to be appended at specific locations recursively.

Thanks for the reply,
I will explain you again the problem,
I have a file say file1 that contains the output of a command.
Code:
------------------------------------------------------------------------ string | emailid | 2012-06-21 05:00:01 +0530 (Thu, 21 Jun 2012) | 1 line Changed paths: M /blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah some more string, blah blah blah ------------------------------------------------------------------------ string | emailid | 2012-06-21 22:27:37 +0530 (Thu, 21 Jun 2012) | 1 line Changed paths: M /blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah some more string, blah blah blah ------------------------------------------------------------------------ string | emailid | 2012-06-21 22:45:06 +0530 (Thu, 21 Jun 2012) | 1 line Changed paths: M /blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah some more string, blah blah blah ------------------------------------------------------------------------
Each of the "/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah" is a path that starts somethng like this /client/////...
The above part is the output of a command which is directed into a file. Its is stored in a single line.
Now i have got another file say file2 which contains the output of another command. The output of the second command is as follows,
Code:
Link1---A URL
Link2---Another URL
Link3---URL.
As u knw the link starts with http://
The problem is i want to append the three links in file1 at a location after this string "/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah" which is a path.
So the output should be as given below,
"/client/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah" Link1
"/client/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah"
Link2
"/client/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah/blah"
Linnk3
Another important thing is i need to carry the contents of file1 as well.
NOTE: The outputs that i obtained are SVN commands.
Thanks,
Kashyap
