sed magic!
Hi,

I have this line in my script, and works perfect!
tran= "$(sed = "$fname" | sed "/./N; s/\n/: /" | sed -n "${beg},${end}p")"

$fname its a file, and gets multilines between beg and end.:
Something like this:
1: line a
2: line b
3: line c

But now, I want insert in the end of each line a string, e.g. XPTO, to get a output like this:
1: line aXPTO
2: line bXPTO
3: line cXPTO

Thanks in advance

Something like this?

Code:
sed 's/.*/&XPTO/' file > newfile

Another way allways with sed :
Code:
sed 's/$/XPTO/' infile > outfile

The two sed commands work fine for me :
Code:
> cat vibra.dat
1: line a
2: line b
3: line c
> sed 's/.*/&XPTO/' vibra.dat
1: line aXPTO
2: line bXPTO
3: line cXPTO
> sed 's/$/XPTO/' vibra.dat
1: line aXPTO
2: line bXPTO
3: line cXPTO

All the work can be do with a single awk command :
Code:
> cat vibra0.sh
beg=2
end=4
tran="$(awk 'NR==b,NR==e { print NR, $0 "XPTO" }' b=${beg} e=${end} vibra0.dat)"
echo "${tran}"
> cat vibra0.dat
line a
line b
line c
line d
line e
line f
> vibra0.sh
2 line bXPTO
3 line cXPTO
4 line dXPTO
>
