Parsin Problems

jascas · #1 (**permalink**) 04-22-2009

Hi all
I have this line of code for parsing .properties but it does not work corectly. As you can see I want to put an "XxxX" at the end of each line that has an "=" in it and it must exclude those that have ".png".

sed -e '/=/ {/\.png/!s/,/XxxX,/}' -e '/=/{/\.png/!s/$/XxxX/}' "${name}" >"${RESULT}"

This is ok but it does not work correctly. When I run it it puts "XxxX" on a new line instead of the end of the line. Also I want to change it so it does NOT modify the line if it ends in a number character or ".gif"

Thanks for your help

Try this:

Code:

sed '/png/d' filename | sed 's/\(.*\)=\(.*\)/&XXXX/'

I can't use this because it deletes the lines that end in .png and it does not take into account lines that end in .gif or a number value.
