replace a paragraph in a textfile
Hi:
First, this is not a homework problem. I just need enough of a hint to get this going... My datafile (dataf.in) is made up of 10 sections. Each section begins with & and with && So it looks like this:------------------------------------- §ion1 ...etc... && §ion2 ...etc... && ------------------ I need to replace section2 with a new section that I call "section_new" contained in file (dataf.new). So now, dataf.in looks like this now: §ion1 ...etc... && §ion_new ...etc... && I am trying to do that with no luck with a shell script or awk. Is that feasible? or should I be coding it in C? Any suggestion or feedback is appreciated. Best, Paprika  Last edited by Paprika; 06-14-2005 at 10:54 AM.. Reason: want to include additional comment. |
