sed search and replace in next line
Hello,
I am hoping someone can provide some guidance on using context based search and replace to search for a pattern and then do a search and replace in the line that follows it. For example, I have a file that looks like this: <bold>bold text </italic> somecontent morecontent <italic>italic text </italic> somecontent morecontent <bold>bold text </italic> Basically, I'd like to look for lines containing the <bold> tag, and then search and replace the </italic> tag with the proper closing </bold> tag. The goal is not to disturb the tags that should remain italic. <bold>bold text </bold> I'm not married to doing this with sed, but it would be great to have a simple one-liner to accomplish this. For ex, I've attempted to do this using something like: sed '/<bold>/,+1 s/<\/italic>/<\/bold>/g' But I am not sure that my syntax is correct. Appreciate the help. Thanks. |
