Env Variable substituion in Sed (-s option)
Folks,
I've been trying to use the ENV variable with slashes(/) in its value inside the sed substitution.. Sed 's/myval/'$MYVAL'/' file1 >> file.tmp If MYVAL=<sometext>, it works. if MYVAL=/home/venkat, it doesnt. *************************** bash-2.05$ export VAL=/home/venkat bash-2.05$ sed 's/myval/'$VAL'/' file1 sed: command garbled: s/myval//home/venkat/ bash-2.05$ ***************************** I know that we generally escape the / using \, but here the value being substitued during run-time. Could some1 throw some light on it. Thx 4 ur time. --Venkat. |
