grepping lines out of files
Hi, I wonder if anyone can help me. I have a file with about 200 lines in it. I am wanting to set up a Count so that it picks out each line at turn and edits the line. However i am having trouble pulling out the specific line. I have a feeling it will be done somehow by a grep -n but what ever i try i can not pick out the line.
Can anyone please point me in the right direction.

sed is probably more the command you are looking for. Somthing like sed -n '# p' will probably work (syntax may be slightly off, I am doing it from memory and it has been a while). Just replace # with the line number you are looking for. The nl command may also be useful. It accepts a file and prints it with a line count.
