how to replace one line in text with several lines
Hi,
I need to replace a specific line in a text (eg the line contains the word MYSERVER) with a number of lines (let's say 4) in which the word MYSERVER will be replaced with server1 in the first line server2 in the second line server3 in the 3rd line server4 in the 4th line The original text would be something like lline1 line2 line3 THIS IS THE LINE WITH MYSERVER line4 line5 The resulting text should be like: lline1 line2 line3 THIS IS THE LINE WITH server1 THIS IS THE LINE WITH server2 THIS IS THE LINE WITH server3 THIS IS THE LINE WITH server4 line4 line5 If anyone could help with this it would be great! Thank you.
