Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting SED: match pattern & delete matched lines Post 302097209 by not4google on Wednesday 22nd of November 2006 08:47:00 AM

Thanks for the quick responses,

I want to search for a particular string and then append to the first line, is this possible with something like the following:

Code:
 sed -e /test/s/$/ testString/; x.csv

This appends testString to the EOL (where test is matched) but I need to append testString to the line above the one matched, is this possible?
