add a line to a specfic point in a file
Hello,
Simple if you know how, which I don't....
I would like to add a line to file file.env
file.env consists of the following :
line 1-20 here ..
# Begin customizations
$AVARIABLE/dir1/dir2;export $AVARIABLE
# End customizations
eof
I would like to use a shell script to add the line $AVARIABLE/dir1/dir2;export $AVARIABLE, but it has to come after # Begin customizations
Any idea how to do this please ? Thanks for your time.
Cheers,
Dave

VIFM(1) File Manager VIFM(1)
NAME
vifm - a ncurses based file manager with vi like keybindings
SYNOPSIS
vifm [ options ] [ dir1 [ dir2 ]]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the vifm file manager. This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original
program does not have a manual page.
vifm is a ncurses based file manager with vi like keybindings. If you use vi, vifm gives you complete keyboard control over your files
without having to learn a new set of commands.
For full documentation, visit the doc directory. A better man page may follow later.
OPTIONS
These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is
included below.
The optional argument dir1 opens an initial directory in the left pane, the dir2 another one for the right pane respectively. If one or
both are missing, the current working directory is used.
--help Show summary of options.
--version
Show version of program.
