Data
What happen if the data is
$ cat tmp
%is xxx = 123 be 123
How to code it so it will ignore 123 be 123. I know that "%is xxx = " is the exact pattern everytime the rest of the line is unknown
using the code below I will get
$ sed 's/^\(%is xxx = \)[0-9]*\( *.*\)$/\11234\2/g' tmp

%is xxx = 1234 be 123

I am only interested to get:
%is xxx = 1234
