Yes, this is part of the process of updating many C files which cannot be reasonably made by hand.

by using the following:

Code:
sed '/#include/ a\
#include "myHeader.h"' input > ouput

it adds my header after each line already calling a header. Is there a means to make this happen only after the last existing include ?
