How to replace one line with three in sed
Hi,
I have a problem. I want to use SED to replace one line with three
It looks like:
PARAM='first_line,second_line,third_line'
And in file:
blablabla
blablabla
PARAM
blablabla
blablabla
blablabla

All I want is to change this into:

blablabla
blablabla
first_line
second_line
third_line
blablabla
blablabla
blablabla

maketext

MAKETEXT(1p)						User Contributed Perl Documentation					      MAKETEXT(1p)

NAME

       maketext - translate and make messages

SYNOPSIS

	 maketext [OPTION] [--domain=TEXTDOMAIN] MSGKEY [PARAM...]
	 maketext [OPTION] -s MSGID [PARAM...]

DESCRIPTION

       The "maketext" script translates a natural language message into the user's language, by looking up the translation in a message MO file,
       and process the plural transformation with Maketext.

       The "maketext" script is a command-line interface to Locale::Maketext::Gettext(3) (and Locale::Maketext(3)).  It can be used in shell
       scripts, etc, to translate, maketext and return the result.  By this way, it enables Maketext to be integrated into other programming
       languages/systems, like bash/csh, python, PHP, C, etc.  It works like the command-line program gettext.

       For example:

	 % maketext -s "[*,_1,virus was,viruses were] found in [*,_2,file,files]." 0 1
	 0 viruses were found in 1 file.
	 % maketext -s "[*,_1,virus was,viruses were] found in [*,_2,file,files]." 1 3
	 1 virus was found in 3 files.
	 %

OPTIONS

       -d,--domain=TEXTDOMAIN
	   Retrieve translated messages from TEXTDOMAIN.

       -s  Adds a new line to the end of the output so that it behaves like the `echo' or the `gettext' command.

       -h,--help
	   Display the help messages.

       -V,--version
	   Display version information and exit.

       MSGKEY
	   The original text used to look up translated text.

       PARAM...
	   Parameters to Maketext for the plural and other text functions.

ENVIRONMENT

       TEXTDOMAIN
	   TEXTDOMAIN is used to determine the text domain when the -d parameter is not given.

       TEXTDOMAINDIR
	   TEXTDOMAINDIR is used to search the message catelog/MO file if it does not reside in the system locale directories.

NOTES

       Maketext language function override, like "quant" or "numerate", is not available here.	Suggestions are welcome.

       The current system locale directory search order is: /usr/share/locale, /usr/lib/locale, /usr/local/share/locale, /usr/local/lib/locale.
       Suggestions are welcome.
