sed "s/99998/"$jobnum"/g;" $src"j99998a.pst" > "j"$jobnum"a.pst"
changes 99998 to my stored $jobnum
starting with my j99998a.pst file (using $src as path location)
and outputting to new name with my $jobnum as the new filename
Just follow all of the double quotes to make sure variables all line up correctly.
I actually do several of these when setting up repetitive work - copying a global use file and customizing it for my current job/task. (By habit, I use 99998 as a dummy number - I found that using 99999 could run into issues since "99999" could be a mask for outputs or other uses.)
I have a 'sed' editor command trying to read contents of one file into another.
v=t1
PX=25
sed '/for/ r /$v/ext/tsfirmfiles.${PX}' /bb/bin/px${PX}.files.2b.deleted > result
I cannot come up with the syntax so 'sed' would do a variable substitution.
Any idea? Thanks a for help. -A (1 Reply)
Hi,
I am facing a strange problem. I have a script that used the following to search and replace text:
sed 's/'"${find_var_parm}"'/'"${find_var_filter}"'/g' $ParmFile > $TempFile
The values of $find_var_parm and $find_var_filter are set based on search criteria. The above seems to be working... (2 Replies)

Give the code:
set line = 2
set year = `sed -n '2p' file
while ($line < 500)
echo $line > f.txt

How do I utilize the variable $line in the code instead of the number 2. I'm using this in a while loop and counter. I've tried quoting it, double/single... (1 Reply)

dh-exec-subst
DH-EXEC-SUBST(1) dh-exec DH-EXEC-SUBST(1)NAME
dh-exec-subst - Debhelper executable file substition scripts
SYNOPSIS
#! /usr/bin/dh-exec
src/libfoo-*.so.* debian/foo-plugins/usr/lib/foo/${DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH}/
DESCRIPTION
Being a sub-command of dh-exec(1), this program must not be ran directly, but through dh-exec, which automatically runs all available
sub-commands if run bare; or explicitly with dh-exec --with=subst.
It is a wrapper around the various other substitution helpers, and will pipe the input file through all the available substitution helpers.
It is up to these scripts to do the actual work.
When a helper fails to expand a variable within its input, it will leave it as-is, so that later in the pipeline it can perhaps be expanded
by another program.
SCRIPTS
dh-exec-subst-env
Substitutes any of the available, exported environment variables into its input. It does not do any kind of filtering: whatever is
available in the environment, will be available for substitution, however unsafe that may be.
dh-exec-subst-multiarch
Attempts to expand any of the variables known to dpkg-architecture(1), mostly useful for multi-arch support.
The command will query dpkg-architecture(1) directly, and does not rely on environment variables set (as the called program will
prefer already set environment variables anyway).
ENVIRONMENT
DH_EXEC_SCRIPTDIR
Indicates which directory the command-specific scripts should be sought for. If not specified, scripts will be searched for in
/usr/share/dh-exec/.
FILES
$DH_EXEC_SCRIPTDIR/dh-exec-subst-*
The various scripts for the higher-level program.
