I am afraid I haven't given enough details about my case.
I will try to be more clear posting what I am doing.
I want to add the time information contained in the filename inside the file using the command:
sh AddTim < filename-0.5_s.dat > filename-0.5_s.out
where AddTim is:
#!/bin/sh
time=$(echo $1 | cut -d "-" -f2 | cut -d "_" -f1)
sed "s/X/X, TIME=$time/"
Unfortunately, the resulting time information is blank!
