Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers inserting a text after a certain word in text files Post 302256188 by rubin on Saturday 8th of November 2008 01:14:19 PM

The OP hasn't posted a sample, so I'm assuming he wants to write files in place.

Code:
for file in html_files*
 do 
   awk '/<head>/{ print; system("cat tagfav.txt"); next }1' $file > $file.tmp && mv $file.tmp $file
 done

If you need to preserve the original files remove the colored portion of the code.
