Shell-scripting n00bie here... I'm having a terrible time getting my head around how to use the sed command & could really use some help. Basically, I'm trying to use sed to remove all characters of a line up to a '<' character within a text-file. It would be spectacular if there would even be a way to do-that on all lines wthin a text-file, as I'm looking to execute this sed command within a shell-script.
Tried the following so-far:
Thanks!

sed 's/abc/xyz/g' abc.txt > abc.txt
This change all the abc s in abc.txt to xyz s but does not write back to the abc.txt.
Suggest me the cleaner way without using temp file please.

Hi All,
After reading that the sort command in Linux can be made to use many processor cores just by using a simple script which I found on the internet, I was wondering if I can use similar techniques for programs like the awk and sed?

Hi All,
I am new to unix.
In this forum some days back, I have read something like below:
1) Do not use perl if awk can do your work.
2) Do not use awk if sed can do your work.

I do not re-collect the whole thing. I think it is good to know the precedence of using these... (2 Replies)

openipmish
openipmish(1) Shell interface to an IPMI system openipmish(1)NAME
openipmish - Shell interface to an IPMI system
SYNOPSIS
openipmish [option]
DESCRIPTION
The openipmish is a command interpreter that gives the full power of the OpenIPMI library to a user-level command language. It is designed
so it can easily be driven with a scripting language like TCL, it has well-formed output.
openipmish starts up with no connections or anything of that nature. You must enter commands to make connections to domains.
OPTIONS --dmsg Turn on message debugging, this will dump all messages to debug log output.
--drawmsg
Turn on raw message debugging, this will dump all low-level messages to debug log output. This differes from normal message debug-
ging in that all protocol messages are also dumped, not just IPMI messages.
--dmem Turn on memory debugging, this will cause memory allocation and deallocations to be checked. When the program terminates, it will
dump all memory that was not properly freed (leaked).
--dlock
Turn on lock debugging, this will check lock operations to make sure that locks are help in all the proper places and make sure that
locks are properly nested.
--snmp Enable the SNMP trap handler. openipmish must be compiled with SNMP code enabled for this option to be available.
--help Help output
COMMANDS
openipmish follows the standard command syntax defined in ipmi_cmdlang(7). See that for the details on most commands. The IPMI manual
that comes with OpenIPMI will also be quite handy.
openipmish defines some commands that are not in the standard command language. These are:
read Read and execute commands from the given file.
exit Quit
redisp_cmd on|off
Normally, openipmish redisplays the command line when an event comes in. This is nice for interactive use, but bad for scripting.
This lets you turn that function on and off.
