Modifying a .ksh script

Hi users,

I am on a beginner level and just joined this site.

I have created a simple .ksh file in the following manner
Code:
cat <<EOF >mfile
#!/bin/ksh
echo "hello world"
EOF

Request for some help with 2 cases

1. now i would like to add a second line after the first echo command
e.g.
Code:
echo "this is line 2"

how can i do that ?

2. I would then like to delete the first line
Code:
echo "hello world"

how can i perform this operation.

Thanks in advance,
C
