Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Regex in grep to match all lines ending with a double quote (") OR a single quote (') Post 302347645 by NanJ on Wednesday 26th of August 2009 07:28:20 AM

Writing the pattern to a file without the hassles of escaping the quotes worked perfectly fine!
Thanks a ton.. Smilie

I had escaped both " and ' when I had the regex directly in the command. Wonder why it failed despite using "\"....
Had tried the following:
Code:
egrep -l "(^[nN][aA][mM][eE]) *= *[\"\'] *[a-zA-Z0-9_+-]* *[\"\']$" /FILE
egrep -l "(^[nN][aA][mM][eE]) *= *\"\|\' *[a-zA-Z0-9_+-]* *\"\|\'$" /FILE

I'd used both these options to get the OR, but they'd failed.

Thanks
NJ
