Line manipulation

hi guys,

I have wrote a code to essentially to scan line by line and extract the epoch time and count value. I was able to compare the line time with current time and make an if condition statement to increase count but I m having problems replacing the old count with the new count value. I know sed looks like the obvious choice but i cant seem to get it to work and as far as I know all sed's output go to a file not the same line...Smilie

Code:
for line in `cat Final`  
do
    echo -e "$line"
    count=`echo $line | cut -d ',' -f 4`
    etime=`echo $line | cut -d "," -f 1`
    echo  $etime
    echo  $count   
    sytime=`date +%s`
    dif=$(( $sytime - $etime ))
    echo $dif
    if [ $dif -ge 900 ];then
	  echo true
             newcount=$(( $count + 1 ))	
	  tline= sed s/"$count"/"$newcount"/ $line 
	  $line = $tline
             echo $newcount
	  echo $line
		
    else 
	  echo flase
    fi		
done

Its a Bash Script

NAME
ratfor - rational Fortran dialect SYNOPSIS
ratfor [ option ... ] [ filename ... ] DESCRIPTION
Ratfor converts a rational dialect of Fortran into ordinary irrational Fortran. Ratfor provides control flow constructs essentially iden- tical to those in C: statement grouping: { statement; statement; statement } decision-making: if (condition) statement [ else statement ] switch (integer value) { case integer: statement ... [ default: ] statement } loops: while (condition) statement for (expression; condition; expression) statement do limits statement repeat statement [ until (condition) ] break [n] next [n] and some syntactic sugar to make programs easier to read and write: free form input: multiple statements/line; automatic continuation comments: # this is a comment translation of relationals: >, >=, etc., become .GT., .GE., etc. return (expression) returns expression to caller from function define: define name replacement include: include filename The option -h causes quoted strings to be turned into 27H constructs. -C copies comments to the output, and attempts to format it neatly. Normally, continuation lines are marked with a & in column 1; the option -6x makes the continuation character x and places it in column 6. Ratfor is best used with f77(1). SEE ALSO
