How to skip lines in a KSH?
hi,
I have a shell script that searches for a particular pattern in all the files inside a directory, and gives the count of that pattern occurences in a file.
Now i should not count the pattern if it exists in side a { .... }, as shown below.
{
......
.....
.... PATTERN1.......
....
}
How can i get this in a shell script..
Thanks
