This is the script for searching and replacing string in dir:
Now I need to ask for user confirmation before replacing by showing each line (with $find) from each file in dir and replace only those LINES where user enters 'y'.
Please refer my previous post for example.
Any suggestion is appreciated.
Thanks
Abhinav

script - make record of a terminal session
SYNOPSIS
script [-a] [filename]
DESCRIPTION
The script utility makes a record of everything printed on your screen. The record is written to filename. If no file name is given, the
record is saved in the file typescript. See WARNINGS.
The script command forks and creates a sub-shell, according to the value of $SHELL, and records the text from this session. The script ends
when the forked shell exits or when Control-d is typed.
OPTIONS
The following option is supported:
-a Appends the session record to filename, rather than overwriting it.
NOTES
script places everything that appears on the screen in filename, including prompts.
