Append using SED/AWK

Hi friends,

I have a file with content SOME TEXT HERE

I want to append the string GREAT to Line 1 of my file such that the file content should be
GREAT
SOME TEXT HERE

I can do a cat for the string great and file >> newfile and then rename newfile name to file

But this does not put GREAT at Line1. It writes in one single line like GREAT SOME TEXT HERE.

Is there any better way to do this? May be using SED/AWK?

Also please show some pointers to SED/AWk tutorials I would like to start learning them.

CREATE TEXT SEARCH 
CONFIGURATION(7) SQL Commands CREATE TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION(7) NAME
CREATE TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION - define a new text search configuration SYNOPSIS
CREATE TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION name ( PARSER = parser_name | COPY = source_config ) DESCRIPTION
CREATE TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION creates a new text search configuration. A text search configuration specifies a text search parser that can divide a string into tokens, plus dictionaries that can be used to determine which tokens are of interest for searching. If only the parser is specified, then the new text search configuration initially has no mappings from token types to dictionaries, and therefore will ignore all words. Subsequent ALTER TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION commands must be used to create mappings to make the configura- tion useful. Alternatively, an existing text search configuration can be copied. If a schema name is given then the text search configuration is created in the specified schema. Otherwise it is created in the current schema. The user who defines a text search configuration becomes its owner. Refer to in the documentation for further information. PARAMETERS
name The name of the text search configuration to be created. The name can be schema-qualified. parser_name The name of the text search parser to use for this configuration. source_config The name of an existing text search configuration to copy. NOTES
The PARSER and COPY options are mutually exclusive, because when an existing configuration is copied, its parser selection is copied too. COMPATIBILITY
There is no CREATE TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION statement in the SQL standard. SEE ALSO
ALTER TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION [alter_text_search_configuration(7)], DROP TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION [drop_text_search_configuration(7)] SQL - Language Statements 2010-05-14 CREATE TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION(7)
