Just to get my concept straight about variable values replaced by sed- I have written this script not the most efficient one but works.
Code:
#!/bin/sh
echo "Enter your name \c"
read name
echo "This is the story about $name "
echo "There is a file created for you by the name of $name.history"
touch $name.history
cp anyone $name.history
anyname=$name
sed -e s/anyname/$anyname/g $name.history > $name1.history
mv $name1.history $name.history

makedbz - Rebuild dbz files
SYNOPSIS
makedbz [-io] [-f filename] [-s size]
DESCRIPTION
makedbz rebuilds dbz(3) database. The default name of the text file is pathdb/history; to specify a different name, use the -f flag.
OPTIONS -f filename
If the -f flag is used, then the database files are named "filename.dir", "filename.index", and "filename.hash". If the -f flag is not
used, then a temporary link to the name "history.n" is made and the database files are written as "history.n.index" , "history.n.hash"
and "history.n.dir".
-i To ignore the old database, use the -i flag. Using the -o or -s flags implies the -i flag.
-o If the -o flag is used, then the link is not made and any existing history files are overwritten. If the old database exists, makedbz
will use it to determine the size of the new database.
-s size
makedbz will also ignore any old database if the -s flag is used to specify the approximate number of entries in the new database.
Accurately specifying the size is an optimization that will create a more efficient database. Size is measured in key-value pairs
(i.e. lines). (The size should be the estimated eventual size of the file, typically the size of the old file.)
For more information, see the discussion of dbzfresh and dbzsize in dbz(3).
