Help with shell script and sed!
Hi folks, maybe somebody here can help me.
I have 2 files. File A and File B. File A contains URLs leading to files on the Internet, with one URL per line; The format of the URLs on each line in File A is [http/filename].
File B contains only the filenames from each line in File A; One filename per line.
Here is my logic:
If any line in File B = A [http/"filename"] then echo the corresponding line in File A ["http/"filename].
I need to echo the results for each line. I'm assuming sed and some sort of loop would be necessary, but I'm still kind of a noob when it comes to this scripting stuff; sometimes I get it and sometimes I don't. I'll keep working on it in the meantime
Thanks in advance.

HISTORY
The GNU shtool subst command was originally written by Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com> in 2001 for GNU shtool. It was prompted
by the need to have a uniform and convenient patching frontend to sed(1) operations in the OpenPKG package specifications.
