Replace lines from one file to another
Hello,
I have 8 lines containing these unique words in both files
645147468537
673962863160
673962864957
691717701950
707917019907
790085591726
792975507744
852174812753
file.dat.orig (has 1000 lines) and file.dat(has only 8 lines)
I want to replace those lines in file.dat.orig by the lines in file.dat
Updated
To clarify - both the files have difference in lines (except those unique words). Hence i want to replace.
Thanks in advance - Jak
