hi,
try this:
i got the following output for your input:
not quite what I was expecting , My fault probably for not being clear enough with the requirement:
---------- Post updated at 05:48 PM ---------- Previous update was at 05:29 PM ----------
basically it's a case of "if there are any letters (with no spaces) directly to the left or right of the string I'm replacing, don't replace it" so the following must be left alone:
HELLORICHHELLO
HELLORICH
RICHHELLO
anything other than the above is fair game with the added condition that 'if you're doing a replace and the string being replaced is lower case, replace with lowercase, if uppercase, replace with uppercase

I am working on a shell program that needs to accept alpha-numeric input (i.e., P00375); when I use a simple 'read' statement to read in the input (i.e., read LOG), I receive the message "p00375: bad number". How must I adjust my input statement to accept alpha-numerics?
Thanks!

While I do know some control characters need to be escaped, can normal characters also be escaped and still work the same way? Basically I do not know all control characters that have a special meaning, for example, ?, ., % have a meaning and have to be escaped... (11 Replies)
Hello!
I know that this expression gets rid of non-alphanumeric characters:
sed 's///g'
and I understand that it is replacing them with nothing - hence the '//'-, but I don't understand how it's doing it.
It seems it's finding strings that begin with alphanumeric and replacing them with... (2 Replies)

IMPRESSIVE-GETTRANSITIONS(1) Debian GNU/Linux manual IMPRESSIVE-GETTRANSITIONS(1)NAME
impressive-gettransitions - Generate Impressive info scripts for LaTeX presentations
SYNOPSIS
impressive-gettransitions FILE.tex
DESCRIPTION
A simple script to produce a .info file for use with Impressive, using special comments in a LaTeX/Beamer file. FILE.tex is a file to be
parsed into .info file. For each /fullpath/blah.tex /fullpath/blah.pdf.info gets produced.
SYNTAX
In the LaTeX document, impressive-gettransitions counts the pages to determine the PDF slide number of each one.
The simpler page changes are automatically detected, that is:
egin{frame} and:
pause
Other, more elaborated page changes must be noted with a %O comment:
item<1-> Foo
item<2-> Bar %O
The transition to apply can be specified in a %O comment:
egin{frame} %O SlideUp
OPERATION
When the .info file corresponding to the LaTeX document already exist, impressive-gettransitions does not clear it, but only adds the
transitions if finds to it.
Thus, if you modified your document in a way that requires to completely replace the transitions, manually clear the PageProps section of
the .info file. This can be done by running the following sed command:
sed -i -e "/^PageProps = {/,/^}/d" FILE.info
