Replace a word after a particular word in a file
Hi,

I want to replace a word in a file which occurs after a particular word.

For example :
Code:
 
$cat file.txt
CASE
   WHEN
      AND c1 = 'I'
       AND c2= '2'
        THEN  1
   WHEN
      AND c1= 'I'
       AND c2= '0'
        THEN  2

So in this example i want to replace the AND which occurs after WHEN.

SO the required output :
Code:
 
$cat file.txt
CASE
   WHEN
             c1 = 'I'
       AND c2= '2'
       THEN  1
   WHEN
             c1= 'I'
       AND c2= '0'
       THEN  2

GLSAMPLEMASKI(3G)						  [FIXME: manual]						 GLSAMPLEMASKI(3G)

NAME

       glSampleMaski - set the value of a sub-word of the sample mask

C SPECIFICATION

       void glSampleMaski(GLuint maskNumber, GLbitfield mask);

PARAMETERS

       maskNumber
	   Specifies which 32-bit sub-word of the sample mask to update.

       mask
	   Specifies the new value of the mask sub-word.

DESCRIPTION

       glSampleMaski sets one 32-bit sub-word of the multi-word sample mask, GL_SAMPLE_MASK_VALUE.

       maskIndex specifies which 32-bit sub-word of the sample mask to update, and mask specifies the new value to use for that sub-word.
       maskIndex must be less than the value of GL_MAX_SAMPLE_MASK_WORDS. Bit B of mask word M corresponds to sample 32 x M + B.

NOTES

       glSampleMaski is available only if the GL version is 3.2 or greater, or if the ARB_texture_multisample extension is supported.

ERRORS

       GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if maskIndex is greater than or equal to the value of GL_MAX_SAMPLE_MASK_WORDS.
