Sure, with the substitution operator
s you can use any character (except backslash and newline ) as a delimiter so instead of
/ I used
| .
The pattern to match is
.*${script_path}.* which matches the whole line if the contents of $script_path are part of the line. If the latter is the case then it gets replaced by a
# , followed by the line that was matched (
& ) . Everything is in double quotes so that variables get expanded by the shell.
I hope I explained it clearly?

yodlpost
yodlpost(1) Your Own Document Language yodlpost(1)
NAME
yodlpost - Yodl post-processor
SYNOPSIS
yodlpost [options] index yodlout [out]
DESCRIPTION
The Yodl post processor is used to solve references into the converted text, and to split (where appropriate) the converted Yodl text in
parts. Some conversions do not require post-processing, such as LaTeX, but most do. Therefore, in most cases a Yodl conversion consists of
two phases:
o First, yodl(1) is called, producing a raw output file and an associated index file;
o Then, yodlpost(1) is called, converting these two files into a final document. Normally, yodl2...(1) scripts are used to perform
complete Yodl conversions.
OPTIONS
-x ext: extension of the out-s if different from out's extension itself. If omitted, and out has no extension, ypp (Yodl Post Processor) is
used.
SEE ALSO
yodlstriproff(1), yodl(1), yodlbuiltins(7), yodlconverters(1), yodlletter(7), yodlmacros(7), yodlmanpage(7), yodlverbinsert(1).
