Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Path a variable to sed that includes a path Post 302501680 by mavkoup on Friday 4th of March 2011 08:45:50 AM
Old 03-04-2011
But the file I'm selecting text from already contains the path names. Replacing them in the file is not appropriate. My file has a bunch of

BEGIN path name

some text

END
BEGIN another path name

some text

END

I know the different path names used, example /home/mavkoup/data, home/mavkoup/info/ and so on.

I want to grep a specific BEGIN END block by using a variable and the block I want changes.

NAME
PPI::Statement::Scheduled - A scheduled code block INHERITANCE
PPI::Statement::Scheduled isa PPI::Statement::Sub isa PPI::Statement isa PPI::Node isa PPI::Element DESCRIPTION
A scheduled code block is one that is intended to be run at a specific time during the loading process. There are five types of scheduled block: BEGIN { # Executes as soon as this block is fully defined ... } CHECK { # Executes after overall compile-phase in reverse order ... } UNITCHECK { # Executes after compile-phase of individual module in reverse order ... } INIT { # Executes just before run-time ... } END { # Executes as late as possible in reverse order ... } Technically these scheduled blocks are actually subroutines, and in fact may have 'sub' in front of them. METHODS
type The "type" method returns the type of scheduled block, which should always be one of 'BEGIN', 'CHECK', 'UNITCHECK', 'INIT' or 'END'. TO DO
