Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Extended replacing of nonspecific strings in text files [beware complicated !] Post 302527069 by pasc on Thursday 2nd of June 2011 09:13:49 AM

I just added something to the text file, please reread it,

It seems your understanding is correct,
when N-N-N-N-N is found it should be replaced and each found instance with the said up there.

that means:

first instance N-N-N-N-N replace with 1234
second instance N-N-N-N-N replace ALSO with 1234

third instance N-N-N-N-N replace with 5678
fourth instance N-N-N-N-N replace ALSO with 5678
and so forth...
