Im trying to run a search and replace of exact strings and the strings that im using variables that are passed through an array in a while loop. Here is a snip of my code:
Code:
USEROLD=`cat oldusers`
USERNEW=`cat newusers`
USEROLDARRAY=( $USEROLD )
USERNEWARRAY=( $USERNEW )
arraylength=`cat oldusers | wc -l`
i=0;
while [ "$i" -lt "$arraylength" ]
do
fromold=${USEROLDARRAY["$i"]};
fromnew=${USERNEWARRAY["$i"]};
echo "Replacing $fromold with $fromnew"
cat groups.almost | sed s/$fromold/$fromnew/g >> tmpfile
mv tmpfile groups.almost
let "i = $i +1"
done
mv groups.almost groups.final
in the oldusers file there is a list of users which some of them have their name in part or other users names so doing a replacment of say the user "lin" with "xlin" has resulted in replacing a user that had the word "lin" in their user name like "maklin" and maklin ends up being "makdlin". I also tried adding \b around my $fromold variable but no such luck. Anyone have an idea?

Is there hopefully a way to search for an exact string in Man Pages? I know if I want to search for anything containing -c I can just do this.
/-c
How would I search for "-c"? I want only "-c" to show up. So I tried this.
/"-c"
It took me literally and looked for the quotes also. (13 Replies)

SUBSCRIPTIONS(5) InterNetNews Documentation SUBSCRIPTIONS(5)NAME
subscriptions - Default recommended subscriptions
DESCRIPTION
The pathetc/subscriptions file contains a list of newsgroups that is returned by the NNTP command LIST SUBSCRIPTIONS.
Clients that support this command usually send it the first time they connect to a new news server. They use the returned list to
initialize the list of subscribed newsgroups. The subscriptions file therefore should contain groups intended for new users, for testing,
or that contain FAQs and other useful information for first-time Usenet users.
The syntax of the subscriptions file is trivial; it is a simple list of newsgroup names, one per line. The order of newsgroups may be
significant; the news reading client may present the groups in that order to the user.
Be aware that use of the LIST SUBSCRIPTIONS command is not widespread (though documented in RFC 6048) and most news clients will never ask
for this file.
EXAMPLE
A typical subscriptions file may look like:
news.announce.newusers
news.newusers.questions
local.test
local.general
local.talk
misc.test
misc.test.moderated
news.answers
news.announce.newgroups
This gives the client the FAQs and question newsgroup for new users first, then a local newsgroup for testing and various commonly-read
local discussion groups, followed by the world-wide test groups, all the FAQs, and announcements of new world-wide newsgroups. If there is
a local new users group, one might want to list it first.
