Thanks

Thanks, the code you gave me worked.

Here is the final program looking to code anything like this.
Code:
echo Enter the name of the file without the .wig
read NAME
echo the ratio?
read ratio
awk -v ratio=$ratio '{if($1 == "variableStep") {print $0} else {$2*=ratio;{print $0}}}' ${NAME}.wig > ${NAME}normalized.wig
