@ysrini: Did you try searching the forum? There're several posts on this one.
balajesuri, <eof> is not a string by itself, here eof stands for end-of-file and we use <...> notation for explaining something that's not obvious
In the data i provided since you cannot see where the end of file character is i denoted that by <eof>
My question was on how to avoid a newline that's the end of the file too, and not the string "<eof>"
Like newline is represented by "\n", how's eof character represented?
Hi ,
I need to develop a parser which should match something like
1. text a=5 " a=20";
2. text a=..."
a=20";
3 text a=..."
a=20
b=34
c=12
";
I have used this regular expression in my Lex file to generate the tokens:
\".\s*.*\s.\" (8 Replies)
Hi,
How to detect eof character in a data file? I am reading a data file generated from UNIX. I use java scanner, the scanner's hasNextLine() returns false in the middle of the file. I suspect there is a eof in the middle of the data file. Does anybody know how to check if a file contains eof... (1 Reply)
Hi everyone!
This is my very first post, sorry if I'm not posting in the right category.
I'm trying to match a newline "/n" using lex/yacc.
For example,
print(9,'\n',8)
should print
9
8
now do I write a regular expression to match exactly " '\n' "
Thanks! (1 Reply)

sed 's|^xyz.abc *= *.*|xyz.abc=60|' /test/myFile.properties > /test/myFile.properties1
myFile.properties has the last line as xyz.abc=23 does not end with newline.
When I run this command the last line is truncated if there is no newline character at EOF. Looking for an alternative here. (1 Reply)

Hi everyone
I have a file where CP occurs both within each line and at the very end:

replace
REPLACE(1) General Commands Manual REPLACE(1)NAME
replace - A utility program that is used by msql2mysql, but that has more general applicability as well. replace changes strings in place
in files or on the standard input. Uses a finite state machine to match longer strings first. Can be used to swap strings.
USAGE
replace [-?svIV] from to from to ... -- [files]
or
replace [-?svIV] from to from to ... < fromfile > tofile
SYNOPSIS
replace [-?|-I] [-s] [-v]
DESCRIPTION
replace
-?|-I info
-s silent
-v verbose
EXTRA INFO
Special characters in from string:
^ Match start of line.
$ Match end of line.
Match space-character, start of line or end of line. For a end the next replace starts locking at the end space-character. A
alone in a string matches only a space-character.
EXAMPLE
this command swaps a and b in the given files:
shell> replace a b b a -- file1 file2 ...
