But Im trying to call this command (sed -n "$linenum p" file1.txt) from a pipeline in C and I doesn't works ... And I think the error is the double quotes can i run the command something different.. sed -n $linenum p file1.txt (but this way doesn't work)
Hi, i've got the following:
a=`echo $b | grep '^.*/'`
i'm storing in the variable the value of the variable b only if it has a / somewhere.
It works, but i don't want to print the value. How do i give the value of b to the grep command without the echo?
thanks! (5 Replies)
I am performing a grep command and I need to know how to echo "NONE" or "0" to my file if grep does not find what i am looking for.
