Insert output from a file to beginning of line with sed
Hi
I've been trying to search but couldn't quite get the answer I was looking for.
I have a a file that's like this
How do I make it so the file will be like this?
I tried doing something like this and variations of this, but can't seem to get it to work.
It doesn't seem that $DATETMP is inserting into the beginning of the line.
Any help is extremely appreciated.
Thank you.
