Alright, I think I know what I am doing with sed(which probably means I don't). But I cant figure out how to replace just the first occurance of a string. I have tried sed, ed, and grep but can't seem to figure it out. If you have any suggestions I am open to anything! (3 Replies)

lorder
lorder(1) User Commands lorder(1)
NAME
lorder - find ordering relation for an object or library archive
SYNOPSIS
lorder filename...
DESCRIPTION
The input is one or more object or library archive filenames (see ar(1)). The standard output is a list of pairs of object file or archive
member names; the first file of the pair refers to external identifiers defined in the second. The output may be processed by tsort(1) to
find an ordering of a library suitable for one-pass access by ld. Note that the link editor ld is capable of multiple passes over an ar-
chive in the portable archive format (see ar.h(3HEAD)) and does not require that lorder be used when building an archive. The usage of
the lorder command may, however, allow for a more efficient access of the archive during the link edit process.
The following example builds a new library from existing .o files.
ar -cr library `lorder *.o | tsort`
FILES
TMPDIR/*symref temporary files
TMPDIR/*symdef temporary files
TMPDIR usually /var/tmp but can be redefined by setting the environment variable TMPDIR (see tempnam() in tmpnam(3C))
ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:
+-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
| ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE |
+-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
|Availability |SUNWbtool |
+-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
SEE ALSO
ar(1), ld(1), tsort(1), tmpnam(3C), ar.h(3HEAD), attributes(5)
NOTES
lorder will accept as input any object or archive file, regardless of its suffix, provided there is more than one input file. If there is
but a single input file, its suffix must be .o.
The length of the filename for TMPDIR is limited to whatever sed allows.
