thanks it is working.

just wanted to know what is the use of semicolon ; for multiple gsub() used under same loop. is it mandatory to use ; after each gsub() under a given loop ?

for (i in array)
{
gsub("^"i, array[i]) ;
gsub("Configuration file for "i, "Configuration file for " array[i])
}



moreover my awk cmd is in one line and looks complex , how can i break this to multiple line ? I am using this awk command under a shell script .





Code:
#!/usr/bin/sh

fix_config()
{
  if [ -r /etc/Config ] ; then
    awk '{FS=":"} FNR==NR {array[$1]=$2; next} {FS=" "} FNR!=NR {for (i in array) {gsub("^"i, array[i]) gsub("Test "i, "Test "array[i]) ; {if(toupper($0) ~ toupper(i)) {gsub("! Configuration for "toupper(i), "! Configuration for " toupper(array[i]))}}}} !/This is my conf/  1'  /etc/Mapping  /etc/Config  > Config.bk
  fi
}


fix_config



Thanks.........






thanks...

NAME

       Config::Model::models::LCDd - Configuration class LCDd

VERSION

       version 2.021

DESCRIPTION

       Configuration classes used by Config::Model

       LCDd.conf -- configuration file for the LCDproc server daemon LCDd

       This file contains the configuration for the LCDd server.

       The format is ini-file-like. It is divided into sections that start at markers that look like [section]. Comments are all line-based
       comments, and are lines that start with '

       The server has a 'central' section named [server]. For the menu there is a section called [menu]. Further each driver has a section which
       defines how the driver acts.

       The drivers are activated by specifying them in a driver= line in the server section, like:

	 Driver=curses

       This tells LCDd to use the curses driver.  The first driver that is loaded and is capable of output defines the size of the display. The
       default driver to use is curses.  If the driver is specified using the -d <driver> command line option, the Driver= options in the config
       file are ignored.

       The drivers read their own options from the respective sections.

       Model information extracted from template /etc/LCDd.conf

BUGS

       This model does not support to load several drivers. Loading several drivers is probably a marginal case. Please complain to the author if
       this assumption is false
