Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Help to find two pattern in vi editor Post 302898790 by Don Cragun on Thursday 24th of April 2014 03:03:06 AM

The vi utility is not intended for use in scripts. What do you intend to do once you have found BDBO and sh.help?

Are you looking for BDBO before sh.help on the same line in a file? Are you looking for both on the same line in any order? Are you looking for sh.help on a line in the file after a line that contains BDBO?

What do you want to happen if there is more than one occurrence of these strings in a file?
