Search for a Keyword in file and replace another keyword or add at the end of line

Hi

I want to implement something like this:

if( keyword1 exists)
then
check if(keyword2 exists in the same line)
then replace keyword 2 with New_Keyword
else
Add New_Keyword at the end of line
end if


eg:

Check for Keyword JUNGLE and add/replace VALUES(TIGER,LION):
Here JUNGLE is Keyword1 and VALUES is Keyword2 and VALUES(TIGER,LION) is New_Keyword.

Lines in INPUT File
Code:
JUNGLE Hello WORLD VALUES(DEER,WOLF),
RIVER Hello WORLD,
JUNGLE Hello WORLD,

In Line 1, we can have any values inside ().
Expected OUTPUT File
Code:
JUNGLE Hello WORLD VALUES(TIGER,LION),
RIVER Hello WORLD,
JUNGLE Hello WORLD VALUES(TIGER,LION),

In Line 1, we over write the existing values.
In Line 3, we added values at the end.
In Line 2, no changes required and keyword JUNGLE is missing in the line.

Let me know if more clarity is required.

CXXTESTGEN(1)							    User Manual 						     CXXTESTGEN(1)

NAME
cxxtestgen - Generates test source files for CxxTest SYNOPSIS
cxxtestgen [options] [-o output] <file> ... DESCRIPTION
This script parses the files provided and generates an output source file that can be build with traditional compiler to produce the test- runner executable. OPTIONS
-h --help Show help message and exit. --version Write the CxxTest version. -o NAME --output=NAME Write output to file NAME. -w WORLD --world=WORLD The label of the tests, used to name the XML results. --include=HEADER Include file HEADER in the test runner before other headers. --abort-on-fail Abort tests on failed asserts (like xUnit). --main=MAIN Specify an alternative name for the main() function. --headers=FILENAME Specify a filename that contains a list of header files that are processed to generate a test runner. --runner=CLASS Create a test runner that processes test events using the class CxxTest::CLASS. The currently available runners are: - ErrorPrinter This is the standard error printer, which formats its output to the standard output stream (std::cout). Same as --error-printer. - ParenPrinter Identical to ErrorPrinter except that it prints line numbers in parantheses. This is the way Visual Studio expects it. - StdioPrinter The same as ErrorPrinter except that it uses printf instead of std::cout. - XmlPrinter Print test results to an XML file. - XUnitPrinter This test listener generates output using both ErrorPrinter and XmlPrinter. Same as --xunit-printer. --gui=CLASS Create a GUI test runner that processes test events using the class CxxTest::CLASS. (deprecated) --error-printer Create a test runner using the ErrorPrinter class, and allow the use of the standard library. --xunit-printer Create a test runner using the XUnitPrinter class. --xunit-file=XUNIT-FILE The file to which the XML summary is written for test runners using the XUnitPrinter class. The default XML filename is TEST-<WORLD>.xml, where <WORLD> is the value of the --world option. (default: cxxtest) --have-std Use the standard library (even if not found in tests). --no-std Do not use standard library (even if found in tests). --have-eh Use exception handling (even if not found in tests). --no-eh Do not use exception handling (even if found in tests). --longlong=TYPE Use TYPE as for long long integers. The default is for 'no' long long integer type to be specified, which is consistent with the current C++ standard. --no-static-init Do not rely on static initialization in the test runner. --template=TEMPLATE Generate the test runner using file TEMPLATE to define a template. --root Write the main() function and global data for a test runner. --part Write the tester classes for a test runner. -f --fog-parser Use new FOG C++ parser (Python 2.7 is required).
