Inserting a line to a file
Hi,
consider a file called mobile.txt as follows:
Quote:
Type:family,Loc=North
001,PLAN1,30Days
002,PLAN2,25Days
Type:lovers,Loc=South
003,PLAN3,60Days
004,PLAN4,60Days
Type:friends,Loc=West
007,PLAN7,45Days
Type:lovers,Loc=East
003,PLAN3,60Days
004,PLAN4,60Days
005,PLAN5,60Days
For type lovers, add a new line at the end of it by copying its previous line and add a +1 to the field1, field2
Additionally, there are only 3 plans available to lovers type, so it should not work for lovers type already having 3 lines under it (no need bother about what PLAN). Here it should copy "004,PLAN4,60Days" from lovers type with Loc=South and add +1 to field1 and field2; place that line to next of it.
Output: (highlighted will be the line added to this file).

Type:family,Loc=North
001,PLAN1,30Days
002,PLAN2,25Days
Type:lovers,Loc=South
003,PLAN3,60Days

005,PLAN5,60Days
Type:friends,Loc=West
007,PLAN7,45Days
Type:lovers,Loc=East
003,PLAN3,60Days
004,PLAN4,60Days
005,PLAN5,60Days
Kindly help me out with this script.

NAME
bwild - Bacula's 'wildcard' engine
SYNOPSIS
bwild [options] -f <data-file>
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the bwild command.
This is a simple program that will allow you to test wild-card expressions against a file of data.
OPTIONS
A summary of options is included below.
-? Show version and usage of program.
-d nn Set debug level to nn.
-dt Print timestamp in debug output
-f <data-file>
The data-file is a filename that contains lines of data to be matched (or not) against one or more patterns. When the program is
run, it will prompt you for a wild-card pattern, then apply it one line at a time against the data in the file. Each line that
matches will be printed preceded by its line number. You will then be prompted again for another pattern.
Enter an empty line for a pattern to terminate the program. You can print only lines that do not match by using the -n option, and
you can suppress printing of line numbers with the -l option.
-n Print lines that do not match
-l Suppress lines numbers.
-i use case insensitive match.
