Changing value using 1 shell command
Hello all,

I would like to know how to change a value in my file.txt with 1 command. Using sed seems impossible since it contains \n and \s...

For example:
Code:
  player:
    version: V6R2013xD3HF5v1
  partchecker:
    version: 6.142.1-rc6
  player_old:
    version: V6R2013xD3HF5v1
  manager:
    version: V6R2013xD3HF5v1

Here, I would like change the version number of "partchecker" without change all other version values and keeping the file structure (new line, space...).

Thank you guys,
