Full Discussion: Using = with sed to increase sequence count
Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Using = with sed to increase sequence count Post 303024210 by RudiC on Wednesday 3rd of October 2018 04:53:50 AM

Your (certainly simplified and thus non-representative) sample leans itself towards
Code:
sed 's/>ID/>seq /' file
>seq 1
AAAAAA
>seq 2
TTTTTT

EDIT: And here it is - the non-efficient but 100% sed solution (tadaaa!):


Code:
sed 'N; s/\n/#/' file | sed '=' | sed -r 'N; s/\n//; s/^([0-9]*)>ID[0-9]*#/>seq \1\n/'
>seq 1
AAAAAA
>seq 2
TTTTTT

or, even simpler,
Code:
sed 'N; s/^.*\n//' file | sed '=' | sed '/^[0-9]\+/ s/^/>seq /'

Don't change your input file structure and then complain it would not work ...

seq

SEQ(1)								   User Commands							    SEQ(1)

NAME

       seq - print a sequence of numbers

SYNOPSIS

       seq [OPTION]... LAST
       seq [OPTION]... FIRST LAST
       seq [OPTION]... FIRST INCREMENT LAST

DESCRIPTION

       Print numbers from FIRST to LAST, in steps of INCREMENT.

       -f, --format=FORMAT
	      use printf style floating-point FORMAT

       -s, --separator=STRING
	      use STRING to separate numbers (default: 
)

       -w, --equal-width
	      equalize width by padding with leading zeroes

       --help display this help and exit

       --version
	      output version information and exit

       If  FIRST  or  INCREMENT  is  omitted, it defaults to 1.  That is, an omitted INCREMENT defaults to 1 even when LAST is smaller than FIRST.
       FIRST, INCREMENT, and LAST are interpreted as floating point values.  INCREMENT is usually positive if FIRST  is  smaller  than	LAST,  and
       INCREMENT  is  usually  negative  if  FIRST  is	greater than LAST.  FORMAT must be suitable for printing one argument of type `double'; it
       defaults to %.PRECf if FIRST, INCREMENT, and LAST are all fixed point decimal numbers with maximum precision PREC, and to %g otherwise.
