Substitution using sed
I know we can substitute a string using sed but how?
For example: sed 's/(old variable)/(new variable)/ details.dat
Am I suppose to put $old variable or whatever? Because I tried many times, it didnt work by putting $old variable. Am I suppose to enclose it with "" or ''?
Please help
