How to replace a word with a series of words in a file
Hi,
I have a Template file 'TL.body' which says as follows:
"There are no <FILENAME> files on the server. "
The missing file names are identified and stored in a variable.
For Eg: MISSFILE="abc.txt def.txt xyz.txt"
I want the values of MISSFILE variable to be replaced against <FILENAME> and store the result in another Temp file.
I tried using the following command:
sed 's/<FILENAME>/'$MISSFILE'/g' TL.body > Temp.txt
However, it gives following error:
sed: Function s/<FILENAME>/abc.txt cannot be parsed.
Could somebody help me out to overcome this problem.
TIA
Regards,
Ramesh

able. You can view only the header differences using -header or only the body (image variable) differences using -body. The option -l is
