Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting How to replace a word with a series of words in a file Post 99692 by vino on Tuesday 21st of February 2006 12:39:02 AM

The sed expression should be surrounded by double quotes.
Code:
sed "s/<FILENAME>/$MISSFILE/g" TL.body > Temp.txt

Or better yet
Code:
sed "s/.FILENAME./$MISSFILE/g" TL.body > Temp.txt

The . should take care of the meta-characters that need to be escaped.

mincdiff [-header|-body] [-l] [diff options] file1 file2 DESCRIPTION

You can view only the header differences using -header or only the body (image variable) differences using -body. The option -l is passed on to cmp of the image variable. Any unrecognized options (e.g. -u) are passed verbatim to the diff of the headers. OPTIONS
-header Compare only the headers of the two files. -body Compare only the image data of the two files. -l Print the byte offset in decimal and the byte value in octal for each difference encountered in the image variable. AUTHOR
