If the line had Escape sequence like (\) in Url it is ignoring in output, but i need that (\) for my Application configuration.
Similarly If the line start with (#) we need to ignore the line, with out sed operation
Could you please check on this,
Thanks in Advance JB
I don't understand!
First, please use code tags around the file contents; not around the contents AND the descriptions of the contents.
Second, are you saying that your input files contain code to change font and color; or is that just something you added to confuse us? Do we really have to parse the font and color changes within these lines so we not only copy changes to text but also possible changes to font, color, boldness, and italicization?
Third, you say that comment lines are to be ignored, but instead of ignoring them in the output, you add a space to the start of comment lines??? What do you mean by ignore: Do not change comment lines, or delete comment lines?
Fourth why would you limit us to using sed for this? Your specification of what is supposed to happen is ambiguous, but it seems that awk would be a much better tool for this job.

File2 had the values like this: After the running the sed command File1 should be:
But i am getting the value like below in File1:

Thank you for fixing the code tags.
Please answer the remaining questions:

Having a doubt on how Function keys are mapped.
1. In my HPUX box my infocmp shows that kf1 (F1 key mapping) is not mapped. But somehow I am able to use an Informix form which requires navigation using F1 keys.
