Hi Rudic ,

Thanks a lot but in my original file , I am having lots of places where )); is coming so I need to search for the chip_top alist and )); pattern and want to add the FILE3 content after that .

Could you help me out in achieving that ?

How about
Code:
sed -e '/chip top alist/,/));/{/));/ r file2' -e'}; ' file1

Make sure your regex matches the file's contents (it doesn't in port#1)
