Well, the situation has changed, your tokens have special characters in them, and you need to escape all of them. See the sample below and make the proper changes to your code.

awk -F= '/@TAG_1@/ <---- ( In case you missed it ) This must be ----> /@A_S_N@/ {$0=$1"="v1}
# same thing for the other lines, put actual token names !

Here is one of the header of one of the actual scripts for an example.
Some of those aren't inside the tags and I'm only looking to replace the tags, not entire variable names. And as you can see some variables are made up of multiple tags b/c those shorter tags may be used in other parts of the script as well. But the variable is not needed, just part of it(the tag).
There are only two tags that will have something besides a number or letter, and that's the @BEA_INSTALL_DIR@ and the @USER_HOME@ directory.
