Inserting a string at the end of a

Comment:

Hi folks, Using sed and/or awk, how would I insert a text string (from a korn script) after a string that's at the end of a file. I'm having trouble creating a newline and inserting the text string after the line in a shell script. Thx

Why do you have to use sed or awk? You said it needs to be appended to the end of the file. Why not just use: print "<string value>" >> <filename>
