Hi all,
I have a lot of similar files that i have to update.
I need an unix script that scan all these file, looking for old templet and replace it with new one.
for example:
I have two similar files, file#1 .ex and file#2.ex
i need a scrip that scan these two flies and will replace 0101 templet with 1010 11 templet.
Old files:
file#1 .ex
0000
0101
1001
file#2 .ex
0000
0101
1111
New files:
file#1 .ex
0000
1010 11
1001
file#2 .ex
0000
1010 11
1111

Have you tried sed?
sed -e 's/0101/1010 11/' oldfile > newfile
