Hi,
I am using sed change command in a script.
In a file i need to change a particular line.
This is the command I am using.
sed '/^export INFO_PASSWORD/ c\
export INFO_PASSWORD="'$var'"' $PRICER_DIR$TEST_FILE >$INFO_ENV_FILE
The problem is when the variable
var=\/JAH>80\?A@pmJ, the backslash charatcer is not appended. Hence the full value is not changed in the script. The value appended is without the backslash(/JAH>80\?A@pmJ). I tried using escape character , but does not seem to work. Please let me know the solution for the same.
