I’m relatively new to bash scripting and am
looking for the best way to make changes to a line in a file.
For instance, if some file contains a line:
...
OPTION=“—option1 —option2 param —option3 —option4”
...
What would be the best combination of utilities
to:
- Find that line in the file (assume it’s the only line with the string ‘OPTION’
append to the option string so it’s now:
OPTION=“—option1 —option2 param —option3 —option4”
Any help on which are the right tools to accomplish the job would be helpful! Thanks :)
