where I'm taking the 'id:' field from each record and inserting an
underscore and the id into the 'attributes' label directly above.
Any takers?
Thanks

I use awk instead of sed...
Reverse file order, perform changes using awk and reverse again
tac test.yml | awk '{if ($1=="id:"){idtag=substr($2,2,1)}; \
if ($1=="attributes:") {print "attributes_"idtag":"} \
else {print $0}}' | tac -

That was awesome...thanks...I learned a lot there.
I had to adjust the length of the substr function to get what I needed.
Thanks
Craig
I didn't think of numbers larger than 9 :-/ Here is an upgraded version
of my script.. modify the substr command slightly.. That will enable
numbers up to 10 chars long.
idtag=strtonum(substr($2,2,10))
