Hey everyone,
I've read the man page and I've googled for about 30 minutes now and
have not found an answer.
I've got a file with thousands of lines like this:
Oct 21 04:01:05 10.0.0.1 id=name x=value y=value time="timestamp" ...
What I want to do is put a tab in front of every [a-z]{,4}. During my
googling I found that \t doesn't add a tab when used on the command line
so you have to create a sed script and use the tab key instead. My sed
script looks like this:
s/([a-z]{,4})=/ $1=/g
As far as I know I am using the correct regex to solve my problem but
when I run this script on my file I don't get any changes at all to the
output file. I've even tried:
s/([a-z])/zaq$1/g
Still nothing.
Can someone let me know what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks,
Chris.
