Hi, I want to replace a string in a file, the problem is that the replacement is a variable, and this doesn't work. I could not get it working with sed nor with perl. Can anyone help me? ----------------------------------------- perl -pi'.bak' -e 's/ABC/$VAR/g' file.txt ----------------------------------------- sed 's/ABC/$VAR/' file.txt ----------------------------------------- It just replaces the string "ABC" with the string "$VAR" instead of replacing with the variable $VAR! Thanks a lot for your help! Marcel -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
