subtitle...fun with sed I have a list of changes to make to a file... dc rc ------------- ------- 15T6145V DELETED NATL19502 DELETED Q10MR11/FL12V DELETED Q1500T3/CL120 DELETED and things work until I get to the 3rd item which has a forward slash and it fails to substitute with commands like below... sed -i "s%${dc}%${rc}%g" ARsalesorderdetails.csv and sed -i "s/${dc}/${rc}/g" ARsalesorderdetails.csv The latter producing error on screen... sed: -e expression #1, char 17: unknown option to `s' While the former simply doesn't complain but doesn't make the change either. Is there a way to coerce sed to identify & replace strings with a / inside?
