How do I program in shell script for write a word if it finds another word
I have a file named medpre.msg.log
Script should search for a word 'degenerated'
If it finds the word 'degenerated' , then it should write 'ECHT' on already existing file Mcheck.prot
How should I write the program, please help me . I am new to shell scripting
So that is the only error you see? Remember, just telling someone the answer won't really help them much for next time.
If someone wants to learn linux he would better solve such problems himself. So yes, I will show him a starting point. If there were other errors he should find them easily there are only 5 lines of codes to check.
