Shell Script to Delete part text of a line if pattern matches

hmmm....that is a valid point. I'll bring that to their attention.

But i might end up being told to stick to the plan. (making them work in HP-UX)....sorry for being a pessimist.

Just a smart thought, will they be able to figure out ;-) if you change it on linux and copy back

What version of HP UX is that ?
Do you have perl on Both HP-UX and LINUX ?
Which version of perl is there on HP-UX.

Yes. THey would.

its HP-UX B.11.11
Yes. Perl exists on both.
on HP-UX it is v5.8.0 built for PA-RISC1.1-thread-multi

Then I would recommend to write a small script in perl.

I modified the syntax in the script to match with HP-UX and it is working fine now. THnx
