Need Advise in writing a Shell script using sed
 

Hey folks,

I have came across a question to create a script that shows lines containing trailing white spaces from a file implementing the sed editor.

My question is how do I check for trailing whitespaces using sed.

Footnote: sed always drives me crazy! :banghead:

Cheers.

what have you tried? How sed drives you crazy?
you need to construct a regexp to find lines containing trailing whitespaces. You can find a lot of pages by google, like this: https://www.linkedin.com/groups/SED-...299.S.77877460

Hey pan64,

Thanks for the URL... I'll check those and see if it helps.

Cheers.
