[SOLVED] append lines to specific line numbers

socalheel · 07-07-2014, 04:48 PM

what's the best way to cat a file and append the contents into another file at specific line numbers?

i know i can do it with sed, but i'm only experienced with doing one line at a time.

here is my goal.

i need to add this:

Code:

<IfModule mod_fcgid.c>
FcgidBusyTimeout 3600
FcgidIOTimeout    600
</IfModule>

starting at line 1002 in httpd.conf

Code:

sed -i '1002r inputfile.txt' httpd.conf
