sed question
 
Hello, I have a file which has lines like this
'/images/gallery/wow_yeah.jpg,

what I want to do is remove the ', and put in front a url, for example
http://madeup.com/images/gallery/wow_yeah.jpg,

I been messing around with sed and awk with no luck, and help would be appricated.

Have problems with (') character.

sed "s|^[^/]*\\(/[^,]*\\),*\$|http://madeup.com\\1|"

Two other, simpler, ways:
Code:
sed 's|^\x27|http://someurl.com|' file.txt
sed 's|^'\\''|http://someurl.com|' file.txt
