Substitution Flags: There are a number of other useful flags that can be passed in addition to the g flag, and you can specify more than one at a time. Flag g NUMBER p w FILENAME I or i M or m Description Replace all matches, not just the first match. Replace only NUMBERth match. If substitution was made, print pattern space. If substitution was made, write result to FILENAME. Match in a case-insensitive manner. In addition to the normal behavior of the special regular expression characters ^ and $, this flag causes ^ to match the empty string after a newline and $ to match the empty string before a newline. Using an Alternative String Separator: You may find yourself having to do a substitution on a string that includes the forward slash character. In this case, you can specify a different separator by providing the designated character after the s. $ cat /etc/passwd | sed 's:/root:/amrood:g' amrood:x:0:0:amrood user:/amrood:/bin/sh daemon:x:1:1:daemon:/usr/sbin:/bin/sh In the above example we have used : as delimeter instead of slash / because we were trying to search /root instead of simple root. Replacing with Empty Space: Use an empty substitution string to delete the root string from the /etc/passwd file entirely: $ cat /etc/passwd | sed 's/root//g' :x:0:0::/:/bin/sh daemon:x:1:1:daemon:/usr/sbin:/bin/sh Address Substitution: If you want to substitute the string sh with the string quiet only on line 10, you can specify it as follows: $ cat /etc/passwd | sed '10s/sh/quiet/g' root:x:0:0:root user:/root:/bin/sh daemon:x:1:1:daemon:/usr/sbin:/bin/sh bin:x:2:2:bin:/bin:/bin/sh TUTORIALS POINT Simply Easy Learning

The Matching Command: You would use p option along with -n option to print all the matching lines as follows: $ cat testing | sed -n '/root/p' root:x:0:0:root user:/root:/bin/sh [root@ip-72-167-112-17 amrood]# vi testing root:x:0:0:root user:/root:/bin/sh daemon:x:1:1:daemon:/usr/sbin:/bin/sh bin:x:2:2:bin:/bin:/bin/sh sys:x:3:3:sys:/dev:/bin/sh sync:x:4:65534:sync:/bin:/bin/sync games:x:5:60:games:/usr/games:/bin/sh man:x:6:12:man:/var/cache/man:/bin/sh mail:x:8:8:mail:/var/mail:/bin/sh news:x:9:9:news:/var/spool/news:/bin/sh backup:x:34:34:backup:/var/backups:/bin/sh Using Regular Expression: While matching pattern, you can use regular expression which provides more flexibility. Check following example which matches all the lines starting with daemon and then deleting them: $ cat testing | sed '/^daemon/d' root:x:0:0:root user:/root:/bin/sh bin:x:2:2:bin:/bin:/bin/sh sys:x:3:3:sys:/dev:/bin/sh sync:x:4:65534:sync:/bin:/bin/sync games:x:5:60:games:/usr/games:/bin/sh man:x:6:12:man:/var/cache/man:/bin/sh mail:x:8:8:mail:/var/mail:/bin/sh news:x:9:9:news:/var/spool/news:/bin/sh TUTORIALS POINT Simply Easy Learning
