Description

Sed & Awk is a comprehensive guide to two essential text processing programs for UNIX programmers.

sed is a powerful 'stream editor' that allows you to edit large streams of text, while awk is a complete programming language that enables you to specify what kind of data you're interested in and the operations to be performed when that data is found.

This edition covers features of sed and awk mandated by the POSIX standard, including new variables and functions such as CONVFMT, toupper(), and tolower(). It also introduces GNU sed, a newly available feature from the first edition. With detailed explanations and example scripts, this book provides in-depth coverage of both programs.
