modify a profile

[vti]

Hi all
I am trying to put some lines into users profiles .For example ;

aaaaaaaa#
bbbbbbbb#
trap "" 2 3 5 15
cccccccc#
dddddddd#

and i want to put a path of scipt line between bbbbbbbb# and "trap line" like ;

aaaaaaaa#
bbbbbbbb#
./usr/users/user1/script
trap "" 2 3 5 15
cccccccc#
dddddddd#

Profiles are not same for all users.But i can put script path under the trap line for all users.Is it possible?

Is this what you want?

{
  if ($1 == "trap") {
    print "./usr/users/user1/script"
  }
  print
}

Hope this helps. CaKiwi

You need to run it using awk as follows.

awk -f tobetween.scr .profile

Use

mv tmp.profile .profile
