I'm trying to use sed to do something like: # sh function.sh "something = yes" "something = no" file # cat function.sh #!/bin/sh # this is function.sh
function ( ) { sed 's/$1/$2/g' $3 > $3.tmp } function # end of function.sh I want to give 3 arguments to the script function.sh, then have these arguments be "applied" to the function and run within sed. It doesn't seem to like the $# strings within SED. Am I missing something or is this not do-able in SED? I tried escaping $ and using quotes without luck.
