Right.. but again (as I stated) in case people ignore my posting, you need
the g on the end of the s statement in case there's more than one thing to
replace on a line :) If there isn't, it's not a problem
cat logfile.txt | sed 's/+0100/-0500/g' > anotherfile.txt
The above command will parse logfile.txt, change things as you wish with
the sed command (I believe this will work), and send the output to
anotherfile.txt. The 's' at the beginning starts the s statement and the
'g' at the end tells sed n
