I need to add an additional blank line after the line 45 using sed
for example:
44 some text one
45 some text two
46 some text three
47 some text four
result:
44 some text one
45 some text two
46
47 some text three
48 some text four
I've tried to use
sed '45G' myfile.txt
but not seems to be working, it does prints content of the file on the screen but do not adds any space after the line 45
Using CentOS 7 minimal
You can do:
sed $'45 a \n' file.txt
$''
initiates C-style quoting, might be needed in some sed
while using \n
45 a \n
appends a newline (\n
) after (a
) the 45-th line
