When you say "it doesn't work", what exactly do you mean? Do you get an
error message?
Although the command shows nothing on the terminal.. and there is no
change in the file...too......
In your original post your said:
] sed -e 's/$/ ,0/' abc.txt > new_abc.txt
works, but when you use the long file names it doesn't. Your headers show
some form of windoze - what operating system are you using, and what shell?
The two long filenames (and the intervening space and redirect) are 105
characters, 123 if you add the command itself. Could you be getting caught
in a line-wrap or line-length situation thanks to some "user friendly" shell
setting?
