[HECnet] Easiest way to do 'sed' type search and replace on VMS...

This is in a script though, not sure I really want to start scripting vim.. sampsa On 9 Feb 2013, at 07:14, Dan B <dibi58 at gmail.com> wrote: Would not be easier to use vi, (maybe was vim?,) ? I don't remember how it ended up there, but we had vi on all VMS boxes, it is the same syntax of sed and ed, like 1,$s/something/somethingelse/ On 2/8/13, Sampsa Laine <sampsa at mac.com> wrote: I'm thinking of tweaking the HECNET infoservice* on RHESUS, and figured it'd be nice if the nodes in the output of NCP SHOW KNOWN NODES were hyperlinks. On Unix I would just replace all the "(" characters with an opening <a> + "(" tag and all the ")" with a closing </a> tag + ")" using sed. What's the correct DCL way to do this? sampsa * This is the page I'm thinking of tweaking: http://rhesus.sampsa.com/cgi-bin/hecnetinfo/hecnetinfo.com
