Can sed replace multiple occurrences in a single line?
by halfpower from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4QBVB)
I have the following string:
Code:ABCABCI want to output
Code:A B C A B CI've tried doing it this way:
Code:echo "ABCABC" | sed -E "s:(A)(B)(C)(.*):\1 \2 \3 \4:g"However, this produces
Code:A B C ABCIn my problem, the substring ABC can occur N times. Is sed capable of producing the desired output?
