roopurt18 Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 Does linux have a command similar to preg_replace()? I have a grep command dumping output into a file but I'd like to reformat the output by replacing certain bits of text (found with regexps) with other bits of text to make viewing in a web browser more convenient. Thanks! Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/55324-preg_replace-for-command-line/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
effigy Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 There's sed, but it doesn't have the full-blown capabilities of PCRE. Perl's command line is your best bet.

solarisuser Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Since I'm a big PHP user, I just install PHP on my machine, and then use preg_replace on the command line. It works great on the Windows and Linux platforms.
