hello there,
trying to execute this script [createABQ]
echo "input:" $1
sed -i "s/CPS3/DC2D3/g" $1
in such a way:
*sh createABQ A400X03_bwr_2_120.inp *
I get following error
input: A400X03_bwr_2_120.inp
: No such file or directory_2_120.inp
: No such file or directory
: command not found
many thanks for any help!

I copied all you did and do NOT get any problem.
So I cannot recreate the problem. Makes it difficult to help, but for you it may be a new fact.
Hope this helps a very little bit.
Edited because I’m completely stupid and did not read the question properly.
What you are doing will work.

I have to assume you are using bash…
“echo” prints to the console, you need “read”; e.g.
echo "Input:\c"
read $f
sed -i "s/CPS3/DC2D3/g" $f

No, it’s a shell script he’s running, so $1 comes from the argument to the script. And anyway, your answer is wrong, it should be:
read f
no $.
Ken,
Yes and yes. Have sort of edited my reply. A case of leaping in (again) too soon before properly reading what is clearly in front of my eyes.
Age, stupidity and beer probably contribute.
Thanks for being omniscient…
