I want to find the first comment line that begins with a target string in column 1 (#target) and replace only that first target line with another string. There are multiple lines that begin with #target. I've struck out with sed (not that I know sed).
Any quick hints on a sed or awk or ?? sequence that does that? -------------------------------------------------------- This e-mail, including any attachments, may be confidential, privileged or otherwise legally protected.
