Use the octal code for the character, and using the quoting
mechanism of your choice:
$ = octal 044
echo '123$45$678' | sed -e "s#\044#\\\044#g"

Subject: Re: OT: unix script quetion: to replace $ with \$
Hi, Brian:
Thanks for your (and others) help. I can not use signle quotes in "echo"
in my program. The reason is this:
I am trying to run table analyze in multiple treads (I found doing this
reduce time by 50%). By doing this I run sh script
"gather_ISI_table_stats_executeX.sh":
essex$ more gather_ISI_table_stats_executeX.sh
#!/bin/sh
sqlplus -s isi/password @/oracle/dba/get_ISI_tabs.sql | awk '{print "echo
\""$0"\
" | sqlplus -s isi/password"}' | /oracle/dba/executeX 3
Here executeX is a program to run multiple threads (3 in this case). The
script "get_ISI_tabs.sql" is just a script to get all the tables in the
schema. The problem is that there are Oracle Inter-Media tables like
DR$TEST_CONTEXT$R which makes this whole script fail. I can not seem to
find
a way to get around of this issue.
essex$ more get_ISI_tabs.sql
-- Script for listing analyze table commands in decreating size
-- of tables
-- Turn off heading
SET NEWPAGE 0
SET SPACE 1
SET LINESIZE 512
SET PAGESIZE 0
SET ECHO OFF
SET FEEDBACK OFF
SET HEADING OFF
select 'execute DBMS_STATS.GATHER_TABLE_STATS('''||owner||''','''||
segment_name||''',cascade => TRUE);'
from ( select owner,segment_name, sum(bytes) from dba_segments s
where segment_type like 'TABLE%' and
owner = 'ISI' and
s.partition_name is null
group by owner,segment_name
order by sum(s.bytes) desc);
exit;

Your first "echo" needs to be in single quotes or else it results in...
29912:oracle@mybox> echo "123$45$678"
123578
Once that is done this...
29912:oracle@mybox> echo '123$45$678' | sed 's/\$/\\$/g'
123\$45\$678
...or this...
29912:oracle@mybox> echo '123$45$678' | sed 's/\$/\\\$/g'
123\$45\$678
...will work

Hi:
I have a quick question about replacing "$" with "\$" on unix. I need to
convert string "123$45$678" to "123\$45\$678" through a pipe. I tried with
sed command, but could not get it to work:
essex$ echo "123$45$678" | sed s/"$"/"\$"/g
123578$
essex$ echo "123$45$678" | sed s/"$"/"\\$"/g
123578$
Maybe there is another syntax that I should use? TIA.
Guang Mei
