Hi I have a file try.SPEC. This file contains a word "Version: 1.0.0.1" . Now I want to write a shell script which will read the version number from keyboard and insert in the file. eg- if the user enters the version number as 2.1.1.1 then the file will have Version: 2.1.1.1" instead of "Version: 1.0.0.1". like this i want that i must be able to change irrespective of knowing what is the version number present in the spec file

Thanks Sunil Kumar Sahoo
