Hei everyone!

I have this variable in shell containing paths separated by a space:

LINE="/path/to/manipulate1 /path/to/manipulate2"

I want to add additional path string in the beginning of the string and as well right after the space so that the variable will have the result something like this:

LINE="/additional/path1/to/path/to/manipulate1 additional/path2/to/path/to/manipulate2"

Any help appreciated Thanks in advance
