sed系列:pattern buffer和hold buffer

As its name implies, sed hold buffer is used to save all or part of the sed pattern space for subsequent retrieval.
The contents of the pattern space can be copied to the hold space, then back again.
No operations are performed directly on the hold space. sed provides a set of hold and get functions to handle these movements.

Sed h function
The h (hold) function copies the contents of the pattern space into a holding area (also called as sed hold space), destroying any previous contents of the holding area.

Sed H function
The H function appends the contents of the pattern space to the contents of the holding area. The former and new contents are separated by a newline.

Sed g function
The g function copies the contents of the holding area into the pattern space, destroying the previous contents of the pattern space.

Sed G function
The G function appends the contents of the holding area to the contents of the pattern space. The former and new contents are separated by a newline. The maximum number of addresses is two.

Sed x function
The exchange function interchanges the contents of the pattern space and the holding area. The maximum number of addresses is two.

1.First line will be placed into the hold space as it is.
2.From the 2nd line onwards, just append the hold space content with the pattern space. (Remember 2nd line is in pattern space, and 1st line is in hold space).
3.Now 1st and 2nd line got reversed and move this to the hold space.
4.Repeat the above steps till last line.
5.Once the last line is reached, just append the hold space content with the pattern space and print the pattern space.

1.Till the empty line comes, keep appending the non empty lines into the hold space
2.When empty line comes i.e paragraph ends, exchange the data between pattern and hold space. So that whole paragraph will be available in pattern space.
Check if pattern “Administration” is available, if yes don’t delete it i.e print the pattern space
例4:输出模式匹配的前一行
$ sed -n '/Mysql/{g;1!p;};h' thegeekstuff.txt
#Database

For each cycle, place the line into hold buffer, if it doesn’t match with the pattern “Mysql”.
If the line matches with the pattern, get the data from the hold space(previous line) using g command and print it.
In case, if the first line matches with the pattern “Mysql”,anyway hold space will be empty.(There is no previous line to the first line).So first line should not get printed(1!p)

例5:删除每个段落的最后一行
$ sed -n -e '/^$/{x;d}' -e '/./x;p' thegeekstuff.txt

If the line is not empty,then exchange the line between pattern and hold space. So first line will be placed in the hold space.
When next non empty line comes, exchange the pattern space and hold space, and print the pattern space. i.e first non empty line will be printed and 2nd line goes to hold. And in next cycle, 2nd non empty line is printed when 3rd line goes to hold and goes on like this.
When empty line comes (previous line to the empty line will be available in hold buffer) just exchange pattern and hold space, and delete the line (last line of the paragraph) and start the next cycle.

$
Place the first line in Hold buffer.
When the second line comes, append to Hold space (first line)
Then exchange pattern and hold buffer. So now pattern space will have first and second line separated by \n, Hold space will have only second line.
So interchange the lines in the pattern space.
The above steps happens till the end of the file

1.When the first line of a block is met (beginning with #)
keep that line to the Hold Space via command `h’
Then delete using ‘d’ to start another cycle.
2.For the rest lines of a block, Command `G’ appends the tag line from the
Hold Space and substitute command interchanges tag and lines properly.
