I'm trying to avoid reinventing any wheels here: does anybody know of an
easy way to scan an entire stream file for a string?
grep in qshell?
Maybe. Allow me to elaborate:
Somewhere, buried in the stream file of arbitrary length, there may or
may not be a string of the form
foo="<block of 20 characters>"
We don't know what <block of 20 characters> is, and that's what we want
to retrieve.
For example,
foo="A1B2C3D4E5F6G7H8I9J0"
or
foo="1J2I3H4G5F6E7D8C9B0A"
The object here is for a program, operating without any human
intervention, to find the string, and copy the block of 20 characters
into a *DTAARA.
Any ideas?
