Find String and Replace with SUBSTRING
I have the file like this. ex.(test.txt)
$$BATCHCTRL=TEST-012017
$$STATE=CA AZ
$$FROM_DATE=01/10/2017
$$TO_DATE=01/30/2017
All I need to do is replace this $$STATE=CA AZ
with first TWO bytes of this value.
i.e(CA
).
The output file should be
$$BATCHCTRL=TEST-012017
$$STATE=CA
$$FROM_DATE=01/10/2017
$$TO_DATE=01/30/2017
text-processing command-line
