bash - insert single quote with sed -

-

i want add text on line:

sudo sed -i '5imytext 16/16' /file

now i've added mytext 16/16 on line 5 of file want add text 'mytext' 16/16 (mytext between single quotes)

i tried

sudo sed -i '5i'mytext' 16/16' /file

but didn't work. can me?

the single quotes you're trying use in insertion string interfering ones around sed command.

the simplest thing use different quotes around sed command:

"5i'mytext' 16/16"

normally it's best use single quotes around sed command more tricky in case:

'5i'"'"'mytext'"'"' 16/16'

basically, need put single quotes inside double quotes somehow , in case there's no reason not double quote whole command.

as suggested 123 in comments, alternative put sed command script file:

5i'mytext' 16/16

then use -f switch sed:

sed -f script

this avoids need use 2 kinds of quotes.
