Hello:

I have several text script files where password is clearly mentioned. Below is just as an example. I am looking for a regex where I can find the phrase “password� and replace the matching line with some string ex. Password removed. Contact admin at ext 10101 or just wanted to delete line completely.


Thanks in advanced.

Sample original Text

snmp-server community public
snmp-server password public
snmp-server enable traps isdn
snmp-server host 172.16.1.27 version 2c public
snmp-server host 172.16.1.111 version 1 public
snmp-server host 172.16.1.33 public

Sample output Text

Hi, ben_josephs,

Thanks a lot; it's truly mind blowing , I would apprentice if you can give me some little more direction.

in my example; if their line has phrased "snmp" & "isdn"; I need to put some instruction in next line. However, I also want intact matched phrase line .

Again, Thanks in advanced.

Then you are not using TextPad.

That's true; I am in Tokyo and it's over mid-night here. So I don't want o walk-up i7 to disturb other. I used to TextPad a lot 5 years ago. But now I am far from software development. I am occasionally using TextPad for the macro or bulks changes. i need integrated telnet/ssh with TextPad. But it's not a realistic demand. i gave a shot to WildEdit but i may need some more time to familiar with it.

If possible i need some direction for two cases.

CASE-I: How to delete all the lines with does not contain a particular phrase.

CASE-II: I need some help to get desired output. seems i am missing very small element here.
