it is working .. thank u
when to use -i option here ..
and also .. if the curval - is very complex with special chars within ..like --- "(/(test/*^^^'"232)|)"
in that, this may behave differently ..
please advice how to handle such cases .. and if there any space with the string ..

Unix OS
Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.
