I have a text file (file A) that contains a list items, one two a line.
I wish to add any line in this file to file B unless that line is
already present. What would really make me happy was if there were a
special variable that evaluated to whatever SetLine was currently set
to; that way I could do this:
editfiles:
{ /path/to/file/B
ForEachLineIn "/path/to/file/A"
AppendIfNoLineMatching "$(imaginary_special_variable)"
EndLoop
}
Given that no such $(imaginary_special_variable) exists, does anybody
know of a good cfenginey way to do this in editfiles? I am trying to
avoid copping out and using modules or scripts if I can help it.
Thanks....
