Anyone in the position to convert below script which is using *sed* to a script using *awk*. Basically, we are adding *unrecoverable, path ddumps/../../dataciti_master *and* append* to existing ctl files. This is very urgent.

I believe this is off-topic here ...
Anyway (backup your data before running the script, or just change /mv /to /cp/):


... and this will take care of eventual pathological characters in your ctl filenames.


awk 'END { close(fn); system("mv " fn " " ofn) }
FNR == 1 {
  if (fn) { close(fn); system("mv \47" fn "\47 \47" ofn "\47") }
  print "unrecoverable" > (fn = FILENAME "__new")
  ofn = FILENAME
  }
{
  sub(/infile \47/, "&/DDUMPS/sybase_dump/out/DATACITI_MASTER/Oracle/")
  /into table/ && $0 = "append " $0; print > fn
  }' *.ctl
