I think this is possible with vi editor , do anyone know how do i do
it.
As others have pointed out, this is easy to do without vi, but since you
asked, you could just use a macro.
Go to the first line in command mode and type
@qA@xxxxxxxxxxxx<Esc>j^q
(Replace @whatever.com with whatever domain name you want)
Then:
<Esc>:50@q
To apply the change to all lines
(where "50" is the number of remaining lines in the file)
Not as easy in this case as using cat or sed but this is, in-general a
useful technique when editing in vi
See :help q for more details.
