Re: How to add ' (comma) at the begining and end of each line? Ei

[Mladen Gogala]

I'll refrain from answering. My non-rtfm answer would neither be sed  
nor awk. If I responded , my response would be something like:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
while (<>) {
  s/^/'/;
  s/$/'/;
  print;
}

Since there has been an AWK reply, there should be a SED reply too.
(Perl?  What's Perl?)
sed "s/^/'/; s/\$/'/" your_file

sed 's/^/'\''/; s/$/'\''/' your_file
