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

(Perl? What's Perl?)
sed "s/^/'/; s/\$/'/" your_file
sed 's/^/'\''/; s/$/'\''/' your_file

Oh, and I almost forgot a ksh example
(Perl? What's Perl?)
cat your_file | while read LINE; do echo "'$LINE'"; done
Or
while read LINE; do echo "'$LINE'"; done < your_file

Hi List
I have 1000 lines in my data file. I want to add
'(comma) at the begining and end of each line.
