Gaurav,

You can look at $man sed for more options for the right syntax.

I think its $ sed 'pattern /a\ ' filename

or to make it much simpler you can also use >> operator, from the basic unix commands.

Hi,

Maybe you could try using,

echo "\r" >> myfile

to append a carriage return or

echo "\n" >> myfile

to append a new line.
