I want to replace a variable in a shell script, like the following line:
export NAME=FOO_1 #bla bla
Change FOO_1 to BAR one.
I tried following, none is working the way I want.
1) sed -i s/NAME=[a-zA-Z]\w*$/NAME=BAR_1/ file
2) sed -i s/NAME=[a-zA-Z]\w*/NAME=BAR_1/ file
1) did not found match
2) it replaced FOO_1 to BAR_1OO_1
Thanks in advance
