What is Text Manipulation?
Text manipulation involves using command-line tools to search, filter, transform, and extract data from text files or streams. These utilities, such as grep, sed, awk, and cut, allow you to process large amounts of output, reformat configuration files, or parse logs directly within the terminal. By chaining these commands together through pipes, you can efficiently automate repetitive data processing tasks and gain quick insights into system information.
