This question already has an answer here:
Insert line after first match using sed
6 answers
I want to add the words "Getting started" to two markdown files (so the extension is .md). They are named:
* installing-disqus.md
* installing-google-analytics.md
I would like to populate that word right after the line "Tags: " so the outcome would be "Tags: Getting started"
In Bash, what command would I write. I am thinking it would look something like this:
echo "Getting started" >> *installing* *Tags:*
bash echo

You could use sed to do a find and replace. Since you want the words added after Tags: (assumming there is only one such line) you could run:
sed -i “s/Tags:/Tags:<your text here>/g” <filename>
-i means that it will do the changes in the file
s/ means it will do a substitution
/
/g do this substitution in the whole file

This is headed in the right direction. How would I do it with two files Andrei? Both files start with "installing" and and in ".md" - "installing-disqus.md" and "installing-google-analytics.md"

You can use the wildcard operator “*” but better yet read this answer stackoverflow.com/a/10446276/10632970 .
