I want to replace create_testcreate_test in the file with #create_test#create_test if the next line contains psfxxx_16_pipsfxxx_16_pi. How can I do it with sed for the whole file containing this?

Input file content:

"create_test -type hard -outer { 1.0000 } {
psfxxx_16_pi/psfop/deadline_north_re_0 }

create_test -type hard -outer { 0.0000 } {
psfxxx_16_pi/psfop/deadline_south_re_1 }"

create_test -type hard -outer { 1.0000 } { \ psfxxx_16_pi/psfop/deadline_north_re_0 } create_test -type hard -outer { 0.0000 } { \ psfxxx_16_pi/psfop/deadline_south_re_1 }

Output file:

"#create_test -type hard -outer { 1.0000 } {
psfxxx_16_pi/psfop/deadline_north_re_0 }

#create_test -type hard -outer { 0.0000 } {
psfxxx_16_pi/psfop/deadline_south_re_1 }"

#create_test -type hard -outer { 1.0000 } { \ psfxxx_16_pi/psfop/deadline_north_re_0 } #create_test -type hard -outer { 0.0000 } { \ psfxxx_16_pi/psfop/deadline_south_re_1 }

psfxxx_16_pi/psfop/deadline_south_re_1 }"

Output file:

"#create_test -type hard -outer { 1.0000 } {
