Insert Data Into Text File

[eusanpe]

Hello all,

I am hoping someone can help me with something I am trying to do.

I have a lot of files that have data as such...

Description:
This is a description test
This is a description test2
;;

Summary:
This is a test
This is a second test
This is a third test
;;

Keywords: data, data1
;;


Or it could be:

Description: This is a description test
This is a description test2
;;

Summary: This is a test
This is a second test
This is a third test
;;

Keywords: data, data1
;;

What I am wanting to do is insert the following text after the "Summary:" and all the text and before the ";;" terminator to all the files.

We actually have funtoo articles on how to use awk that I originally wrote for IBM developerWorks. They cover this. It's a three-part series starting here:
