-
-<table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td>
-
- <i>Sed</i> copies the named <i>files</i> (standard input default) to the standard
- output, edited according to a script of commands. The <tt><font size=+1>&#8722;f</font></tt> option
- causes the script to be taken from file <i>sfile</i>; these options accumulate.
- If there is just one <tt><font size=+1>&#8722;e</font></tt> option and no <tt><font size=+1>&#8722;f</font></tt>&#8217;s, the flag <tt><font size=+1>&#8722;e</font></tt> may be
- omitted. The <tt><font size=+1>&#8722;n</font></tt> option suppresses the default
- output; <tt><font size=+1>&#8722;g</font></tt> causes all substitutions to be global, as if suffixed
- <tt><font size=+1>g</font></tt>.
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- A script consists of editing commands, one per line, of the following
- form:<br>
-
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td>
-
- [<i>address</i> [<tt><font size=+1>,</font></tt> <i>address</i>] ] <i>function</i> [<i>argument</i> ...]
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
-
- </table>
- In normal operation <i>sed</i> cyclically copies a line of input into
- a <i>pattern space</i> (unless there is something left after a <tt><font size=+1>D</font></tt> command),
- applies in sequence all commands whose <i>addresses</i> select that pattern
- space, and at the end of the script copies the pattern space to
- the standard output (except under <tt><font size=+1>&#8722;n</font></tt>) and deletes the
- pattern space.
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- An <i>address</i> is either a decimal number that counts input lines
- cumulatively across files, a <tt><font size=+1>$</font></tt> that addresses the last line of
- input, or a context address, <tt><font size=+1>/</font></tt><i>regular-expression</i><tt><font size=+1>/</font></tt>, in the style
- of <a href="../man7/regexp.html"><i>regexp</i>(7)</a>, with the added convention that <tt><font size=+1>\n</font></tt> matches a newline
- embedded in the pattern space.
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- A command line with no addresses selects every pattern space.
-
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- A command line with one address selects each pattern space that
- matches the address.
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- A command line with two addresses selects the inclusive range
- from the first pattern space that matches the first address through
- the next pattern space that matches the second. (If the second
- address is a number less than or equal to the line number first
- selected, only one line is selected.) Thereafter the process is
- repeated, looking again for the first address.
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- Editing commands can be applied to non-selected pattern spaces
- by use of the negation function <tt><font size=+1>!</font></tt> (below).
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- An argument denoted <i>text</i> consists of one or more lines, all but
- the last of which end with <tt><font size=+1>\</font></tt> to hide the newline. Backslashes
- in text are treated like backslashes in the replacement string
- of an <tt><font size=+1>s</font></tt> command, and may be used to protect initial blanks and
- tabs against the stripping that is done on every script line.
-
- <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
-
- An argument denoted <i>rfile</i> or <i>wfile</i> must terminate the command
- line and must be preceded by exactly one blank. Each <i>wfile</i> is
- created before processing begins. There can be at most 120 distinct
- <i>wfile</i> arguments.<br>
- <tt><font size=+1>a\<br>
