Subject: [9fans] Sed label handling inconsistency
Date: Tue,  8 Jun 2010 11:06:30 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4c0e86a6.p9p6O5x091i4Q2WY%yard-ape@telus.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <146c961677a8e3b29413b0c39668652f@swcp.com>

P9P sed gives me the error "Label too long" on:

% echo foo | sed 's/./&/;ta;b;:a;s//*/'

but not on:

% echo foo | sed 's/./&/
ta
b
:a
s//*/'

As though the label commands require immediate newlines.

Anyone else experience this?
