Re: [9fans] p9p sed vs linux sed

[Ingo Krabbe <ikrabbe.ask@gmail.com>]

You mean perseus=; is your prompt? Strange.

Actually sed is a line based command and should add a newline, imho. You can simply use tr -d '\n'.

There are several quoting differences between plan9 sed and linux sed and I think the \+ operator doesn't work anyway in linux sed, but I might be wrong with this statement.
