I have the following question about sed and methacaracters: In the eg number 1, I escaped the +, to get any matches with 1 plus (1 or more characters) In the eg number 2, I escaped the *, to get any matches with 0 or more characters, but it scape the * and takes it at literal.
Why it doesn't take + literal as well? How does it really works? Any help? 1.) sed -ne '/t\+/Ip' tango tango > repeated balada > non repeated 2.) sed -ne '/t\*/Ip' t8 t* t* -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/%22Sed%22-Question-tp25890151p25890151.html Sent from the Gnu - Bash mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
