You treat it just like sed (see "man sed") for the most part, except that
when you give it filenames, instead of reciting their content to stdout,
edited, it rewrites each file with those edits. It uses sed internally
to do the work.
So this:
sed 's/this/that/g' file
write "file"'s content to stdout with "this" replaced by "that".
This:
bsed 's/this/that/g' file
edits the file itself the same way.
Very handy for large scale simple changes.
Cheers,
