Package: sed
Version: 4.0.7-1
Severity: normal
Hi,
after reading #180914, I've searched in man sed and info sed for \'. I think
/usr/share/doc/sed/sedfaq.txt should maybe be mentioned in the section(s)
about regular expression.
Sedfaq says \' is the same as $, but I still don't understand why
echo "abc.xyz" | sed -e "s/\'.*//;"
deletes the entire line and just outputs a newline.
Yours,
Mike
