I have completed the preliminary packaging of ssed. You can find lintian
clean packages at deb http://people.debian.org/~rganesan packages/. To
summarize
1. Source tarball regenerated by renaming sed-3.52 to ssed-3.52.
2. super-sed compiled with program prefix set to 's' so that binary is ssed
and man page is ssed.1
3. Info pages (sed.info*) have been renamed to ssed.info* and
cross-references suitably modified.
Both the man page and the info documentation refers to the program as sed
instead of ssed. If nobody has any objection I'll upload it to master
tomorrow.
