It's like goto. Here's an infinite loop:

Hi,
Thanks for the info. With that in mind I have the following example
I'm having trouble unerstanding. Would you be able to help me out with
understanding it? What does the $b in context to the whole file and
executing the lines of code on the file. Also what does $!N mean? And
do I really need P;D?
sed -e '$b
/^Target\[[^]]*\][.0-9]*:.*@[0-9.]*$/ {
$!N
s/^\(Target\[[^]]*\][.0-9]*:.*@\)[0-9.]*\nDirectory\[[^]]*\]:
\(.*\)$/\1\2.example.com/
P;D
}' text_files/mrtg.cfg > text_files/mrtg.cfg.changed
Thanks for your help
Dan
