Hey.
I know. This is probably really basic/subtle, but 'net searches are
coming up empty.
Doing testing of 'sed' it's generating tmp files in the base
directory. Is there a way that the 'sed' tmp dir can be set to
'/tmp'.
A sample sed cmd would be
sed -i '/foo/cat/g' abc.dat
sed -i '/foo/d' abc.dat
thanks..
One minor error
sed -i 's/foo/cat/g' abs.dat
ditto for abs.dat
Man page says:
s/regexp/replacement/
From "info sed":
The `s' command can be followed by zero or more of the following FLAGS:
`g' Apply the replacement to _all_ matches to the REGEXP, not just the first.

Nothing wrong with the trailing g.
Nor did I say it was the error.
The trailing g says make the change on every match in the line.
