First, the '\' characters are unnecessary and confusing, except the
one that precedes the semi-colon.
Second, that won't work. Sed does not perform on files in place - its
output is sent to stdout unless it is redirected, and you can't
redirect it back to the original file. To do something this way,
you'd need a script that replaced the input file and used 'sed' to
generate the new one (and then the script would have to rename it).
