All POSIX shells support it and it's widestly used (eg. autoconf generated configure scripts internally use it) ... > Every example I found in what I currently had > checked out of CVS (perl, subversion, rt3) uses sed. POSIX. sed is required to be available by POSIX, so it's safe to use it and very portable. Using perl (or awk or ...) instead of sed for string substitutions are options, but making it mandatory is nothing but overengineering and basically sense-free. Choose the tool you're familiar with, for most perl packagers this will be perl, but I prefer to use sed ;) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
