The nested quoting is not needed in this cases, thus the previous version did work just fine. Never the less the usage is misleading, so just achieve nested quoting by using double quotes instead. Lower the probability of breakage in the future and make the code easier to read. NOTE: Just dropping the single quotes around the sed arguments would have also been possible.
