You mean perseus=; is your prompt? Strange. Actually sed is a line based command and should add a newline, imho. You can simply use tr -d '\n'.
There are several quoting differences between plan9 sed and linux sed and I think the \+ operator doesn't work anyway in linux sed, but I might be wrong with this statement. cheers, ingo > Hello, > > is this as expected? > > perseus=; echo -n aaa | 9 sed 's/^/</' |tr -d '\n' > <aaa > perseus=; echo -n aaa | sed 's/^/</' > <aaaperseus=; > > > For me the linux sed does what I expect, > but not the p9p one (it adds a newline).
