Package: sed
Version: 4.2.1-9
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
Output the script in 'info sed "Centering lines"' to a file:.
% info sed "Centering lines" 2> /dev/null | \
sed -n '/#/,35p' | sed 's/^ //' > /tmp/sedcenter
% chmod +x /tmp/sedcenter
The script fails:
% echo hello | /tmp/sedcenter
/bin/sed: file /tmp/sedcenter line 12: strings for `y' command are
different lengths
Line #12:
%grep -n 'y/' /tmp/sedcenter
12:y/tab/ /
It looks as though #12 should behave as "tr '\t' ' '", but line #12
doesn't seem to work for the current version of 'sed'.
This would work:
s/\t/ /g
I'd include a patch, but it's not obvious whether the code in line #12
is wrong, or if 'sed' should be able to run it.
HTH...
