If I run a script with this command (should search somefile and

      sed -i  -e 's/UPSCABLE usb/UPSCABLE ether' <somefile>

It produces the error:

      sed: -e expression #1, char 29: unterminated `s' command
Are you sure you have the closing slash?  It should be in the format s///
Or you can use other characters besides slash (/).

I don't quite understand.  How would you re-write my sample command?
