If you want to see some scary sed, then this was posted to the sed users
list. It is a reply to my question asking how to add that line
"Full author contact details available in file CREDITS"
after the last occurance of \author
/\\author/ !{
x
/\\author/ i\
*\
* Full author ...
x
}
h
The idea is that we on every lap save the line in the hold buffer.
Then we first match a pattern matching the block end-condition, and
then match the block condition before we insert anything. This is a
more general way to do something after a block.
This is in comparison to my hack (below). Ain't some things amazing?

# extract the number of the last \author line
LINES=`grep -n '[\]author' ${FILE}`
STATUS=$?
EXISTSALREADY=`grep 'Full author contact details' ${FILE}`
if [ ${STATUS} -eq 0 -a $? -ne 0 ]; then
LINES=`echo "${LINES}" | sed 's/\([0-9]*\):\(.*\)/\1/'`
LINE=`echo "${LINES}" | sed '$ !d'`
APPENDSCRIPT
fi
APPENDSCRIPT () {
# Must define ${SED} and ${LINE} in the main body of the script
cat - >> ${SED} <<EOF
# append this line after the last occurance of author
${LINE} a\\
*\\
* Full author contact details are available in file CREDITS
