original mail: Q1. Querying info sed reveals the expression matcher to be "greedy", matching the longest possible string. Is there a way to make it match the shortest possible, so that echo aaabbbccc | sed 's/^.*b//' (altered but similar) grabs aaab not aaabbb? Likewise here: &quo

Re: problem report: gawk 3.1.1

\r" | gawk '{print $0, NF}' 4b c $ is correct under UNIX/Linux. In this case the "\r" causes the OFS space and the digit 4 to overwrite the "a " of "a b c ". By using the sed command that you mention you are using it to remove the "\r"
