sed
_UNIX03=YES is set, one or more ’!’ characters are allowed, and it is not allowed to
follow a ’!’ character with s. When the variable _UNIX03 is unset or is not
set to YES, only one ’!’ character is allowed, and it is not allowed to follow a ’!’
character with s.
The following sed subcommand summary shows the subcommands with the
maximum number of legitimate addresses. A subcommand can be given fewer than
the number of addresses specified, but not more.
aa\ Appends subsequent text lines from the script to the standard output. sed
writes the text after completing all other script operations for that line and
before reading the next record. Text lines are ended by the first line that
does not end with a backslash (\). sed does not treat the \ characters on
the end of lines as part of the text.
a,bb [label]
Branches to :label. If you omit label, sed branches to the end of the script.
a,bc\ Changes the addressed lines by deleting the contents of the pattern buffer
(input line) and sending subsequent text (similar to the a command) to the
standard output. When you specify two addresses, sed delays text output
until the final line in the range of addresses; otherwise, the behavior would
surprise many users. The rest of the script is skipped for each addressed
line except the last.
a,bd Deletes the contents of the pattern buffer (input line) and restarts the script
with the next input line.
a,bD Deletes the pattern buffer only up to and including the first newline. Then it
restarts the script from the beginning and applies it to the text left in the
pattern buffer.
a,bg Grabs a copy of the text in the hold buffer and places it in the pattern
buffer, overwriting the original contents.
a,bG Grabs a copy of the text in the hold buffer and appends it to the end of the
pattern buffer after appending a newline.
a,bh Holds a copy of the text in the pattern buffer by placing it in the hold buffer,
overwriting its original contents.
a,bH Holds a copy of the text in the pattern buffer by appending it to the end of
the hold buffer after appending a newline.
ai\ Inserts text. This subcommand is similar to the a subcommand, except that
its text is output immediately.
a,bl Lists the pattern buffer (input line) to the standard output so that
nonprintable characters are visible. The end-of-line is represented by $, and
the characters \\, \a, \b, \f, \r, \t, and \v are printed as escape sequences.
Each byte of a nonprintable doublebyte character appears as an escape
sequence or as a 3-digit octal number. This subcommand is analogous to
the l subcommand in ed.
sed folds long lines to suit the output device, indicating the point of folding
with a backslash (\).
a,bn Prints the pattern space on standard output if the default printing of the
pattern space is not suppressed (because of the -n option). The next line of
input is then read, and the processing of the line continues from the
location of the n command in the script.
