= How about writing inplace(1) instead?

``Instead'' is not going to work :-) Even if we drop everything, the
new utility will not make it into the 4.6 or the previous releases,
for which ports still have to work.

= such as sed(1), awk(1), grep(1), sort(1), uniq(1), and so on with it.
= The name and the sinopsis would be a matter of controversy, though.

Indeed... Some sort of integration with xargs(1) will also be needed :)

=
= NAME
=      inplace - processes a file through a filter command inplace
