https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=253893 crb <crb@ChrisBowman.com> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |crb@ChrisBowman.com --- Comment #17 from crb <crb@ChrisBowman.com> --- Reading this thread it seems that \s (and I note also \S) isn't supported by our sed whereas they are supported as whitespace and not whitespace in GNU sed. While one could work around this, as has been suggested preciously, would it be a good idea to support this? Are there other escape sequences that GNU sed supports that we don't? If patches that support these GNUisms were submitted and were not otherwise objectionable would they be likely to be committed? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
