There were several revisions of sed 2.05. I have 2.05-6
There is only one GNU sed 2.05. You have the Redhat RPM sed-2.05-6,
which besides containing GNU sed 2.05, includes a manpage that is
incorrect. The documentation is in error, not the program.
b) GNU sed takes the options printed with 'sed -h', no more and no less.
There is no -g.
There is no -g, except in the man page. Which is why I raised the point.
I would suggest that you a) report this as a bug to RedHat; and b) edit
or remove the manpage.
