Re: stripping 'footer ads' from mailing lists2000-04-09 15:03:34When I wrote,
| >> :0bfi
| >> * pattern
| >> | sed -n '/pattern/q' -ep
and Darren said it didn't work, Philip explained,
| You need two -e flags, one for two line of the sed program:
|
| :0 bfi
| * pattern
| | sed -n -e '/pattern/q' -e p
Thanks for the correction, Philip. I had meant to type
| sed -ne '/pattern/q' -ep
but my fingers skipped one `e' and my eyes didn't notice.
