You're welcome.  However, I should have taken my own advice, as Udi pointed
out, and temporarily unset SHELLMETAS so that the left bracket in the sed
command won't trigger an unnecessary shell:

 savemetas=$SHELLMETAS # unless you already have done this higher up
 SHELLMETAS

 :0Bbfw
 * ()$$$^^
 | sed -e:a -e '/[^\n]/b' -e '$ P' -eN -eba

 SHELLMETAS=$savemetas

What's the issue with SHELLMETAS?
What happens if they have the original value?
