Yes, but vicut is also faster on benchmarks. And you won't need to write out a whole regex.

Also, I'd love to see what this "sentence finding" regex of yours would look like. I'm sure it's way better than just typing "vis"

Than awk? I very, very doubt your 0.001-3s findings.

Of course. Because you can use it everywhere, that's the whole point of learning regex, awk, or any other POSIX tool.
