Thanks for the blast from the past. SED led me to AWK, which led me to Perl, which lead me to Python. An interesting chain that brought me back to the interpreted languages like BASIC that I programmed in when I was a kid. Even though my formal training in college was Pascal and C.

Ha, I went the Python → AWK → sed route, just for the sake of learning what was behind those chamanics expressions. Glad I could bring back those memories!
