Hello!

I am pleased to announce a new version of my CLI text processing with GNU sed ebook. This book heavily leans on examples to present features one by one. In addition to sed commands and options, regular expressions are also discussed in detail.

Feedback

I would highly appreciate it if you’d let me know how you felt about this book. It could be anything from a simple thank you, pointing out a typo, mistakes in code snippets, which aspects of the book worked for you (or didn’t!) and so on. Reader feedback is essential and especially so for self-published authors.

Happy learning :)

    Good professional work!
    I’ve been doing a lot with sed recently and I found some helpful/handy examples in your doc.

    I’d forgotten about the use of braces for commanp grouping and put it to use after reading your doc.

    Thank you for your work.

    Thank you so much for this! I will check it out as soon as I have more time. Up until now I have relied on ChatGPT for my sed needs but I would prefer to learn it myself. Sed always felt pretty complicated to me.
