| How is GNU / BSD sed and awk not awesome? |
| |
| ▲ | MrDrMcCoy 3 hours ago | parent [-] | | Limited regex capabilities. A fast tool that does what sed and awk do with PCRE2 would be amazing. | | |
| ▲ | johnisgood 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | Well, I would like to tackle that but unfortunately I do not have enough time to do things for free. :( Is there any demand for it anyway? | | |
| ▲ | MrDrMcCoy 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | I think there would be, but I can only raise my own hand :-) A tool called sd exists that's close enough for sed, but I haven't seen anything similar for awk. | | |
| ▲ | johnisgood 16 minutes ago | parent [-] | | I took a minute to think about it. It would be much more work to add it to awk. :( And replacing every regex evaluation could slow scripts significantly, although this could be a good challenge! :D Are you using "sd" or is there anything wrong with it as a replacement of sed? |
