Why should I learn sed? If you write scripts, maintain source code, maintain web sites, or process text data, sed can help make your work more productive and enjoyable. Why should I buy this book? "Definitive Guide to sed" is the best way to learn sed. "Definitive Guide" greatly lessens the confusion many encounter on trying to learn sed. The book serves as a full tutorial and reference, useful for both beginning and experienced sed users. Any prerequisites? If you plan to use sed on Unix, it is recommended to be familiar with basic Unix commands and to have written some simple shell scripts. If you plan to use sed on Windows, it is recommended to be familiar with batch or PowerShell scripting. sed is not a "beginner's tool". Which sed is covered? GNU sed 4.2.1 is covered.
