Hans-G?nter@24907 1 Mini-sed is a smaller, cheaper, faster SED implementation.
Hans-G?nter@24907 2 Minix uses it. GNU used to use it, until they built their own sed
Hans-G?nter@24907 3 around an extended (some would say over-extended) regexp package.
Hans-G?nter@24907 4
Hans-G?nter@24907 5 For embedded use we searched for a tiny sed implementation especially
Hans-G?nter@24907 6 for use with the dietlibc and found Eric S. Raymond's sed implementation
Hans-G?nter@24907 7 quite handy.
Hans-G?nter@24907 8 Though it suffered several bugs and was not under active maintenance
Hans-G?nter@24907 9 anymore. After sending a bunch of fixes we agreed to continue maintaining
Hans-G?nter@24907 10 this lovely, historic sed implementation.
Hans-G?nter@24907 11
Hans-G?nter@24907 12 Along a lot of fixes and cleanups, further speedups, and some missing
Hans-G?nter@24907 13 features and POSIX conformance, we also added a test-suite to the package,
Hans-G?nter@24907 14 so regressions are quickly and easily uncovered.
