sed command scripts

[Richard A Lough]

Hi,

First of all, thanks for the work already done on sed.

Secondly, I'm reporting this as a bug, you probably 
won't think it is.

I found that the equivalent of

$ sed 'w ./my.output.file' ./my.input.file

as a script is 

$ sed -f ./sedfile ./my.input.file

where the content of ./sedfile is :
# this is ./sedfile
w ./my.output.file
# Note that adding 'q' as the last line of the file 
# does not work as you might have intended
# ./sedfile ends here 

I note that $ info sed 
does not include any examples, you might include some 
of this email there. If I can get this wrong, so can 
others. 

And yes, the dc.sed is amazing.

HTH
