On my GNU/Linux box, this... echo "1111'222?'22'33?'333'44444'555" | sed "s/\([^?]\)'/\1'\n/g" produces the effect you are seeking, except that I simply get a literal letter "n" instead of a newline -- this is because I still have GNU sed v3.02, which doesn't interpret C style character escapes. Your expression looks correct, but you may have to adjust the quoting and number of escapes (backslashes) -- it will undoubtedly be different on Win32, from what I would use on GNU/Linux. If you use it in a sed script, it should be correct as it stands. HTH.
