I apologize.
would make for a modern-day version of ed(1) on Itaniums?
Meant: can I feed commands to sam on stdin (in this post-PDP11 age)?
I suppose in your second message you might mean 'X' as
in the X Window System, but I don't see why that would
fix anything. If sam -d doesn't work, running samterm (the
X interface) won't make it start working.
'X' as "in iterate over a list of file names, as in 'I need to batch
process a large amount of HTML puke split across several files."
Completely lost...
Sorry ;-)
Someone generated for me a whole lot of <foo>.html that contain
benchmark results. I don't want to cut-n-paste each of the data
points from the HTML pages. The only sane alternative needs REs that
cross \n. I.e. sam. Preferably in batch mode, as I have more than a
few of these files to deal with. Now that I have fixed my RE and 'x'
stupidity, I need to solve interactive mode.
