Hi, I'm having a hard time to figure out how to represent the tab character in my regular expression pattern using sed:
this works fine: cat foo.txt | sed 's/foo/bar/' this doesn't interpret the tab: cat foo.txt | sed 's/\tfoo/\tbar/' I've been reading the FAQ and sed manual, I find nothing. I tried with the "-r" option for sed described as "Use extended regular expression syntax". This works just fine under the "normal" sed. Any ideas ? Thanks.
