Package: sed
Version: 4.1.4-1
Severity: normal
Hello !
I did try some backreferences in a sed s/.../.../ program, and it gives me
this funny
result:
gaia ~ $ sed "s/([0-9])\./\3,/"
sed: -e expression #1, char 16: invalid reference \4 on `s' command's RHS
gaia ~ $ sed "s/([0-9])\./\1,/"
sed: -e expression #1, char 16: invalid reference \2 on `s' command's RHS
It does really look like sed does add 1 to all the \digit stuff... I don't
know if it
comes from a realy blunder of me or if this is a real bug. In any case, this
behavior is
quite unexpected.
Thanks !
Vincent Fourmond
