And on another vein than dmacks's, you shouldn't ever use this in an info file: fink's sed or ssed will interpret it the way you intend, but /usr/bin/sed will interpret "-e" as the backup suffix to be used. If you need "-i" in such cases, you should use "-i.bak" or the like... (sorry..., but I'm not to blame for this /usr/bin/sed ..)
