All the Unix filters i know rarely fails, they just process `stdin` until they encounter the EOF, so i don't see the need to be that conservative.
I think the most user-friendly behavior would be discarding stderr completely and do the replacement in any case. If the user is unhappy with the replacement he/she can still undo it with a single command. I've also tried `sh -c '/usr/bin/bc 2>/dev/null'` as suggested, but it does not seem to work. --- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
