Really? I'm surprised. I posted a port of gsed2.05 that runs under Adrian Ives' shell on the QL and from the Basic command line. AFAICR it accepts wildcard characters from either, using the wildcard expansion code that Dave Walker's C68 provides where necessary. I ported this version because that supplied with C68 did not do all that I wanted. I also ported Brian Kernighan's awk because there was no port available for the QL.
