I'm not surprised on Mac you'd have to use the second version - the -i flag to sed is a GNU-specific flag, so would probably only work on Linux or OpenSolaris - software that uses a GNU User-land. The second invocation is not as clean, since it leaves the bak file hanging around, but it has the advantage of working everywhere. Did you by chance compare the resulting file with one done the old way, to ensure my command does the same thing as the vim :g commands? I'm pretty sure vim's :g does the same thing as the g at the end of the sed expression - in fact, the way I usually do global search/replace in vim is :%s/foo/bar/g. I'm currently working on a new Xastir install on my desktop right now - so I might try out using the newer tiger files on this build.

Actually it is FreeBSD sed :) On Apr 18, 2009, at 1:30 PM, Tom Hayward wrote: Thanks Dale.
