In particular, his examples automatically back up the original file to <filename>.orig, edit the file in place instead of printing to stdout, and don't need the print statement because -p takes care of it. They also ignore case (the i at the end of the substitution). His last example will deal with img tags that span multiple lines, and the [^>] would keep it from screwing up if there was some other tag with an alt attribute. The idea is the same though.
