's!/!\\\/!g'`

First a few pointers:

the s means to substitute the first delimted string with the second one,
the first one is between the first set of / and / and the second one is
what follows the second /.
^ beginning of line
$ end of line
[abc]
a or b or c as a character
"* any number of quotation marks, including 0
(anything) takes anything and puts it in buffer 1

This this takes the line and checks for the word "boundary" with any
letters capital

it looks for:

boundry=
followed by zero or more quotes
followed by zero or more ^ or " or ;
 and this batch is put into a buffer

Then this must be followed by
0 or more "
0 or more ;
0 or more .

then the end of the string.

Finally this complete string is replaced with what is in the buffer
followed by ' -e 's!\

however the end does not look right to me.  This shows a !\\\/!, and I have
no idea what that is. Also I do not know what the ! stands for, never seen
it before, must have to do with sed.

The g at the end means it does it over and over, so it can handle multiple
lines.

Hope this helps.

Hi gang,

I'm pretty sure we've got a couple of decent UNIX jocks on the list. If
so, you folks might be able to help me get this attachment filter
debugged a bit faster.

Please see the following message I sent to the OT list, and get back to
