Work on this feature (pcre support in GNU sed) was never fully completed, and is currently shelved indefinitely. It would be inordinately difficult to make it as good as perl (especially with regard to multi-line processing), and would complicate sed while providing little gain (when perl itself is readily available). I'm thus closing and marking this item as 'wontfix'. However discussion can continue by replying to this thread. regards, - assaf From debbugs-submit-bounces@debbugs.gnu.org Tue Mar 21 23:21:49 2017 Received: (at control) by debbugs.gnu.org; 22 Mar 2017 03:21:49 +0000 Received: from localhost ([127.0.0.1]:38528 helo=debbugs.gnu.org) by debbugs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.84_2) (envelope-from ) id 1cqWqL-000685-2L for submit@debbugs.gnu.org; Tue, 21 Mar 2017 23:21:49 -0400 Received: from mail-qt0-f182.google.com ([209.85.216.182]:36751) by debbugs.gnu.org with esmtp (Exim 4.84_2) (envelope-from ) id 1cqWqI-00067m-BP; Tue, 21 Mar 2017 23:21:46 -0400 Received: by mail-qt0-f182.google.com with SMTP id r45so145337438qte.3; Tue, 21 Mar 2017 20:21:46 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=20161025; h=date:from:to:cc:subject:message-id:references:mime-version :content-disposition:in-reply-to:user-agent; bh=PPqjNgmlLjj/xWOMfkIyoe8ykSmq7O+kXgPC56hPRjk=; b=CsNo0pZN6XAckhSVaMqZmZAmmtXZHAb92s3VLO0hHNKZCts3KR/AMPaTdSQWmOm6oJ zxpVJFzgKIXPddpZqs31lRlfl9shX0bkcoXb0LmH9zgMbodmOh25bAgUTQfz33wtW7b0 7pjxL+nNi0prUHc+r+AbYXhaCVwJRchLx+HLU4H96hHl5glgIKAKuQ3RzTXhJfdN1cG+ gnNI4xZoVpvfakyuU1aLZUx4wrbQMt0p7anltIzEVldR+kqTocfc5gIQbUZ1codLKGTR vPuuzAhdszesclMYNY09bzSf9Mj2yw7SVezvFDs7VhNxyaj/hyEtTZVbNRJ0rbQtmtVh W7kg== X-Google-DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=1e100.net; s=20161025; h=x-gm-message-state:date:from:to:cc:subject:message-id:references :mime-version:content-disposition:in-reply-to:user-agent; bh=PPqjNgmlLjj/xWOMfkIyoe8ykSmq7O+kXgPC56hPRjk=; b=qB+XIBme3n+ioWpcZBpDk7Yy+bxkPmIcbv1xfDXK55cQqlF1TwAfLAPgLBuEvlgYCt dZD4OycjKCp/MpVhlj5jQ+C4FFgnfF4q772aim6NXFI2lqLH+y2dkYNof2gkH6IenrKQ 8EnEMWt3xUo3NTiFUBINLegLlmTHNhHGcVVsbew4ZsLqJ49w9mWMBj5wmQRw1qUSZs6a JK3RhBBE/+6RWhCnbTTB7RhAhDoWBR0/4Lz41h5/bkMq2VV6ManAOIpxhQOKtv//zF3Y jfJGpwT7sEVXHcTN466uonKsggZRh4vVQPCNGq41ZZQUyf0FOJG6Qu2nwGNfJrCCFUfX X2kQ== X-Gm-Message-State: AFeK/H2zEW68Xpl9uzc94fQ6c9mJXeVet4cuSuV3dlaHS7iIoJ/v2VHcCR7YNMGdRDKVaQ== X-Received: by 10.200.34.77 with SMTP id p13mr34948962qtp.22.1490152900843; Tue, 21 Mar 2017 20:21:40 -0700 (PDT) Received: from gmail.com (housegordon.org.
