[comp.sys.ibm.pc] SED needed

silvert@cs.dal.ca (Bill Silvert) (04/14/89)

I need a PD version of sed(1) for MS-DOS.  This is for free distribution
with a software package that is distributed worldwide, and many copies
go to 3rd-world countries that cannot afford commercial packages like MKS.

I found one of uncertain origin, but it occasionally adds stray
characters at the end of lines.  The sed that comes with MKS is fine,
but I can't distribute it.

The only feature I need is the -f option, since I use it to change code
for different compilers.

I heard that a version was distributed recently on comp.os.minix, but I
missed it.  I have access to Turbo C and MS C if the source needs to be
recompiled.
