The MPW Shell editor will do all of these except treating ^J as
an end-of-line character.  Your could build a couple little filters
to translate between formats, but it won't do it automatically.
Also, the regular expression syntax is different from UNIX.  It's
basically equivalent in power to, say, the GNU Emacs regular expression
syntax, but all the special characters are different.  This can take
a little while to get used to...
