There is a bug in sed: when processing files which do not end with a newline
character, the last line is discarded. For example, execute the following:
echo aaaaa > foo1 ; echo bbbbb > foo2 ; echo -n ccccc > foo3
echo ddddd > foo4 ; echo eeeee > foo5 ; echo -n fffff >> foo5
cat foo? ; sed '' foo?
cat foo5 ; sed '' foo5
In both cases, the 'sed' should be identical with the 'cat', but is not.
This shell script creates two 'diff' files, 'd0' and 'd1', which can be
applied to the System V, Release 2 versions of 'sed0.c' and 'sed1.c' to fix
this shortcoming. In addition, sed will recognize '-' on the command
line as representing standard input.
These changes have been tested at Pixel and appear to work okay.
Please let me know (by e-mail) if you encounter any problems, or if any
other features should be added.
