    So sweet. As teenagers in the 1970s, we used to say "Gulp" (or some such word), as the figures in the comic strips did.

    I see no challenge here, just another occasion for you to practice your adoration ... . :-)

  6. Well. Clearly I don't work on #BSD systems all that often.

    I just wasted nearly 3 hours debugging what should be an incredibly simple shell script.

    Today I learned that the BSD version of #sed requires you to specify an empty string when interactively editing a file if you don't want to create a backup of the file.

    So while this works everywhere else:
    sed -i [search pattern]

    The BSD version requires:
    sed -i "" [search pattern]
