--- Comment #17 from crb <crb@ChrisBowman.com> ---
Reading this thread it seems that \s (and I note also \S) isn't supported by
our sed whereas they are supported as whitespace and not whitespace in GNU sed.
While one could work around this, as has been suggested preciously, would it
be a good idea to support this? Are there other escape sequences that GNU sed
supports that we don't? If patches that support these GNUisms were submitted
and were not otherwise objectionable would they be likely to be committed?
