I have just written five paragraphs of absolute jibberish and wish that I could get sed to work the way that I want. Oh how this question has plagued me!
And have sed output: I have just written five paragraphs of absolute jibberish and ... you get the point.
I can't figure out what the newline character is... I've tried \n \r &\, etc. with no avail. I run the following:
sed 's/[ ]/\n/g' my_test_text_document.txt
and the output never has a newline added regardless of what I have substituted \n with. I have also used " instead of ' and that hasn't helped...
Sorry for the question, but I'd really appreciate the help!
