Well it is either * the sed magic is so arcane that you'd need to spend a long time, comparable to 2 hours you already spent, if you ever need to look at it and figure out what it does next time you need to change something in it. or * you are not familiar with the sed magic and you would be able to write the same thing in 2 minutes next time if you need to adjust it when we add -pid back later. Either way, those 2 hours are not wasted. I personally fall into the former category. Any sed script that needs G, h, and x together I need to spend at least 15 minutes just to warm myself up, as I do not work with the language that often. Thanks ;-)
