Where possible, I like to
cp file-to-change saved-file-to-change
sed <saved-file-to-change >file-to-change \
# whatever edit commands
Repeat seds until done.
This approach preserves relevant permissions on the original (mv does not).
you are aware that sed (and perl) has a -i command line option to create
a backup?
from the 3270 console I usually use perl.
