Hi,
The problem popped up in the frame of my attempts to switch to
utf8. I opened a uxterm window with the command:
LC_TYPE=he_IL.UTF8 uxterm -sb -sl 500  -xrm 'xterm*pointerShape:
hand2' -geometry 100x40 -bg grey90 -fg black -fn
'-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-200-75-75-c-100-iso10646-1'&

and tried to execute a script involving sed.
In its simplest form, it looks like:
cat v | start-end2
where v is:
        21:45 Les elephants d'Hannibal          22:35 360? Le reportage GEO
        22:35 360? Le reportage GEO             22:36 Les metallos de Chicago
        22:36 Les metallos de Chicago           21:45 Les elephants d'Hannibal
and start-end2 is
#!/bin/sh
sed "s/\([0-9][0-9]:[0-9][0-9]\)\(.*            
\)\([0-9][0-9]:[0-9][0-9]\).*/\1-\3 $1 \2/" 

The big space in the script (2 tabs) corresponds to the two tabs between
the two columns of v

In the uxterm window, the output was:
        21:45-22:35   Les elephants d'Hannibal          ? Le reportage GEO
        22:35 360? Le reportage GEO             22:36 Les metallos de Chicago
        22:36-21:45   Les metallos de Chicago           
Instead of the normal output (in the xterm window):
        21:45-22:35   Les elephants d'Hannibal          
        22:35-22:36   360? Le reportage GEO             
        22:36-21:45   Les metallos de Chicago
sed version: GNU sed version 4.1.5

Should I update/replace my sed or use some command-line option to 
make it behave similarly in the two environements ?
Thanks, Avraham
