's/^.*[Bb][Oo][Uu][Nn][Dd][Aa][Rr][Yy]="*\([^";]*\)"*;*.*$/\1/'\ -e 's!/!\\\/!g'`
First a few pointers: the s means to substitute the first delimted string with the second one, the first one is between the first set of / and / and the second one is what follows the second /. ^ beginning of line $ end of line [abc] a or b or c as a character "* any number of quotation marks, including 0 (anything) takes anything and puts it in buffer 1 This this takes the line and checks for the word "boundary" with any letters capital it looks for: boundry= followed by zero or more quotes followed by zero or more ^ or " or ; and this batch is put into a buffer Then this must be followed by 0 or more " 0 or more ; 0 or more . then the end of the string. Finally this complete string is replaced with what is in the buffer followed by ' -e 's!\ however the end does not look right to me. This shows a !\\\/!, and I have no idea what that is. Also I do not know what the ! stands for, never seen it before, must have to do with sed. The g at the end means it does it over and over, so it can handle multiple lines. Hope this helps.
