Oh. Crap, I knew it would be something simple, but honestly, I don't
think that I would have gotten there. Thank you so much. Seriously
saved me more grey hair.

This is so trivial (or should be), but I can't figure it out.
I'm trying to do what in vim is
:s/\([0-9]\)x/\1*x/
That is, "find a number followed by an x and put a "*" in between
the number and the x"
So, if the string is "6443x - 3", I'll get back "6443*x - 3"
I won't write down all the things I've tried, but suffice it to
say, nothing has done it. I just found myself figuring out how to
call sed and realized that this should be a one-liner in python
too. Any ideas? I've read a lot of documentation, but I just
can't figure it out. Thanks.
