Linux 文本处理工具——sed

概念

文本处理工具，可以看成一种特殊的程序设计语言，用来高效地批量处理文本数据。

特点

1. 非交互式编辑（与vi 编辑器相比）
2. 面向数据流
3. 可以使用正则表达式
4. 有一个缓冲区（模式空间）的概念，是理解 sed 的关键

sed的两种语法格式

sed [OPTIONS]... 'COMMAND' [FILE]...
sed [OPTIONS] -f SCRIPTFILE [FILE]...

sed指令的语法形式 (指令的地址和模式空间的行匹配)

[address[, address]][!]command

[address1, address2]command

[line-address]command

address {
command1
command2
command3
}

sed常用选项（OPTIONS）

-e    --expression

-f    --file

-i    --in-place

-n

sed常用命令（COMMAND）

sed的编辑命令有24个，关于每个编辑命令的用途的详细信息，参考sed的man参考手册。

常用的有下面几个，

追加(a)
更改(c)
删除(d)
插入(i)
替换(s)

If no -e, --expression, -f, or --file option is given, then the first
non-option argument is taken as the sed script to interpret.  All
remaining arguments are names of input files; if no input files are
specified, then the standard input is read.

SED(1)                    BSD General Commands Manual                   SED(1)

NAME
     sed -- stream editor

SYNOPSIS
     sed [-Ealn] command [file ...]
     sed [-Ealn] [-e command] [-f command_file] [-i extension] [file ...]

DESCRIPTION
     The sed utility reads the specified files, or the standard input if no files are specified, modifying the input as speci-
     fied by a list of commands.  The input is then written to the standard output.

     A single command may be specified as the first argument to sed.  Multiple commands may be specified by using the -e or -f
     options.  All commands are applied to the input in the order they are specified regardless of their origin.

     The following options are available:

     -E      Interpret regular expressions as extended (modern) regular expressions rather than basic regular expressions
             (BRE's).  The re_format(7) manual page fully describes both formats.

     -a      The files listed as parameters for the ``w'' functions are created (or truncated) before any processing begins, by
             default.  The -a option causes sed to delay opening each file until a command containing the related ``w'' function
             is applied to a line of input.

     -e command
             Append the editing commands specified by the command argument to the list of commands.

     -f command_file
             Append the editing commands found in the file command_file to the list of commands.  The editing commands should
             each be listed on a separate line.

     -i extension
             Edit files in-place, saving backups with the specified extension.  If a zero-length extension is given, no backup
             will be saved.  It is not recommended to give a zero-length extension when in-place editing files, as you risk cor-
             ruption or partial content in situations where disk space is exhausted, etc.

     -l      Make output line buffered.

     -n      By default, each line of input is echoed to the standard output after all of the commands have been applied to it.
             The -n option suppresses this behavior.

     The form of a sed command is as follows:

           [address[,address]]function[arguments]

     Whitespace may be inserted before the first address and the function portions of the command.

     Normally, sed cyclically copies a line of input, not including its terminating newline character, into a pattern space,
     (unless there is something left after a ``D'' function), applies all of the commands with addresses that select that pat-
     tern space, copies the pattern space to the standard output, appending a newline, and deletes the pattern space.

     Some of the functions use a hold space to save all or part of the pattern space for subsequent retrieval.

Sed Addresses
     An address is not required, but if specified must be a number (that counts input lines cumulatively across input files), a
     dollar (``$'') character that addresses the last line of input, or a context address (which consists of a regular expres-
     sion preceded and followed by a delimiter).

     A command line with no addresses selects every pattern space.

     A command line with one address selects all of the pattern spaces that match the address.

     A command line with two addresses selects an inclusive range.  This range starts with the first pattern space that matches
     the first address.  The end of the range is the next following pattern space that matches the second address.  If the sec-
     ond address is a number less than or equal to the line number first selected, only that line is selected.  In the case when
     the second address is a context address, sed does not re-match the second address against the pattern space that matched
     the first address.  Starting at the first line following the selected range, sed starts looking again for the first
     address.

     Editing commands can be applied to non-selected pattern spaces by use of the exclamation character (``!'') function.

Sed Regular Expressions
     The regular expressions used in sed, by default, are basic regular expressions (BREs, see re_format(7) for more informa-
     tion), but extended (modern) regular expressions can be used instead if the -E flag is given.  In addition, sed has the
     following two additions to regular expressions:

     1.   In a context address, any character other than a backslash (``\'') or newline character may be used to delimit the
          regular expression.  Also, putting a backslash character before the delimiting character causes the character to be
          treated literally.  For example, in the context address \xabc\xdefx, the RE delimiter is an ``x'' and the second ``x''
          stands for itself, so that the regular expression is ``abcxdef''.

     2.   The escape sequence \n matches a newline character embedded in the pattern space.  You cannot, however, use a literal
          newline character in an address or in the substitute command.

     One special feature of sed regular expressions is that they can default to the last regular expression used.  If a regular
     expression is empty, i.e., just the delimiter characters are specified, the last regular expression encountered is used
     instead.  The last regular expression is defined as the last regular expression used as part of an address or substitute
     command, and at run-time, not compile-time.  For example, the command ``/abc/s//XXX/'' will substitute ``XXX'' for the pat-
     tern ``abc''.

Sed Functions
     In the following list of commands, the maximum number of permissible addresses for each command is indicated by [0addr],
     [1addr], or [2addr], representing zero, one, or two addresses.

     The argument text consists of one or more lines.  To embed a newline in the text, precede it with a backslash.  Other back-
     slashes in text are deleted and the following character taken literally.

     The ``r'' and ``w'' functions take an optional file parameter, which should be separated from the function letter by white
     space.  Each file given as an argument to sed is created (or its contents truncated) before any input processing begins.

     The ``b'', ``r'', ``s'', ``t'', ``w'', ``y'', ``!'', and ``:'' functions all accept additional arguments.  The following
     synopses indicate which arguments have to be separated from the function letters by white space characters.

     Two of the functions take a function-list.  This is a list of sed functions separated by newlines, as follows:

           { function
             function
             ...
             function
           }

     The ``{'' can be preceded by white space and can be followed by white space.  The function can be preceded by white space.
     The terminating ``}'' must be preceded by a newline or optional white space.

     [2addr] function-list
             Execute function-list only when the pattern space is selected.

     [1addr]a\
     text    Write text to standard output immediately before each attempt to read a line of input, whether by executing the
             ``N'' function or by beginning a new cycle.

     [2addr]b[label]
             Branch to the ``:'' function with the specified label.  If the label is not specified, branch to the end of the
             script.

     [2addr]c\
     text    Delete the pattern space.  With 0 or 1 address or at the end of a 2-address range, text is written to the standard
             output.

     [2addr]d
             Delete the pattern space and start the next cycle.

     [2addr]D
             Delete the initial segment of the pattern space through the first newline character and start the next cycle.

     [2addr]g
             Replace the contents of the pattern space with the contents of the hold space.

     [2addr]G
             Append a newline character followed by the contents of the hold space to the pattern space.

     [2addr]h
             Replace the contents of the hold space with the contents of the pattern space.

     [2addr]H
             Append a newline character followed by the contents of the pattern space to the hold space.

     [1addr]i\
     text    Write text to the standard output.

     [2addr]l
             (The letter ell.)  Write the pattern space to the standard output in a visually unambiguous form.  This form is as
             follows:

                   backslash          \\
                   alert              \a
                   form-feed          \f
                   carriage-return    \r
                   tab                \t
                   vertical tab       \v

             Nonprintable characters are written as three-digit octal numbers (with a preceding backslash) for each byte in the
             character (most significant byte first).  Long lines are folded, with the point of folding indicated by displaying
             a backslash followed by a newline.  The end of each line is marked with a ``$''.

     [2addr]n
             Write the pattern space to the standard output if the default output has not been suppressed, and replace the pat-
             tern space with the next line of input.

     [2addr]N
             Append the next line of input to the pattern space, using an embedded newline character to separate the appended
             material from the original contents.  Note that the current line number changes.

     [2addr]p
             Write the pattern space to standard output.

     [2addr]P
             Write the pattern space, up to the first newline character to the standard output.

     [1addr]q
             Branch to the end of the script and quit without starting a new cycle.

     [1addr]r file
             Copy the contents of file to the standard output immediately before the next attempt to read a line of input.  If
             file cannot be read for any reason, it is silently ignored and no error condition is set.

     [2addr]s/regular expression/replacement/flags
             Substitute the replacement string for the first instance of the regular expression in the pattern space.  Any char-
             acter other than backslash or newline can be used instead of a slash to delimit the RE and the replacement.  Within
             the RE and the replacement, the RE delimiter itself can be used as a literal character if it is preceded by a back-
             slash.

             An ampersand (``&'') appearing in the replacement is replaced by the string matching the RE.  The special meaning
             of ``&'' in this context can be suppressed by preceding it by a backslash.  The string ``\#'', where ``#'' is a
             digit, is replaced by the text matched by the corresponding backreference expression (see re_format(7)).

             A line can be split by substituting a newline character into it.  To specify a newline character in the replacement
             string, precede it with a backslash.

             The value of flags in the substitute function is zero or more of the following:

                   N       Make the substitution only for the N'th occurrence of the regular expression in the pattern space.

                   g       Make the substitution for all non-overlapping matches of the regular expression, not just the first
                           one.

                   p       Write the pattern space to standard output if a replacement was made.  If the replacement string is
                           identical to that which it replaces, it is still considered to have been a replacement.

                   w file  Append the pattern space to file if a replacement was made.  If the replacement string is identical
                           to that which it replaces, it is still considered to have been a replacement.

     [2addr]t [label]
             Branch to the ``:'' function bearing the label if any substitutions have been made since the most recent reading of
             an input line or execution of a ``t'' function.  If no label is specified, branch to the end of the script.

     [2addr]w file
             Append the pattern space to the file.

     [2addr]x
             Swap the contents of the pattern and hold spaces.


     [2addr]y/string1/string2/
             Replace all occurrences of characters in string1 in the pattern space with the corresponding characters from
             string2.  Any character other than a backslash or newline can be used instead of a slash to delimit the strings.
             Within string1 and string2, a backslash followed by an ``n'' is replaced by a newline character.  A pair of back-
             slashes is replaced by a literal backslash.  Finally, a backslash followed by any other character (except a new-
             line) is that literal character.

     [2addr]!function
     [2addr]!function-list
             Apply the function or function-list only to the lines that are not selected by the address(es).

     [0addr]:label
             This function does nothing; it bears a label to which the ``b'' and ``t'' commands may branch.

     [1addr]=
             Write the line number to the standard output followed by a newline character.

     [0addr]
             Empty lines are ignored.

     [0addr]#
             The ``#'' and the remainder of the line are ignored (treated as a comment), with the single exception that if the
             first two characters in the file are ``#n'', the default output is suppressed.  This is the same as specifying the
             -n option on the command line.

ENVIRONMENT
     The COLUMNS, LANG, LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE and LC_COLLATE environment variables affect the execution of sed as described in
     environ(7).

EXIT STATUS
     The sed utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

LEGACY DESCRIPTION
     Warnings are not generated for unused labels.  In legacy mode, they are.

     In the -y function, doubled backslashes are not converted to single ones.  In legacy mode, they are.

     For more information about legacy mode, see compat(5).

SEE ALSO
     awk(1), ed(1), grep(1), regex(3), compat(5), re_format(7)

STANDARDS
     The sed utility is expected to be a superset of the IEEE Std 1003.2 (``POSIX.2'') specification.

     The -E, -a and -i options are non-standard FreeBSD extensions and may not be available on other operating systems.

HISTORY
     A sed command, written by L. E. McMahon, appeared in Version 7 AT&T UNIX.

BUGS
     Multibyte characters containing a byte with value 0x5C (ASCII `\') may be incorrectly treated as line continuation charac-
     ters in arguments to the ``a'', ``c'' and ``i'' commands.  Multibyte characters cannot be used as delimiters with the ``s''
     and ``y'' commands.
