linux下sed扩展正则,在sed中使用扩展正则表达式(ERE)选项时,为什...

在扩展正则表达式(ERE)中,即-r下,$表示行的结尾：

$echo '$foo' | sed -r 's/foo$/bar/'

$bar

如果您希望它表示其他含义,则必须对其进行转义：

$echo '$foo' | sed -r 's/[$]foo$/bar/'

bar

man 7 regex解释说,在扩展正则表达式(ERE)中,$与行末匹配：

‘$’ (matching the null string at the end of a line)

相同的手册页继续说明,在没有-r的情况下得到的基本正则表达式(BRE)中,其含义更为复杂：

Obsolete (“basic”) regular expressions differ in several respects.

‘|’, ‘+’, and ‘?’ are ordinary characters and there is no

equivalent for their functionality. The delimiters for bounds are

“{” and “}”, with ‘{‘ and ‘}’ by themselves ordinary characters.

The parentheses for nested subexpressions are “(” and “)”, with ‘(‘

and ‘)’ by themselves ordinary characters. ‘^’ is an ordinary

character except at the beginning of the RE or(!) the beginning of a

parenthesized subexpression, ‘$’ is an ordinary character except at

the end of the RE or(!) the end of a parenthesized subexpression, and

‘*’ is an ordinary character if it appears at the beginning of the

RE or the beginning of a parenthesized subexpression (after a possible

leading ‘^’).
