Linux Crash Course - The sed Command

[@fleborne]

I believe the 's' before the search pattern actually stands for "substitute", not "string".

[@andromida81]

Yes you are correct

[@PS_Tube]

sed is called stream editor, which is what Jay said.

[@alexo4600]

it's important to note that '-i' is a GNU only option - so it won't work on BSD or MacOS etc.

[@martinschulz1778]

Just run into this, had to switch to gnu sed on my mac

[@boy_with_thorn]

oh that explains it all thnks

[@simfoo]

Your channel is one of those rare gems on KZbin

[@crazyivan315]

Finally, a way to easily remove pineapple from pizza topping lists.

[@manny8717]

Couldn’t agree more. Pineapple as a topping? HECK NO!!

[@yewenyi]

Pineapple are good, so is feta. It should change it to both.

[@k.chriscaldwell4141]

Amen!

[@mason8714]

love seeing new videos like this for new people to linux. Jay's content is fantastic

[@MurangShaBu_MahalNaBiGas]

Thank you Jay Linux is really vast, I just had my certification and I never heard of sed command. I'm glad your putting content for us.

[@TradersTradingEdge]

I love these short session. Very codensed helpful stuff. Thanks Jay!

[@MakeItWork256]

Great tutorial. Unlike many other KZbinr's you don't overcomplicate things. Linux at it's core is made out of a ton of simple idea's that become complicated when they all work together.

[@Ollital]

I tried to understand sed for years. I guess now I've got it. Thank you

[@BilalKhan-rm8qk]

This is my first video, that i watched on your channel. You have explained it very nice and clear.

[@shabadabadoo4326]

Doing linux webserver support for well over a decade, sed became a go-to tool for flipping switches in config files. That said, I know its a lot more powerful than what I ever did with it.

[@tony-2-tired]

Not all heroes wear cape. Great videos. Go buy this man's book too

[@villico3]

you explain stuff very well and simple that makes it easy to grasp! thank you for sharing!

[@dorotamartyniuq5553]

"maybe I'm just hungry, I have no idea why I decided to use pizza toppings as the basis for today's video, but you know what, I did what I did and here it is" it made my day

[@larrywilliams8010]

sed 's/\/etc//' paths.txt Yeah, the command can get rather ugly when lots of escaped characters are needed, but it works and it's second nature for me since I often search for spaces and other characters that must be escaped anyway. Still, I appreciate that there is such an option in case someone wants to learn/use a different delimiter. Thanks for the video

[@jefferson4245]

This makes that sudoers line make all the sense now. I used to be afraid of sed, but now I can shell script more effectively. Thanks!

[@TR1ckY_TV]

Finally!!! 🔥 🔥 🔥 Thank you Sir for put the effort in making these amazing videos

[@Rebel101]

I've just suggested the topic on your new video and saw this covered already afterwards. Thank you!

[@rcdenis1]

I asked a college professor what sed was and I could not get a straight answer from him. Thanks Jay, now I understand. Thank you for posting.

[@layer4down]

Thanks man that's what I needed to know. Glad the video was short and to the point.

[@guypartush2976]

Hi Jay, LOVE your videos! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. please consider adding a video on the "w" and "who" commands. I realize it looks kind of obvious, but I am a total beginner in linux and your explanations of commands are the best. Looking forward to keep on learning.

[@LearnLinuxTV]

I completely agree that would be a great fit for my series. I will add it to my list.

[@alastairtheduke]

You make understanding the basics so clear!

[@thalcave8220]

Sed is command that I couldn't understand when I was beginner. I learned it but did not understand. After few months of writing sed s/... I noticed that I understand what I was writing.

[@polliluiz]

You are awesome mr. Lacroix. The best Linux guy ever

[@bobwong8268]

👍👍👍👍👍 Thanks! This is a great first-step into the wonderful world of /sed/.

[@dillon1012]

You sed it

[@VijayaBaskarvvk]

[@devilmaycry0204]

Simple and straight forward, thanks man

[@kazishafin1]

Happy to found this channel,

[@mnmleung]

Thank you for very clear presentation and explanation.

[@the-baker]

This tutorial is amazing. Well done.

[@MaximumRD]

He sed, She sed......................I'll see myself out......

[@billquain2369]

I didn't know that you could change the delimiter to a different character. this would have come in handy last year when I took a Unix/Linux course at college

[@chromerims]

Incredible information that sed delimiter can be something other than / I too had no idea. I look fwd to using other delimiters with sed.

[@ccroy2001]

The word sed means thirst in Spanish. So have some Pineapple juice. Thanks I've set a goal to get better at the terminal so this helps.

[@vladimirtorres1181]

Wow new subscriber. Really good explanation! TY

[@busyrand]

Fantastic explaination... Thank you Sir...

[@linuxdoesmatter5542]

You are a genius!!!!! Than you 4 teaching me!!!

[@souleymanebarry9231]

Instead of changing the delimiter, you can use the backslash(\) before to escape the slash (/) just like this : sed 's/\/etc//'

[@ChristianDavis-x5z]

'...something EXTREMELY WRONG with this file.' LOL I'm with you, Jay. Pineapple on pizza--I'm OUT. Thanks for the help on delimiters.

[@john-r-edge]

Not sure ordinary mortals can master both sed and awk.

[@YannMetalhead]

Great explanation!

[@freyclante1766]

I just love that comment about Pineapple as a Pizza topping! Hell No! I couldn't agree more 🙂

[@dalirch8496]

thanks for your effort and explanation

[@itbook182]

Good morning, Jay. Thank you very much for the detailed guides ! I have an old Toshiba Portege 14" Laptop with Kali 10.04 still installed there. Recently, I wanted to use it for a monitoring device and reinstall it but it is giving the "no pae"- error (common for the very old hardware). It doesn't boot from USB, only from CD/DVD. Do you think, I can still use it to install a Linux OS on it (I wouldn't mind being only CLI - I need it just to be able to install software to monitor my network), and which one you would propose if yes ? Thank you in advance. Asen

[@swarooprajpurohit110]

You could use a distro which doesn't require pae or install an older version of kali and then upgrade it

[@oldpain7625]

"What are some cool cli apps?" "sed and awk"

[@pnachtwey]

I use sed to edit edit the output of a pip command that updates all my outdated python packages. The output goes to a xargs command

[@riccoc.6507]

Thank you for showing syntax

[@elnurvalikhanli6783]

Amazing command and tutorial thanks

[@antoineweb1]

how about the /g at the end? chatGPT tells me that if you don't add /g at the end, it will only substitute the word once per line, which may not be enough

[@antoineweb1]

for example: echo "a a" | sed s/a/b/ gives "b a" as output

[@muralikrishna9748]

Wondering what would be the script if I want to replace only the last occurance in the last line of the word Pineapple with Olives in your example file ?

[@shajibdey6451]

et(44)1,tet(37)1,oqxB1,VanX-D4,VanX-D4,tet(O)2,aadA51,VanR-G1, here how can I remove everything that comes only after the bracket () by using sed??

[@chessmaster856]

How do you undo if find and replace was wrong? Notepad++ can find and replace across all files from ui. You don't need Unix command for that. Also it can undo it. Can you undo from unix????

[@danperrault]

That was very helpful. thanks

[@Nonsense116]

[@vladimirkulakov8667]

oh man... we can use any delimeter!! not only / !!! Thank you! )

[@venkateshiyer5073]

thank you sir, very helpful

[@adammureiko7508]

And what, may I ask, is wrong with Pineapple?

[@strifef7]

rude Jay! Pineapple is the GOAT on pizza!!

[@nobilkwt7222]

what about a video about chroot

[@ismaeelhaider3075]

Awesome 🥰

[@tolstoievski4926]

what is the difference between -i and -i.bak ?

[@debeeriz]

i was playing around with it to change one letter in a word to another letter and it worked but only in the first word in each line with the letter. Other occasions of the letter remain unchanged

[@debeeriz]

found out how add a g for global quidsup explains it in more detail

[@BlindRambler]

Oh no, no, no. I must change every topping to pineapple. This is not allowed to stand. Thanks for showing me how to use sed to do that. You are very kind, but very wrong.

[@tonyfreehauf4463]

Great Job .... but more more on sed and awk .. thanks - oldtony

[@raalmeida2004ra]

Hawaiian pizza pizza variety, usually topped with pineapple pieces and ham.

[@محمّد.09]

that s is for substitute right.

[@Ranblv]

I think the s stands for substitute not string

[@guilherme5094]

Thanks Jay.

[@navasr7969]

I have data like "Chair"||"Table"|||"Sofa".. How to add double quotes between each pipeline like "Chair"|""|"Table"|""|""|"Sofa" .. Please let me knw the command

[@RKulov]

Sed the pipe with "|"

[@janekmachnicki2593]

thanks mate for suspenseful tutorial

[@sivaprasadk4756]

Nice...very useful

[@stevenoderayi5776]

‘sed’ is short for ‘stream editor’, for those who’re wondering what the command means.

[@markchristophergemzon1052]

it was said in the video. thanks anyway.

[@spacelem]

Sitting here watching the video while eating a ham and pineapple pizza...

[@derekfrost8991]

The option i followed by a suffix creates a backup = -i.bak this is important as -i can be dangerous.. :)

[@vikasmahour6059]
