#print Note that there is quite a list of special characters recognized by the editor: . [ * ^ $ & / What do you do when you want to specifically use one of these characters as itself, rather than for its funny meaning? You must precede it by a backslash, as in s/\./,/p which will change the line x, y. and z into x, y, and z easily. The same works for all the other special characters. What command would change * into c Type "answer COMMAND" where COMMAND is of the form s/.././p #copyin #user #uncopyin #match s/\*/c/p #match s/\*/c/ You forgot the "p" on the end. #log #next 44.1a 10
