.. class:: warningmark

Use with caution! Its a plain wrapper around **sed** and the input is not sanitized.


-----

**What it does**

Changes every line of a text file according to a given regular expression.

-----

**Syntax**

Use the **sed**-syntax -> **s/find-pattern/replace-pattern/**

**Example**

- **s/x/-/** Replace all **x** with **-**.

- **s/_.*//** Splits a string after **_** and replaces the rest with nothing.
- **s/[^_]*_*//** Splits a string after **_** and replaces the first part with nothing.

- **s/\\s.*//** Splits a string after whitespaces and replaces the rest with nothing.
- **s/\\S*\\s*//** Splits a string after whitespaces and replaces the first part with nothing.
