Summary |
0001281: ex substitute command missing statement about error |
|
Description |
In the description of the ed substitute command there is this statement:It is an error if the substitution fails on every addressed line. An equivalent statement is missing from the description of the ex substitute command. (All of the implementations I tried treated it as an error, although macOS did not write an error message, it just exited with a non-zero status.)
The ed text should also be changed so that it uses "shall", and it is in an odd place in the paragraph.

|
Desired Action |
On page 2686 line 87606 section ed, delete:It is an error if the substitution fails on every addressed line.
On page 2686 line 87609 section ed, change:The current line shall ... to:It shall be an error if the substitution fails on every addressed line. The current line shall ...
On page 2726 line 89178 section ex, change:... and other special characters. to:... and other special characters. It shall be an error if the substitution fails on every addressed line.
