My comment is: Wow! That seems a great accomplishment. And a huge amount
of work.
-------------------
A few questions after reading the help file.
With more python programming, is it feasible to allow multiple -e / -f
options, as mentioned on the todo list?
Does sed.py allow \< and \> regular expressions? Not on the "Regular
Expressions" list. Also, I assume it does & replacement but did not see
it on the list.
Does sed.py allow -i flag?
Why no Linux GNU sed timing for the timing comparisons?
Any idea why python 3.4 is slower than python 2 in the timings? Is 3.4
slower in general?
From the command line, isn't GNU sed always going to be better, since
GNU sed is faster and does more? Or is sed.py better in some ways from
the command line?
From within python, is there an advantage of using sed.py vs GNU sed? I
looked at the section "Usage as a Python module", which suggests there
is an advantage, but I am not a python programmer. It would perhaps help
to have a few examples of python scripts calling GNU sed (is that
possible?) vs calling sed.py from within the python script, to show any
advantage.
Thanks,
Daniel
PS - functionnality -> functionality

The differences are described in the home page. It can be used as a Python module or as a command line utility with the standard parameters.
