because that was the fad when it was designed, to mix system-dependent, OS-dependent, and language-dependent things together into one glorious operator-overloadable mess. It cannot be a library function because such things don't have access to constructors and destructors, it has to be a language feature.

1. echo "abc 123 abc" | sed 's/*/X/'
yields -
X 123 abc
Does this mean the "*" operator matches ONLY the first and
the entire token - "abc" and replaces with "X" ?
2. echo "123 abc" | sed 's/*/X/'
yields -
X123 abc
What does this indicate about the "*" operator ?? (7 Replies)

perror(3C) perror(3C)
NAME
perror(), strerror(), strerror_r() - write system error messages
SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
writes a language-dependent message to the standard error output, describing the last error encountered during a call to a system or
library function. The argument string s is printed first, followed by a colon, a blank, the message, and a newline character. To be most
useful, the argument string should include the name of the program that incurred the error. The error number is taken from the symbol
which is set when errors occur but not cleared when non-erroneous calls are made. The contents of the message is identical to those
returned by the function with as the argument. If given a NULL string, the function prints only the message and a newline character.
To simplify variant formatting of messages, the function and the array of message strings are provided. The function maps the error number
in errnum to a language-dependent error message string and returns a pointer to the string. The message string is returned without a new-
line character. can be used as an index into to get an untranslated message string without the newline character. is the largest message
number provided for in the table; it should be checked because new error codes might be added to the system before they are added to the
table. must be used to retrieve messages when translations are desired.
The function maps the error number in errnum to a locale-dependent error message string and returns the string in the buffer pointed to by
buffer, which has length buflen.
EXTERNAL INFLUENCES
Environment Variables
The language of the message returned by and printed by is specified by the environment variable. If the language-dependent message is not
available, or if is not set or is set to the empty string, the default version of the message associated with the "C" language (see
lang(5)) is used.
International Code Set Support
Single and multi-byte character code sets are supported.
RETURN VALUE
returns no value.
If the errnum message number is valid, returns a pointer to a language-dependent message string. The array pointed to should not be modi-
fied by the program, and might be overwritten by a subsequent call to the function. If a valid errnum message number does not have a cor-
responding language-dependent message, uses errnum as an index into to get the message string. If the errnum message number is invalid,
returns a pointer to a NULL string.
Upon successful completion, returns 0. Otherwise, an error number is returned to indicate the error.
ERRORS
If the function fails, it will return one of the following errors:
The value of errnum is not a valid error number.
Insufficient storage was supplied via
buffer and buflen to contain the generated message string.
WARNINGS
The return value for points to data whose content is overwritten by subsequent calls to from the same thread.
