I suspect your input file is in DOS format. This means that at the end of the line there are two characters: 'carriage return (CR)' and 'linefeed (LF)'. With your sed statement you are only replacing the LF by '***' plus a new LF. so your sentence becomes:
Which get printed as:
This is why
does indeed work because then you delete the CR (the "." takes care of it) , so your sentence becomes:
So I think you should convert the file to unix format first and then the original sed statement should work.
Right on the money. That was exactly the problem. I simply copied the contents of the file, created a new one in emacs and pasted it in there, and then renamed it to the original. Then all of a sudden it started to work. Thanks.
There are things you know, and things you know you don't know, and then there's things you don't know you don't know. That was something I didn't know I didn't know. God that was frustrating. To know your code is correct, but then it doesn't work is probably one of the worst part of this profession.

irsend
IRSEND(1) User Commands IRSEND(1)NAME
irsend - basic LIRC program to send infra-red commands
SYNOPSIS
irsend [options] DIRECTIVE REMOTE CODE [CODE...]
DESCRIPTION
Asks the lircd daemon to send one or more CIR (Consumer Infra-Red) commands. This is intended for remote control of electronic devices such
as TV boxes, HiFi sets, etc.
DIRECTIVE can be:
SEND_ONCE - send CODE [CODE ...] once
SEND_START - start repeating CODE
SEND_STOP - stop repeating CODE
LIST - list configured remote items
SET_TRANSMITTERS - set transmitters NUM [NUM ...]
SIMULATE - simulate IR event
REMOTE is the name of a remote, as described in the lircd configuration file.
CODE is the name of a remote control key of REMOTE, as it appears in the lircd configuration file.
NUM is the transmitter number of the hardware device.
For the LIST DIRECTIVE, REMOTE and/or CODE can be empty:
LIST "" "" - list all configured remote names
LIST REMOTE "" - list all codes of REMOTE
LIST REMOTE CODE - list only CODE of REMOTE
The SIMULATE command only works if it has been explicitly enabled in lircd.
-h --help
display usage summary
-v --version
display version
-d --device
use given lircd socket [/var/run/lirc/lircd]
-a --address=host[:port]
connect to lircd at this address
-# --count=n
send command n times
EXAMPLES
irsend LIST DenonTuner ""
irsend SEND_ONCE DenonTuner PROG-SCAN
irsend SEND_ONCE OnkyoAmpli VOL-UP VOL-UP VOL-UP VOL-UP
irsend SEND_START OnkyoAmpli VOL-DOWN ; sleep 3
irsend SEND_STOP OnkyoAmpli VOL-DOWN
irsend SET_TRANSMITTERS 1
irsend SET_TRANSMITTERS 1 3 4
irsend SIMULATE "0000000000000476 00 OK TECHNISAT_ST3004S"
FILES
/etc/lirc/lircd.conf
Default lircd configuration file. It should contain all the remotes, their infra-red codes and the corresponding timing and wave-
form details.
DIAGNOSTICS
If lircd is not running (or /var/run/lirc/lircd lacks write permissions) irsend aborts with the following diagnostics:
"irsend: could not connect to socket"
"irsend: Connection refused" (or "Permission denied").
