Operating Systems Solaris How to link sed from /usr/bin/sed to /usr/local/bin/sed? Post 302885833 by Don Cragun on Tuesday 28th of January 2014 02:09:46 PM

If you have a program named gunzip installed, do you also have gsed installed?

When you download software and it includes a file named README, I think it should be obvious that you should start by reading that file. Then, at a minimum, read the files INSTALL, Makefile.am and Makefile.in, ABOUT-NLS, BUGS, and NEWS. Assuming that sed and testsuite are directories, I would also look at the files in them. If you're curious (or paranoid), look at all of the files you downloaded!

Then, if the instructions on what to do to install GNU sed as /usr/local/bin/sed weren't clear, show us the instructions you didn't understand.
