it looks like it's *trying* to remove tabs and spaces, with a single space.
the items in square brackets are the list of matches it'll look for, the "*" after the square bracket says "0 or more of these". the "$" is end of line.
Rest is pretty self explanatory (I hope)
Honestly, though, I've never had much luck using sed for replacing control characters, I've had much better luck using the "tr" command.
ie:
(since I can't display a tab properly, I'll do a 2 step, convert to a tab, then from .. obviously you'd just use one or the other in practice )
Say that I want to match any of the following:
abc
def
ghi
The letters will either be "abc", "def", or "ghi", only those three patterns. The numbers will vary, but there will only be numbers between the brackets.

I have the following line of code that works wonders. I just don't completely understand it as I am just starting to learn regex. Can you help me understand exactly what is happening here?

So, in the above code , sed replaces at the start. does that mean sed using the pattern e* settles to zero occurence ? Why sed was not able to replace Teest string.

Hi everyone,
This regex looks simple and yet it doesn't make sense how it's manipulating the output.
