- This is version 3.02 of the GNU implementation of the POSIX
- stream editor `sed'. (3.01 had a small but important bug
- in character-class parsing. 3.00 was a short-lived rx-based
- release that was yanked due to various problems. 2.05 is the
- most visible predecessor to 3.01.) It fixes several bugs, has
- minor performance improvements, features a major re-organization
- of the code, and has many portability enhancements.
