Interesting! I just wonder... How would you do a conditional branching in sed?

There is a conditional branch instruction in sed that is taken if the last substitute command was successful.

The O'Reilly book on sed & awk is available online for free from various sources (I grabbed a rar archive of it from somewhere).
