| Jun 5, 2020 at 15:49 | comment | added | user224016 | Thank you G-Man for also pointing that out, I really messed up quite a lot there so I'll edit what I can. Re adjacent characters to CAT, my simplified question is ambiguous. I'm not sure which solutions here have assumed spaces or have not. I'll edit the question to say this. In the actual use case (complex bash function about tags in filenames) CAT is illegal if bordered by any alphanumeric characters and will have been filtered out earlier on. | |

| Jun 5, 2020 at 0:42 | comment | added | G-Man Says 'Reinstate Monica' | (1) Please specify what should be done with CAT, (i.e., CAT followed by punctuation), CATCH, BOBCAT and LOCATE. (2) steeldriver's answer IS a single sed command — see the comments. Even Dale Hagglund agrees. | |
| Jun 4, 2020 at 16:18 | comment | added | user224016 | Everything here is great. I've gone with the one that entirely uses a single sed pipeline (see its comment to know why.) If any readers want that too, scroll down cos it's not very upvoted atm. | |
