  • \$\begingroup\$ Why the grep? (cat&&echo _)|sed 's~.~ |&|\n~g;1s~^~ |\n /_\\\n~;$s~$~/___\\\n VvV~'. Actually I see no reason to use cat and echo either. Would be shorter transformed into pure sed solution. \$\endgroup\$ Commented Aug 26, 2016 at 15:00
  • \$\begingroup\$ With pure sed, you don't get any output if you don't have input \$\endgroup\$ Commented Aug 26, 2016 at 15:17
  • \$\begingroup\$ Doh. You are right. Sorry, I forgot that part of requirement. \$\endgroup\$ Commented Aug 26, 2016 at 15:26
  • \$\begingroup\$ @manatwork I forgot about it in my first try too. \$\endgroup\$ Commented Aug 26, 2016 at 15:27
  • \$\begingroup\$ For future reference, avoid using <pre><code> tags. Use 4 spaces preceding the code in the future, as this auto-escapes Markdown formatting. I have maintained the current formatting due to the strikethrough, but you can just leave that in edit history as well for those curious to look at it. \$\endgroup\$ Commented Aug 26, 2016 at 15:41
