The functionality is already there and sure, it could be made more user-friendly. But that requires a lot of invested time and money, which can be pretty lacking in the open source space. If the Linux developers had Microsoft resources then Windows would be long dead.
Maybe try a better distro if you can’t confuigure the one you use? I haven’t had problems on Arch after setting it up properly.
Thank you so much for this! I will check it out as soon as I have more time. Up until now I have relied on ChatGPT for my sed needs but I would prefer to learn it myself. Sed always felt pretty complicated to me.
