Can anyone tell me how to get sed to work with an OR pattern match?
If I try the standard pipe character, the command fails. I found on
Google to escape the pipe with a backslash. That command runs, but
the pattern doesn't match.
Here's what I have that works (just one pattern):
sed 's|<Tag />|<Tag>Value</Tag>|' file_path
This command runs but doesn't match either pattern:
sed 's|<Tag />\|<Tag></Tag>|<Tag>Value</Tag>|' file_path
TIA
