The first line has to end with a backslash (\).
You have to press the Enter key after the backslash to insert a hard
carriage return
in the replacement string.

2nd type in:     /g'   infile  > outfile

Karl,

You may want to consider using tr instead of sed. tr '~' '\n' will convert
the "~" characters to newlines.

You could do something like this:
  tr '~' '\n' < infile > outfile
or
  cat infile | tr '~' '\n' > outfile
