440 3.3 Overview of Regular Expression Syntax
443 To know how to use `sed', people should understand regular expressions
444 ("regexp" for short). A regular expression is a pattern that is
453 power of regular expressions comes from the ability to include
457 brief description of regular expression syntax as used in `sed'.
464 preceding regular expression, which must be an ordinary character,
467 regular expression can also be followed by `*'; for example, `a**'
469 itself when it appears at the start of a regular expression or
518 regular expression or subexpression (that is, after `\(' or `\|').
