Hi Albert.
> Few people use "sed" on raw binary data.
Curiously enough, I've recently written several bash shell script utilities for a customer that did just that, as it was the easiest way to get the task done.
I've also had the pleasure of writing a diskette formatter entirely as a bash script, and it wasn't hard either...
Best wishes from Riley.
