You can use anything other than /
Sed will use whatever character follows the s
My example doesn't fully illustrate my command. Really, what i wanted to
do is to
sedrules="s/^source[[:blank:]]\"/source \"$NEWROOT\//;p"
Basically, change "arch/i386/Kconfig" to "kernel-tree/arch/i386/Kconfig"
I used | to it is a bit more easier to read.
I want to be able to leave NEWROOT as a variable so the script is a bit
more extensible, but bash and sed won't have it
