Edit Question
Title
Body
I want to sanitise some input and replace several characters with acceptable input, e.g. a Danish ' å ' with ' aa '. This is easily done using several statements, e.g. /æ/ae/ , /å/aa/ , /ø/oe/ , but due to tool limitations, I want to be able to do this in a single regular expression. I can catch all of the relevant cases ( /[(æ)(ø)(å)(Æ)(Ø)(Å)]/ ) but I replacement does not work as I want it to (but probably completely as intended): $ temp="RødgrØd med flæsk" $ echo $temp RødgrØd med flæsk $ echo $temp | sed 's/[(æ)(ø)(å)(Æ)(Ø)(Å)]/(ae)(oe)(aa)(Ae)(Oe)(Aa)/g' R(ae)(oe)(aa)(Ae)(Oe)(Aa)dgr(ae)(oe)(aa)(Ae)(Oe)(Aa)d med fl(ae)(oe)(aa)(Ae)(Oe)(Aa)sk (first echo line is to show that it isn't an encoding issue) Just as an aside, the tool issue is that I should like to also use the same regex in a Sublime Text 2 snippet . Anyone able to discern what is wrong with my regex statement? Thanks in advance.
