@theohonohan@graphics.social Pattern matching across delimiters is a different and imo dubious use case

@drawkcab@hachyderm.io I don't know about that. The sed situation is essentially the existence of an "away colours" delimiter. The TECO thing exists entirely to support terminals with no escape key by allowing the remapping of something else. "Note that when an ESCape surrogate is set, the designated character (when typed at the console) is received by TECO as an ESCape -- that character is no longer directly available at the keyboard."
