625451f9f4 Explicitly tell that one needs to start a context address with a
backslash if he/she wants to use a non-traditional delimiter, i.e.,
anything other than a slash.  That is, /abc/ works as is, but xabcx
needs to be spelled as \xabcx.

Add appropriate markup.

Bump Dd.

bdd72b703b Add case-insensitive matching to sed, using the 'I' flag, similarly to GNU sed.
For example,
	sed /foo/Id
	sed s/foo/bar/Ig

f6703c9c0a Change the semantics of -i (in-place editing) so that it treats
each file independently from other files.  The new semantics are
desired in the most of practical cases, e.g.: delete lines 5-9
from each file.

Keep the previous semantics of -i under a new option, -I, which
uses a single continuous address space covering all files to edit
in-place -- they are too cool to just drop them.

Add regression tests for -i and -I.

839af0c103 Add a -i option to sed(1) to do inplace editing, to give us an alternative to
Perl for such things.  The key difference to Perl is that a backup extension
*MUST* be specified, because on one hand it isn't recommended to have options
which optionally take a parameter, and on the other hand, it'd be slightly
unpleasent to implement proper handling for that.

The difference between this and the version posted to developers@ is that it
does handle multiple files in argv after the getopt(3) handling "correctly",
in that the inplace editing-specific code has been moved out to a function,
and that function is used beyond the first file in our linked list.

This option has been documented as FreeBSD-specific in the manpage.

c4d9468ea0 mdoc(7) police:
Avoid using parenthesis enclosure macros (.Pq and .Po/.Pc) with plain text.
Not only this slows down the mdoc(7) processing significantly, but it also
has an undesired (in this case) effect of disabling hyphenation within the
entire enclosed block.

3be5f1f5ce Add $Id$, to make it simpler for members of the translation teams to
track.

The $Id$ line is normally at the bottom of the main comment block in the
man page, separated from the rest of the manpage by an empty comment,
like so;

     .\"    $Id$
     .\"

If the immediately preceding comment is a @(#) format ID marker than the
the $Id$ will line up underneath it with no intervening blank lines.
Otherwise, an additional blank line is inserted.
