7/16    How come
                some_program | sed 's/.*/&abc/'
        works, but not
                echo `some_program | sed 's/.*/&abc/'`
        in tcsh?
        \_ Try this:
                echo `some_program | sed 's/.\*/&abc/'`
           --- yuen
           \_ Doesn't work...
              \_ No idea.  Actually your original form already works for me in
                 tcsh.  -- yuen
                 \_ Turns out to be some output of some_program that
                    screwed it up.
