Display type:		SM

What were you trying to do?

What I would like to do is to indent the current through the last line
with "> ".  What I did was: .,$s/^\(.*[ ^I].*\)$/> \1/


What's wrong:

Everything works just fine on VAX stations.  But on RT's, the result is
that every line is changed to "> 1". 

What should have happened:

	it should have done what I wanted it to do.  (see part 1)

Please describe any relevant documentation references:

This question was asked in OLC by user "zchi".  The discuss meeting
ounix can be checked for the full log.
