uutils sed is a work-in-progress Rust reimplementation of GNU sed, the stream editor for filtering and transforming text.

This project aims to be a drop-in replacement for GNU sed, supporting the full range of sed scripts and command-line options.

> **Note:** This project is still in early development. Many features are not yet implemented and behavior may differ from GNU sed.

# Goals

Implement a cross-platform, memory-safe sed that is compatible with GNU sed scripts and command-line interface.
