You can suppress the default action of printing out the pattern space with -n switch
|I can't do this with sed because sed always adds a newline to the end of any pattern space.|
I could do that, but then how would I get output? The biggest thing is that sed always adds a newline to the end of anything it prints out, filling the terminal buffer alot sooner then I want.
But, like I said. I figured it out, and found out about the sed -u option, which makes use a line buffer instead of its normal block buffer.
