wanted to learn shell using sed and awk as in the O'Reilly book.

It will work better if you learn the shell language using
a shell.

sed and awk commands have a lot of details that are particular
to those utilities.

When invoking those utilities from a shell command, you have to
understand how to quote the body of the awk or sed program properly so
that it's handled intact as a single argument, without the shell itself
interpreting any special characters.

I am working on scripts in Common Lisp using shell inside,
here's the link to the code, it's GPL2 :

In 2025, nobody is going to download and unpack tarballs you posted to
sourceforge to look at your code.

You might as well scratch it on the wall of your cave with a piece of
charcoal, and invite people to peruse it by the light of a torch.
