Thanks to Hardeep Bhogal, Steve Illgen, and David Lodge for their responses.
It appears that Linux uses the GNU sed which has more functionality than the
standard sed that comes with HP-UX. I downloaded the GNU sed, compiled it,
and it does work with the hex values.
Example:
File AAA contains one line:
123456
I execute the GNU sed as follows:
sed s/1/'\x32/ AAA
The output is now:
223456
Thanks,

Subject: [HPADM] using sed and a hex value substitution
Hello All,
A co-worker asked me why the following command does not work on HP-UX but
works on Linux.
A file called AAA has this one line in it:
123456
Command:
sed s/1/'\x32'/ AAA
The '\x32' is the hex value
The result:
x3223456
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
