- *vsed()* `vsed -i <file> -e <regex>`
Wrapper around sed that checks sha256sum of a file before and after running
the sed command to detect cases in which the sed call didn't change anything.
Takes any arbitrary amount of files and regexes by calling `-i file` and
`-e regex` repeatedly, at least one file and one regex must be specified.
Note that vsed will call the sed command for every regex specified against
every file specified, in the order that they are given.
> Shell wildcards must be properly quoted, Example: `vmove "usr/lib/*.a"`.
