ch sed -i fails

[SanketDG]

Doesnt show the description text

[learnbyexample]

yeah, that is known issue.. because for whatever reason, man sed has options and descriptions separated by blank line..

   --follow-symlinks

          follow symlinks when processing in place

   -i[SUFFIX], --in-place[=SUFFIX]

          edit files in place (makes backup if SUFFIX supplied)

   -l N, --line-length=N

          specify the desired line-wrap length for the `l' command

compare that to a sample from man ls

   -a, --all
          do not ignore entries starting with .

   -A, --almost-all
          do not list implied . and ..

   --author
          with -l, print the author of each file

I tried to handle both cases, but I wasn't getting it right.. it started breaking other working cases..
