    We are attempting to use sed to remove blank lines from a stream with:

    sed '/^[ ]*$/d'

    where the brackets contain a space and a tab. This works with cygwin, but
    not on RedHat 8.

    Both systems report the sed version as 3.02

    I have two questions.

    1.) Does anyone know that this has been corrected in a newer version of sed?

    2.) Does anyone know of another way to match end of line with sed?
