Gah! 'Probably' isn't the right word.
More reading and now I've got something along the lines of what I want
to do, but it's obviously not going to work:
sed '/BB/r file2' file1
This will dump the contents of file2 after each "BB" line in file1.
That's not what I'm after.
Is there a way in sed to read in one line at a time from file2 to
replace "BB" from file1 (as I explained earlier)?
